My name is Quinn Tran and I'm an undergraduate major in Computer Science at UC-Berkeley. I started this petition because of the way I've been unfairly treated by the Sutardja Center for Entrepreneurship & Technology and the Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research. First I was misclassified by the Department as a low-paid "Course Coordinator" when I was, in fact, doing Teaching Assistant duties, and when I raised this fact through a union grievance, the University retaliated against me by taking away many of my duties, excluding me from staff meetings, and discouraging contact with the IEOR department to resolve the issue. Retaliation is never okay and UC-Berkeley has a responsibility to ensure its undergraduate student-workers are correctly classified. Please sign on to support me. Thank you for your solidarity.

I simply would prefer to go to Disney or somewhere actually fun rather than Dave N Busters.

Teachers have massive responsibilities with crowded classrooms and low student funding in the state of Arizona. Teachers have to continue their education in order to renew their teaching certifications. Teachers are dealing with every aspect of a child’s life including emotional and social, as well as educating. Reward our teachers with a decent salary for their continued dedication to our most valuable resource, our children!

I am starting this petition as a student who is genuinely scared to go to school every day. With the regular school shootings that occur in the United States, I feel as though schools should be doing everything in their power to protect their students, starting with a separate resource officer for the high school.

The courageous students of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, are inspiring our nation with their determination to end senseless and preventable gun violence in the U.S. These students are survivors of the 17th shooting on a U.S. school campus in the first 43 days of 2018. They are demanding the immediate passage of commonsense gun safety laws—and are fearlessly calling out all lawmakers who answer their rightful demands with hollow promises. These students will not be silenced by a mounting right-wing media attack campaign to smear them personally and spread lies about their efforts. They are rejecting false solutions offered by Trump and lawmakers, such as a recent Trump suggestion to arm educators in schools. The Parkland students are standing strong, at the center of a powerful, emergent movement that's applying necessary and strategic pressure on Congress and Donald Trump. They are fighting for their safety. Our safety. Let's make sure they and federal lawmakers know that Americans across the country are standing shoulder to shoulder with the students, promising as they are to not yield until our schools and communities are safe from gun violence. Together, We say: YES to commonsense gun laws. And NO to the NRA and cowardly inaction by federal lawmakers. We say: Parkland students, we are with you, now and always!

SAVE Our Tuition Reimbursement The evolving landscape of higher education has changed the way working-students obtain degrees and certifications. “Non-traditional” students have a diversity of methods to pursue their continued education while working and contributing to the University of New Mexico Hospital (UNMH) system. It’s time for UNMH to catch up and cherish their employees seeking to further their education while working to serve the community they hold so dear. The University of New Mexico Hospital is an academic institution that aspires to Magnet Status; which is a designation indicating that they are “Nurse Friendly”. • UNMH recruits health care professionals by touting its great benefits, one of which is tuition reimbursement allowing employees to obtain higher degrees and National specialty licensure • UNMH recently decided to dramatically reduce reimbursement rates for clinical staff taking on-line classes and combined programs by almost 50% • The Hospital made this decision unilaterally without informing staff, seeking to understand the impact this would have on current employees, or having discussions with any of the key stakeholders! • Changing this policy in haste may jeopardize educational opportunities staff are currently pursuing or would otherwise be able to pursue in the future and may de-incentivize potential employees from applying to UNMH UNMH has always relied on the labels used on the UNM Bursar’s Office published tuition and fee schedule to reimburse courses taken outside the giant UNM university system, the same methodology was applied to courses in question. UNM now has a separate section on its tuition and fee schedule for a unique set of new online programs. For UNMH employees, all courses labeled as "online" were reimbursed based on the tuition and fee schedule specifically used for this select few UNM online programs, without consideration for the varied education programs working-students participate in.

The contract requests a 2% guaranteed annual raise and an additional 1% raise contingent on his annual review rating of highly effective. The Board repeatedly has found him highly effective, but it is unclear how his effectiveness is determined in any measurable fact other than the Board's opinion. Our District needs to consider the limited resources to provide for such raises to administrative positions and the best interest of our children from ineffective leadership. The Board continues to find him highly effective, but my experience has been less than favorable.

I am a high school student a junior, that fears the debt that will cripple my chances for being mobile in the economy for the future

College students have their first experience living in a completely new environment; it should not be exploited. NXNW does not care for individuals; instead, it cares for how they can take their money.

Join Joe Mackey in demanding that the State of Indiana stop diverting public school funds away from public schools. Not 1 dollar should go to unregulated, privileged private schools in Indiana! The state government continues to divert funding away from our local school systems and we can be a voice of change here! - Authorized by Joe Mackey for Congress

As a community member and voter in NYS, I am contacting you to request a foundation aid adjustment. State aid to Syracuse City School District (SCSD) students has not met their needs. SCSD students, among the poorest in the nation, live with 1/3 the average annual income of other NYS residents, and enrollment in the district is growing and projected to continue to rise by 2.7% next school year- yet our state funding does not reflect these factors. The foundation aid formula is well designed and should be running to fund all NYS students equitably. Please address the poverty and program needs of these 21,000+ students so they can be adequately supported as they aim to graduate ready for college and careers. I request that you, provide at least an additional $12 million in state aid, freeze charter school growth that takes much needed money from public education, do not approve a 2% cap, continue funding community schools, increase and expand mental health services for students, and expand CTE funding to include ninth grade students.
