When becoming a senior, the students have more to focus on such as college and thus need more time away.

Organizing for Sierra Leone is an umbrella group of Sierra Leoneans seeking good governance, accountability and a better quality of life for Sierra Leoneans wherever they may be but most importantly for citizens residing in Sierra Leone. Most members and supporters of this organization would be better served if this petition results in a resolution that will solve this injustice. This is a petition to give Sierra Leoneans or dual citizens of Sierra Leone their constitutional right to vote in elections for every public office in Sierra Leone. Sierra Leoneans in the diaspora are interested to make contributions in the area of governance in Sierra Leone by seeking a leadership that can explore and deliver a vision to attain Sierra Leone's fullest potential. Diasporans have contributed immensely to the economy of Sierra Leone by their remittances to support family and small businesses. Diasporans can't just remain outside spectators or a pool for sustenance of an increasingly dependent population. Diasporans seek an economy where the people are offered tools and an enabling environment to attain their highest potential that would improve on their quality of life. We can partner with our fellow countrymen at home to select leaders with a vision and commitment to stem the regression in our quality of life, create upward mobility in creating real hope to fulfill our collective dream of Sierra Leone as the paradise God created for all of us. Please sign this petition to give a voice to a large segment of our countrymen disenfranchised because of their circumstances or due to a lack of vision to tap this valuable portion of our human resources. We demand our rightful heritage as Sierra Leoneans as well as our constitutional right to vote as citizens. May our dreams become reality for a better Sierra Leone. Organizing for Sierra Leone.

We all have used vaping to stop using traditional cigarettes. Now the FDA wants to push us back to tobacco with the proposed deeming regulation on August 8, 2014. This all begs the question, "Why does the US Government want me to start smoking cigarettes again?!"

1. the industrial and single family residential land uses included in the Interchange Plan for the 1,000 Acres conflict with the Boone County Area Comprehensive Plan that preserves agricultural uses until the year 2030. 2. Boone County Zoning Ordinance as administered by the Area Plan Commission satisfactorily protects the 1,000 Acres from “spot zoning” changes without the Interchange Plan. 3. Farmland is developed land and must be protected.

Luigi Del Bianco lived the American Dream by coming to America and becoming the Chief Carver on Mount Rushmore. Luigi's job was in carving the "refinement of expression" in the faces. When you look at those 4 presidents, you are looking at the talent of a very gifted artist. This humble immigrant also is my grandfather. Even though our family has documentation that proves his value to the work, the National Park Service refuses to formally recognize his important title and great achievement. This is patently wrong on so many levels. Let's get the NPS to do the right thing!

The firing of Dr. Jolibois because of his strong advocacy in behalf of the Haitian people set's a very dangerous precedent that will have a chilling effect on academic freedom and employees rights on campus. FIU should be an institution that promotes the highest standards in ethics and discrimination because of ones views or ethnic origins should not be tolerated. It is urgent that the University take action today and rehire Dr. Jolibois be rehired immediately.

Preventing a Republican from taking one of the highest elected offices in Hidalgo County and keeping Texas Blue!

This issue is about getting someone (who has become a very important progressive voice) his own show on a major, mainstream television network.

Hello Senator Franken, I would like to have your help in finding a way to let Norwegian Airlines offer great rates in the U.S. Market. Congress is trying to block them as it would have a huge impact on airfare to/from Europe. Currently airfare is averaging between $1200 - $1600 round trip from MSP to most EU cities. When Norwegian Airlines are allowed in, the rates would be cut in half. Back down to the more reasonable rates of $600 - $800 round trip as they were just a few years ago. https://www.norwegian.com/us I know this would have a huge impact on the federal taxes that are collected for each ticket. As it stands now for an average ticket of $1300 nearly 50% of that ticket cost is TAXES. So this is why it will be so difficult to fight.. All the people of the USA deserve the chance to fly off to Europe. Not just the select few who can afford it. My college age children would love to go, but at $1300 - $1500 for just airfare it makes it nearly impossible. Please see what can be done! Thank you Sue Thompson Steenhoven 952-448-7716

Two young girls were molested for most of their childhood which started at a campground. Once this man was out of prison, he was able to come right back to the campground. He stayed 9 days and never registered and by law he was supposed to if his stay was longer then 7 days. Molesters love power, control and destruction. They get their kicks in pushing boundaries. I too remember as a child of a man who befriended all the children only to molest. Campgrounds should be a safe family place. Child sex offender awareness needs to spread. We need to educate and protect from these offenders. 1 in every 4 girls and 1 in every 6 boys are molested by the age of 18. Not all offenders are strangers.

My dad had a hip replacement about 8 months ago, and I am a Freshman at FSU. I have personally parked in these disabled parking spaces before and helped my dad to the stadium. By taking away these parking spaces, my dad will have to walk an unnecessary distance. By moving these spaces, FSU is making the lives of people with disabilities that much harder.

We need to stop the cruel way of taking of a life of a Bear. This barbaric practice needs to stop and there is no need for it to be seen on TV or to promote the killing of bears or any other form of life. This is not acceptable behavior to be seen on neither the History Channel nor any other television show.
