• Equal Access to a Driver's License for all Pennsylvania Residents
    It seems that the enemies of the liberties and rights protected in the United States have forgotten the history of the city of Philadelphia and of this great state of Pennsylvania. Ignoring this historical legacy, in 2009 the state of Pennsylvania cancelled the Driver's Licenses of thousands of people, of every race, that had been obtained legally. These cancellations have impacted negatively the economy of our state and our public and national security. It is the rights and well-being of the people that we are ultimately concerned with. Driving does not just mean access to an automobile, but also the right to move freely, go to our jobs and thus bring food to the table for our families, the right to lead a dignified life. The roads and highways are safer when everyone behind the wheel has a license, insurance and identification. We request a Public Hearing in Harrisburg to The Transportation Committee of The House of Representatives, to make the Proposal HB 1450 become a Law that will recover the right to a driver's license for every person who has been denied one as part of a cruel political game.

  • Pass The Low Income Solar Act
    1. For homeowners with suitable roofs this legislation would provide grants to help reduce the upfront costs of installing solar panels. For renters or families unable to install solar on their roofs the bill provides loans to solar developers to connect low-income families to solar either physically, or virtually through the construction of community solar facilities. In all cases this bill encourages job training to local communities. 2. Promotes diversity in the workforce by prioritizing loans for woman- and minority owned small businesses. 3. Sets aside a portion of funds for developing solar economies in Appalachia, Indian tribal lands, and Alaskan native communities.

  • Common Ground: Homeless Depot Shelter
    This is a personal appeal to the conscience of our community to put yourselves in the place of the thousands of men, women, even children in our community who every night go to sleep, unlike you or me, without a place to call their own, and therefore are forced to break the law in order to sleep.

  • CalTrans: How many must die before traffic signal installed?
    I am scared that one of my son's friends may get killed crossing on Foothill Blvd. trying to get to and from school. Or one of the many homeless crossing there may get hit or killed. I have seen too many cars racing down this stretch of highway. It must STOP!!!

  • Safe Guards for MBTA Employees Against Violent Passengers
    This petition is to build safe guards for the MBTA drivers who are visible to the public day-to-day. The MBTA cannot expect drivers to collect fares or throw people off the bus for lack thereof and not expect issues like the one that arose with the veteran driver having a huge cup of liquid thrown in her face for doing her job. The MBTA needs a better safe guard for their employees or else not expect the drivers to collect the fare. The public is very hard to deal with and drivers get no mercy at all. If no safe guards are going to be put in place, then a transit police officer should be assigned to each bus for the employee’s safety when dealing with unruly and violent passengers.

    On September 9th and September 22nd, City Council will be meeting to discuss the 2015-2016 budget, including a proposed 3% increase to our already high water bills. There are numerous issues that need be addressed before an increase is even considered, including the inconsistent billing cycles, old meters, meters not being read every month, transparency, staff issues, and policies in place that are blatantly unfair.
