  • The right way to govern Pennsylvania
    It is time for people living in the state to realize what poor choices our governor is making for us. We need to mount an attack on his unbelievable distorted vision on education. Don't let him ruin our educational system because he has spent that money elsewhere.

    FAU is cutting our core required classes to graduate and blaming it on the Legislative budget cuts.

  • student loan forgiveness
    This petition is about forgiving existing student loans, keeping college within reach without burying the next generation of educated members of our workforce under mountains of debt. A college education should be a right to everyone not only the privilaged and should never be a tool to make a profit off the less fortunate members of society who are attempting to better their lives through education

  • KEEP KIDS SAFE ACT!
    GOAL - 1 MILLION + PEOPLE!! My name is Josh Evans. I live in Springfield, Missouri. I feel that we need to improve the ways schools and families handle their kids. I believe that schools SHOULD NOT let the kids out of the building, unless a parent or legal guardian is there waiting for them. My thought is that if parents or guardians pick up their child, a faculty member stands outside and one by one dispatches a child to exit the building. If every school in the U.S. did that, children and students would be so much safer. I'm just wanting to get this out to government, and have them MAKE A STAND and KEEP OUR KIDS SAFE. That's why I started this page, the KEEP KIDS SAFE ACT, because I want to keep kids safe and away from predators and sex offenders. This page isn't just for elementary school students -- it's for EVERY CHILD WHO IS A STUDENT -- Preschool, elementary school, middle school, & high school. Please "LIKE" this page and let's get the word out.

  • Tax Write Off For Paying a Student Loan's Principal
    The amount paid toward a student loan's principal should be a tax deduction, not just the interest. This simple idea will encourage people to get an education to make America better. This idea will also put more money in the consumers' pocket and help grow our economy. Everyone with a student loan and the entire American economy will benefit from this plan.
