Please pass legislation that the National Security Advisor has to get Senate Confirmation!

In previous legislation, the State of Illinois has outlined the specific language and parameters for home-based bakers. The Cottage Law stipulates all baked goods allowed and deemed safe and all baked goods not allowed such as creamed pies as one an example. The home baked items have already cleared all food safety hurdles determined by health and food safety professionals. These pre-qualified home baked items are allowed to be sold at Farmers Markets statewide, including in Whiteside County. Home bakers provide high quality and innovative products which should make our rural communities proud and more inviting. The Cupcake Law provides a cap of $1,000 of, direct, home sales per month for the home baker. This cap prevents undue competition to the professional bakery. The products our home bakers make available are in many ways superior to that which is available to the residents of rural Whiteside Co Communities. Home bakers are able to use higher quality product while taking more time to prepare and provide for specific dietary needs on demand. Home bakers are committed to the quality of their products, ingredients and committed to food safety and sanitation. Many IL businesses start small and out of a home. Squelching entrepreneurship is counterproductive to the heart of small business. HB5354 must be adopted by Whiteside County to keep this spirit alive in IL.

New York is one of only a handful of states that has no early voting option. New York not only lacks same-day voter registration—but it requires voters to register at least twenty-five days before Election Day. New York also makes it hard to request an absentee ballot too. This is why there are long lines on Election Day, and why voting is as much of a mess in New York as the subway system. But we can change it! Governor Cuomo's budget includes funding for early voting and automatic voter registration. The Assembly budget includes only early voting, and the Senate budget includes vague language about voting. Budget negotiations are happening NOW. Tell Governor Cuomo to stand up for us and reject any budget that doesn't improve voting for New Yorkers.

This petition is to raise awareness of this opportunity to register young people to vote on March 24. Increasing voter registration among our youth should increase the chance that we can change the Congress and the state legislatures to Blue!

Many Americans have been deeply disturbed by the uncertainty of the 2016 Presidential election and of the subsequent chaos. We need a non partisan body to inform us what actually occurred and if there were any crimes committed by American Citizens! Let the truth emerge!

On Friday night, we learned Attorney General Jeff Sessions fired Andrew McCabe -- the Deputy Director of the FBI -- just two days before he was set to retire. At this moment, we don’t know all the facts or the reasoning behind this decision, but Sessions’ and Trump's involvement in this process raise serious questions. We need answers. I am calling on Jeff Sessions to testify before the Judiciary Committee to answer questions on the firing of McCabe. He must explain the Department of Justice’s process and whether this is an attempt to target, punish, or silence those investigating Russia and the Trump campaign. On Saturday morning, one of Trump’s attorneys used McCabe’s firing to call for an end to the Russia investigation and the firing of Bob Mueller. That’s unacceptable and deeply dangerous. We can't allow partisan or personal influence to taint the Russia investigation or undermine the hard work of our law enforcement officials. That’s why we have to make our voices heard now and demand Sessions testify next week.

I would like to see an end of these irrational and petty attacks against officials in our government who do not agree with the president or his policies. These schoolyard bullying tactics are not becoming of our president, our government or America in general. This is NOT what makes America Great! Andrew McCabe worked 21 years for the FBI and he did everything in his power to make this country safe and secure and to preserve the America and the American values that the FBI was designed to preserve. It is NOT ACCEPTABLE that he be punished in such an obviously cruel and needlessly vindictive way. We, the undersigned demand that his full retirement benefits be returned to him immediately and in full!

Unfortunately, the Edgewood borough has been discriminating against me and I've had to create this petition which will be followed by a discrimination Lawsuit and civil case to get money back plus towing fees. In addition I will be filing a freedom of information act request for amount of money the Chief Messina fraudulently took from residents and said residents were never paid back or notified.

I am outraged that a public servant with great integrity and honor has been fired TWO days before he was to receive his pension simply because of the President's injured ego and his desire to further obstruct justice in the Russian investigation.

Dr. Carson is totally inexperienced in his cabinet position. He is over-spending his limited furniture budget like a private corporation, not a govt. agency.

Deadline is probably early April. If the Senate confirms Gina Haspel, then we as a country are condoning torture. I have three cousins who I know died at the hands of the Nazis, and a very dear cousin who barely escaped. As citizens, our responsibility is to convince our representatives to vote against racism and torture.

If we don't get rid of this delusional generic human being we all suffer the consequences .
