I am over 65. I do not need Medicaid, thank the US government. But there are so many others who need this. Let's help them get it, no matter what the Florida legislature says. If we do not take that Medicaid money, other states will get ours just like the high speed rail! Don't be stupid.

My petition is for affordable housing for what I consider the "lower middle class" in NYC. Landlords and rent guidelines are so biased. If you earn over $40,000 you're usually disqualified from affordable housing lotteries. You have no other choice but to waste money on broker's, security deposits and at least 1st months rent. Rents are sky rocketing in NY and after paying $1,300 or more in rent along with other rising costs in New York we hardly have any money left over for anything else.

Dear Gov. Brown: With the failing struggle to maintain sprawl draining our municipalities' budgets, we must do everything we can to promote bicycling for local travel, which will reduce wear and tear on infrastructure and alleviate road and parking congestion. Yet careless motorists frequently "buzz" cyclists, with often dire results--worse, we often see posts and comments erroneously claiming that cyclists have no right to the road, and that it is permissible to engage in this sort of intimidation against them. Your repeated vetoes of three-foot passing bills have sent a signal to the population that cyclists are expendable and that only drivers matter to you. Please support--or initiate!--the next safe passing bill to protect the thousands of cyclists who are doing their part to protect our environment and our economy both. Note: A proposed amendment to AB 1371 would effectively result in a safe-passing law if signed by Gov. brown.

Cronic Homelessness is a problem in the District of Columbia

San Francisco's North East Mission district is an especially unique and complex mix of light industrial and manufacturing type businesses as well as residences with some retail/commercial businesses in varying degrees of proportion. The MTA is currently working on a parking management plan for this area. Parking meters and time limits alone cannot adequately address all the diverse problems of mixed-use neighborhoods such as ours. San Francisco has the ability and the capacity to create a parking management program in the Mission that serves local residents and businesses, and advances the City’s goals. Our hope is that a carefully thought out, innovative and diverse parking plan will improve parking for both businesses and residents.

The closing of the Yemassee, South Carolina's main post office has seriously affected the people of the town and surrounding areas. We have to travel 7 miles to the Earlybranch, South Carolina's post office to get our mail. Working people cannot get their mail because the hours of the post office make it very difficult to pickup mail. In addition, the post office closes at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday which also makes it very hard to get mail. We are concerned because not everyone has transportation to get to Earlybranch. We cannot get any answers as to when or if the post office is going to reopen or relocate. We simply cannot afford to have the post office closed indefinitely because too many people depend on and need it. In conclusion, we desperately need our town's post office and asked that this matter be looked into and remedied in a timely manner.

Reinstate the "STARR" program eliminated by the legislature and signed by Governor Brian Sandoval in 2011 in an effort to fund other critical services. Low income seniors and retirees in NEVADA struggle to survive now with an inflation and the high cost of rent, food, and medical care, we need the tax assistant/rent rebate back.

We need more assistance for the poor and less fortunate.

These so called entitlements a actually paid benefits.

I am being affected by repaying taxes on the money I have paid taxes on throughout by worklife. It causes financial stress, this repaying taxes takes fund from the household. We down here in the less than 25 thousands are unable to meet daily living expenses with a gallon of milk cost $6.00; eggs $5 and bread $5. Where is the America that is fair and give all a fair chance?
