Congressman Randy Neugebauer has proven himself unfit to represent the people of Texas by voting to close the government. Further, he is not worthy to berate federal employees who were doing their job despite his vote to force them into furloughs.

At an August town hall meeting, Rep. Tom Latham (R-Iowa) said that supporting a federal government shutdown would be “irresponsible” and have a “huge, negative impact.” He even said he opposed a shutdown as a way to delay Obamacare. Now, he has time and again voted with the tea party for a government shutdown. Join Daily Kos and Progress Iowa in demanding that Congressman Tom Latham get back to work—and reopen the government without delaying Obamacare.

The law states that hearsay does not hold up in a court of law but that is exactly what is happening. No one has done any fact digging to collaborate his stories. The G.A.L. wrote a motion to the judge all because of something he said including a 4 page letter that was nothing but hearsay, assumptions and opinions. That is why he has full custody because with the letter and 4 other caseworkers saying the same thing I had no chance at fighting. I received only minimal visitation that lasted a couple months. She and her dad do not get along and when he gets frustrated he calls the police and says she is being "unruly" and to take her to JDC then she mostly lives in a group house for troubled teens. I prefer her there if she can't be with me because of her fathers verbal, mental and even physical abuse. No one will listen to my side of the story or my daughters. This is outrageous. People in these positions should know that they're two sides to every story and that there are bitter ex's out there. All my visitation was up to her father. When she in the group home I would attend parent groups and a mini, 15min session with my daughter once a week and that was all I got to see her for a while. I didn't see her for Thanksgiving, Christmas or new years. She went to the psychiatric ward for attempting suicide and he wouldn't let me visit her there either. When she was in JDC seemed to be the only place he could not stop visitation. He was also not telling me when her court hearing were or anything that was going on with her. I had to request a court appointed lawyer to get notified of her hearings. The first one I was notified of (4 months after he received full custody) the G.A.L. put through for a no contact order because of the medication I am prescribed and that the doctor insists that I stay on. The main thing is drugs and alcohol which I have not drank for 5 years and am currently in a program that I have been in for 3 years that has kept me off of opiates. As I mentioned earlier she has a 4yr old half brother. That case has been closed for almost a year on him and since my ex had something to do with the outcome of my son he lives with my cousin who is his guardian. When she got the letter for legal custody it was worded so that we could come up with our own arrangements. His guardian is very protective of him and wouldn't let me have him so much if I were so "unfit" My husband and I have him almost 4 days out of the week and wake up to go over and put him on the bus for pre-school. On the other hand I am so "unfit" I can't even see my 15yr old. I am afraid to mention this at any of the court hearings because my son has already been through enough and I want him to be left alone and out of "the system". All I ever wanted was my fair chance and I didn't think that was asking too much but I never got it and neither did Haeligh. I ask that this case and workers on the case be investigated for any way they might have broke the law or not done their job to the best of their abilities. Haeligh needs to receive some justice and have her entire family.

We desperately need help. We have clearly demonstrated that we are not capable of solving let alone addressing our own problems.

Taxis, Limos and sedan services that are registered with the MD PSC are expected to pay 25 cents per passenger for EVERY trip that you pass through or goes into the city!

As the world's #1 cooking show network, Food Network plays an important role in the choices consumers make every day. They have been silent about Genetically Modified Food, obviously in favor of their profit margin and to keep the advertising dollars coming in from the Big Food Industry. Tell Food Network to take a stand and say "NO to GMO!" or at least be honest and come out in favor of GMO's so we can "Say No" to them. Get off the fence Food Network! Take a stand!

I am a new student to skyline high school and I am African American. Im being expelled for something i did not do. Im being accused because I was one of the few people that was seen on a recording of a portion of the incident.

I took in two children who were not related to me. After jumping through hoops and getting guardianship. I realize that in West Virginia the laws are not up to date to protect children. In west Virginia you don't have to get a child medical or dental treatment unless it could cause them to die. It isn't considered abandonment to leave your children for mos unless you leave them in public places. And the only way you will get any help from any agency is if you are related to the child. My new little girl is 5. At some point she had 4 teeth knocked half out. She was never seen by a dentist. This poor little girl has had to have 4 tooth extractions, 23 stitches, 4 root canals,3 fillings and 4 caps. And she is not done. All because her mother didn't take the time to care. She is starting her vaccines that she should have gotten as a baby. She has been neglected for years and They wont make her parents accountable. We need to send a message that this is wrong.

My cross-country road trip to visit the Badlands, Mount Rushmore, Yellowstone, and Glacier National Parks has been completely ruined because of the shutdown of the national parks. I am a good citizen and a tax payer who is being unfairly punished. Please help us stand up for what is right and sign this petition to reopen Yellowstone National Park.
