• Governor Branstad: Stop the closing of Linn County Options
    My son Hunter works at Linn County Options, which is being subject to change, closing or restructuring because of the Holmens act. We do not want our choices taken away from us or made for us. Hunter loves going to work everyday at Options and I love it too for pure simple reason of security and safety that he could not achieve outside of a controlled work enviroment.

  • Fund As One Ministries of Gaston County
    As One Ministries was started by a member of the community operating out of the back of her truck. A person who cared enough about the homeless population to build an organization that serves several thousand homeless people each year. They provide comprehensive services that help to feed, clothe, bathe and house homeless people in Gaston County. Without the services the homeless population in Gaston County have very few resources to rely on.

  • Supplement SSI for Special Needs Children
    Let's ask North Carolina to supplement SSI to assist parents of minor children whose disability prevents them from working full time or working at all. $721 is not enough especially when food stamps are negatively impacted!! This is NOT a handout it is much needed assistance for parents and/or caregivers who face the everyday challenges of caring for a child with special needs.

  • Dan Sullivan and Mark Begich: Pledge to Oppose Social Security Cuts
    Many politicians in Washington are considering cuts to Social Security. Some have proposed outright benefit cuts, while others have tried to pass changes to the formula like "chained CPI." We want to ensure that Dan Sullivan and Senator Mark Begich stand on the side of Alaskans' retirement security, not with Wall Street or any party leader.

  • Special Education Adult Students are Left Behind
    I have a Daughter that is Special Needs Adult. For MANY years we have watched cuts being made by our government. There are many parents who go through this. These are the people who truly need your support. People with a disability often never have a voice or never get to vote on issues that would impact them. You are their voices. It is time to make a stand. Be that voice. Parent

    Dozens of residents will lose their homes and several businesses will be shuttered in hopes of possibly shaving a few seconds of L riders' daily commutes. There are other less costly solutions for adding capacity without causing such long-term destruction to the neighborhood.
