If you have been affected by the American hostage situation that started TWO MONTHS ago on Dec 28th when Congress voted against an Unemployment Extension get out this Tuesday March 4th, 2014!! 1 PM eastern time. Contact local media, get friends and family and be SEEN somewhere! DC would be great but not possible for all so head to your Capital, a local Government office, Office of a Nay Senator in your area. No one in America should be punished for Working, paying taxes and losing their job. For all the assistance we provide for the WORLD I am baffled that our leaders would vote against putting food on their neighbors table. They don't agree with the time frame to recover from the loss. Whats next telling someone with a disease they did not recover in time so no more medical treatment? Understand some may have taken advantage. All should not be punished because of some! I will never believe if one of their children came home from school stating cafeteria is closed until further notice due to some children stealing, they would send them to school the next day. No they would fight for them to eat as they deserve! They forget the 2 million Individuals effected are a part of a family. Making that number so much higher, INCLUDING CHILDREN. Those children now feeling their parents worry, seeing them sick with stress, selling items from their home because its the only choice to get a couple dollars. No internet for school work. Its been turned off. No phone to make emergency calls when someone falls over with a panic attack its been disconnected. The car is gone! Family pet has been turned over to a shelter because they can't be taken care of either. The list goes on and on and in American this should not be happening and definitely not this long. This is real, we are human lives, that live in a Country that Pledges we are ONE NATION and there is Liberty and Justice FOR ALL but we haven't seen it so they need to see us and see how real we are!

Our Goal is to demonstrate the need for more mountain biking recreational opportunities, particularly throughout the Wasatch. With this support we plan on acquiring funding in order to build new or renovate existing bike parks and trails. The rapid increase in cyclists and the lack of safe quality trail lends the area to be a perfect candidate to increase biking opportunities. Getting more people outside recreating, playing, and enjoying themselves in the wonderful outdoors we have just outside our doorsteps.

The Historic Landmark Commission of Salt Lake City has rejected the ability to make necessary changes to improve the look and overall usefulness of Trolley Square as a commercial enterprise. They made this decision ignoring the overwhelming support and cooperation with neighborhoods, investors and community activists; undermining the huge benefits that local businesses need to maintain and keep this historic site. This petition is to demand the allowance of these proposed changes to Trolley Square so that this local treasure can keep up with modern shoppers, and enhance the neglected area of downtown Salt Lake City. Join the movement of local workers and owners that demand that The Historic Landmark Commission of Salt Lake City support necessary changes for Trolley Square that help strengthen Local businesses.

The "Possession of Dangerous or Wild Animals" bill would trump the certifications that Catoctin Zoo has attained and maintained over its 50+ year existence. We would be unable to contribute to the critical breeding efforts of endangered Snow Leopards, Amur Leopards, Jaguars, Tigers, Lions, Ochreata Macaques, Squirrel Monkeys, Patas Monkeys, Sun Bears, Foosa, Tamarins, or any other monkeys, lemurs or marmosets. Such a ban would force us to STOP educating and spreading conservation to tens of thousands of school children with hands on learning tools – experiences that lead to lasting connections with animals. Deadline Wednesday Feb 26th. More info at cwpzoo.com.

The bitter feud in Congress is hurting millions of Americans. Veterans with bachelor's degrees, single mothers and fathers, experienced professionals, and hard-working Americans are falling through the cracks--they are suffering. Finding work, even a minimum wage job, is an extremely daunting task. Some Americans have to lie about their qualifications to even get an interview for a minimum wage job. Some Americans are past their 50th interview and are still looking for work. Service members, especially, did not come home to sit on the couch and collect unemployment--they are suffering. Help them. Help us. Renew Emergency Unemployment Compensation. In this economic climate, it's a vital resource!

As of February 21st, H.R. 4058, designed to protect some of our nation's most statistically "at-risk" youth, has an 8% chance of being enacted. A petition with the names of U.S. citizens who would like to see this passed can provide incentive for our lawmakers to approve the bill in the Committee of Ways and Means, then in the House & Senate, and ultimately by President Barack Obama. Please read through the bill and add your name if your choose to. Thanks for being informed and aware!

Zoning Ordinances are hugely influential on the day to day life of the average citizen effecting how we grow our businesses, what we live next to, and how we treat our natural resources. This process is far too important for the County to side step proper procedures for public participation and involvement. We deserve to have a publicly vetted Comprehensive Plan for Northampton's future that everyone has had a chance to weigh in on. Shorekeeper will be presenting these petitions to county officials before public comment begins March 11th.

I've been the victim of stalking for the last 4 years and still today. Law enforcement has told me that he has to physically do something to me for them to really doing any more beside take my police reports. The fact I haven't been in a relationship with him limits what legally can be done. Stalking doesn't seem to be of importance here in Texas but for me my life and those around me are suffering everyday. so please send this letter to Texas government and help get this law identified in Texas

Our elected officials have neglected our infrastructure far to long. Continuing to do nothing will lead to a catastrophic economic failure in the near future. We spend more on our military than the next five biggest military nations combined. We can maintain our military superiority and still cut spending, all we need is leaders to recognize that this "corporate welfare" needs to end.

The state of California needs a long-term strategy to supply metro areas with an ongoing need for water for municipal purposes. The reservoirs of the northern part of the state should be preserved for agricultural use, recreational uses like fishing and boating. The state's history of wet and dry cycles is well documented and not likely to change. Therefore the time to act is now.
