Europe has already fought back against powerful chemical companies and took a big step to protect bees by putting into effect a ban of the top bee-killing “neonic” pesticides. Now it’s our turn! Join Friends of the Earth and our allies in demanding that the EPA take immediate action to protect bees! Bees are critical in producing the majority of our food crops and the evidence is mounting that Bayer and Syngenta’s pesticides are a key contributor to mass bee die-offs. However, the EPA continues to ignore scientists -- even those employed by the EPA -- and has delayed action until 2018. But the bees can’t wait -- and neither can we! U.S. beekeepers have been consistently losing 40-100 percent of their hives. This winter, beekeepers are likely facing yet another season of historic bee die offs. We can’t let the EPA wait another four years to address this crisis. Please take action today and tell the EPA to ban bee-killing pesticides.

As an advocate for pregnant women I'm seeing this situation get worse over the years, as the riding population increases. Disabled persons, pregnant women and those with small children are not given priority seating. It's a simple fix: Awareness.

I believe GMO food is extremely dangerous for human consumption. I do not want any of the people I love eating GMO food without knowing that it is GMO. I think is only fair to give us the people the tools to make Informed decisions by requiring labeling.

This Website posts and promotes criminal activities and dangerous challenges (such as the popular "fire challenge" by posting graphic/disturbing videos of young people of all ages (even minors). This website is dangerous to our youth and degrading to the culture that is Hip Hop.

Our restaurant's location, 2030 W. Montrose, Chicago located 1 block west of Damen Ave., has been listed in a "no alcohol" moratorium since BEFORE the prohibition, making this ruling antiquated. It would behoove the State of Illinois and the city of Chicago to lift this ban and allow for a beer and wine license. Our hours of operation are after 5:00pm. We are currently a BYOB restaurant, which offers no return revenue for the state of Illinois, the city of Chicago or our small establishment. We have been in business since 2007

New York City has been home to a business sector that is unique due to its lack of corporate chains, and a diverse population that can always somehow find a way to make it in NYC. All of that has changed over the last decade, as commercial property owners have been allowed to raise rents beyond a level that small businesses can afford, and renters are pushed out of their homes and communities to make way for wealthy tenants. Rent control laws must be rewritten to account for inflation and higher costs of living, so that New York can keep its diversity and integrity intact.

Lincoln Village is one of the major development parcels in our community, and it is set to return to being one of our most important activity and amenity centers. We have seen the center decline over the years, in part because of the changed landscape of highway infrastructure surrounding it. It has become buried in the adjacent highway. For this reason, many tenants have either failed at the center or have chosen to or had to relocate to other properties. Updated, visible signage will help tenants like the ones we have lost be seen on the site so that patrons can find them and utilize their businesses. Although we know the Board has been very cautious in the past about allowing increased sign heights on any property, we believe that in this location taller, larger, and more unique signs will not create any blemish whatsoever on the surrounding landscape while greatly benefiting the ability of Lincoln Village’s tenants to thrive. In fact, we think that attractive signage at this site will actually serve to enhance the landscape and improve it.

Oppies Law is a common law just like the Amish common laws. This will allow cannabis and hemp to be used and have the same guidelines of a common law.

The Jolly Rooster was a Live Oak icon for many years. He stood proudly on a building located at the intersection of our towns only stoplight. You could give directions to out of towners based solely on their proximity to this colossal Cockalorum. Then he disappeared..... We want him back!

We believe that before a death sentence is carried out by the Brooklyn Public Library on the Brooklyn Heights / Business Branch that it be acknowledged on the Brooklyn Public Library website who built the building that is sentenced to death.
