TIRED OF THE CRAP DEM. REP. AND IND. HAVE BEEN FEEDING THIS COUNTRY FOR YEARS. ITS NOTT THE GOOD OLE BOYS LAST I REMEMBERED IT WAS THE U.S.A. . BY THE WAY WE FEEL THE U.S. STANDS FOR US....

Recently the Bentonville District Court has been denying record request that are important to Arkansas Employers and their representatives for employment purposes. We believe this is in violation of the intent of Administrative Order 19 and the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act. This action has repercusions to Arkansas Citizens as it is delaying their work start date. We as employers rely on these background checks to protect our buiness, employee and customer safety. We ask you to address this situation and clairify the proper interpretation of Administrative Order 19 to allow access to these records by our Background Screening Companies .

One year ago on March 29, 2017, EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt decided that our children’s health is less important than Dow Chemical’s profits. He revoked a ban on Dow’s nerve gas pesticide chlorpyrifos, shortly after meeting with Dow executives. Pruitt’s willingness to poison our communities to help Big Ag makes him unfit to serve as EPA Administrator. The evidence is clear: We need Congress to hold Pruitt accountable and kick him out of the EPA.

The Trump administration is willing to do anything to hold on to power and the people need to draw a red line. Fire Mueller or Pardon any of the Mueller investigations quarry or interfere in any of the many investigations into Trump, Trumps family, or Trump Co and we will act. And since Greed is the only thing that motivates the POTUS a General Strike is the only way to make him listen. A government of by and for the people! That means its our job as the people of America to put a check on the government when it gets out of hand!

Small business owners have been requesting custom flags since we relocated to Delray, 15 years ago. Residents have expressed the desire to display sports or holiday banners in their front yard. Selfishly, we’d like to work with our community like we have with the Delray Beach Marketing Cooperative. #shoplocal #madeinAmerica

Trump nominated Peter Wright to lead the EPA’s program that manages more than a thousand Superfund toxic waste sites. Wright is a Dow Chemical lawyer and former Monsanto employee. The Senate can reject Wright’s nomination. But we need your help to convince it to act!

The Trump administration wants to rush in a question [1] about citizenship status during the national census. Guess where they got the idea? From infamous Trump adviser Kris Kobach, who represents anti-immigrant hate groups. Of all the ways democracy is threatened by Donald Trump, an unfair and inaccurate census could have the most dramatic long-term impact on public services and congressional district borders. Inaccurate census counts give an unfair share of funding and representation to low-density, rural areas, which is why a bipartisan group of 161 mayors wrote the administration to plead that they not tamper with the census questions and risk an inaccurate count. [3] The more people who are afraid [4] to talk to a census taker -- either because of their own immigration status or that of someone else in the household -- the fewer congress members, the less federal money for schools and other public services, our bustling urban areas will get. States like Texas [5] and California will be very hard hit, as well as every large city, in any state. Sign today to join the chorus and make them hear us. Tell Wilbur Ross to do his job and serve the American people, all of us, not just extremists in the Republican Party.

The biggest threat to our democracy that nobody is talking about is the real possibility of a rogue Constitutional convention -- empowering the far right to radically reshape the Constitution, our laws, and our country. If just a few more states sign on to a “Article V convention” for a balanced budget amendment, there’s no limit to the damage they can do. By exploiting never-before used provisions in Article V of our Constitution, 28 states have already called for a Constitutional convention, and they only need 6 more to succeed. Once convened, there are no rules on the books to limit or constrain what comes next -- which means unelected, unaccountable delegates, many of them picked by extremist state legislatures, would have free reign to rewrite our entire system of government. No law, no Constitutional provision would be safe. Ending Social Security and Medicare. Blocking a woman’s right to choose. Rolling back marriage equality. Gutting the EPA and labor protections. Repealing Obamacare. Undermining First Amendment protections for free speech and a free press. An Article V convention would let right-wing extremists write their entire agenda into our Constitution, with zero checks and balances. We need your help to stop them. This is the worst possible time to open this Pandora’s Box. Unlimited money in politics and partisan gerrymandering have given Republican extremists total control of a majority of state legislatures. When one party controls the White House, Congress, a majority of state legislatures, and the Supreme Court, it’s hard to imagine a fair process. Even worse, big money interests like the Koch Brothers and ALEC are investing heavily in the push for a Constitutional convention -- which means they’d be calling the shots if one happens. That means the result of any Article V convention would be a not only a massive swing to the right in our nation’s politics -- it would embed these assaults on some of our most cherished rights in the Constitution, creating an incredibly difficult hurdle to overcome, setting us back generations, if not destroying our democracy altogether. With just a few states to go until the two-thirds majority needed, the time to speak out is NOW. Please add your name today and tell lawmakers in your state to REJECT calls for an Article V convention.

It doesn't matter whether you're a working parent, student, senior or service member -- everyone deserves an opportunity to get to the polls and vote when it’s convenient. That's why policies like Early Voting, a common sense solution already enacted in 37 states, are so important. But when it comes to voting rights -- New York lags behind the rest of the nation. Right now, Common Cause New York is leading to bring Early Voting to their state, so that New Yorkers can exercise their basic democratic rights without unnecessary barriers. Now, it's up to New York Governor Andrew Cuomo whether this common sense solution is enacted. He's meeting with legislative leaders are meeting in Albany this week to finalize the state budget, and it's absoutely critical that they commit to to fully fund Early Voting. Gov. Cuomo promised to pass Early Voting earlier this year, and included the money to enact it in his budget. But now, we're hearing reports from budget negotiations that Early Voting funding has been cut -- even though 65% of New Yorkers support it. Eligible voters should be able to cast their ballot on a day that's convenient for them, without worrying about choosing between their work, their family and their vote. So if Cuomo won't fight for Early Voting, we need to make sure he knows the whole nation is watching. Add your name today to tell Gov. Cuomo -- we expect you to stand up and fight for every voter's right to be heard, and make sure Early Voting is fully funded for New Yorkers.

My family was unaware of any law prohibiting what we believed to be a perfectly reasonable pet - a pair of miniature pigs. These pigs were full-grown, and were no bigger than an English Bulldog. A resident in the historic district of Opelika has recently brought new light to an antiquated law which states “no hogs shall be kept within the city limits”, and had made the case that this includes even miniature pet pigs that are kept as indoor pets, and not livestock hogs that are raised for food/sale to market, which in my understanding, was the intent of the law. My family’s beloved pets were taken at the financial and extreme emotional expense of myself, as well as my wife and 3 young children. This is just not right, re-defining a law based solely on the objection of one citizen who had personal issues with another citizen, and simply used this law to enact revenge for other personal matters. It should have at least been put on a ballot and voted on, the same as any other law that would effect the lifestyle and rights of some citizens verses those of another citizen.

I am very concerned with the integrity of our Republic. I am alarmed by members of the House & Senate choosing party over country.

To pay tribute to those who have sacrificed from Woodside Queens, a neighborhood that has produced more then its share of heroes from the military; most highly-decorated service members (Congressional Medal of Honor winners, Silver Stars, bronze medals, Purple Hearts); 9/11 responders; commissioners; district attorneys; cops; firemen; FBI, DEA, and a host of other public servants. Woodside is truly a Neighborhood Of Heroes...
