This petition is to prevent a proposed fracking operation in the Flint Hills of Kansas and specifically near The National Tall Grass Preserve. Not only is this region a rare and unique ecosystem it also sits near the Humbolt fault zone a historically active fault zone that could be disturbed by high-pressure wastewater injection causing damaging earthquakes.

This is a simple answer and we would all feel like we are part of our democracy

Our children's education should be our state's top priority, and SB1431 is built under false pretenses. School voucher programs have undeniably negative consequences on the future of public schools, families of low-income status and the state’s general funds. Vouchers and tax credit scholarships appear to focus on giving parents better opportunities for their children, but disadvantages low-income families who cannot exercise the school choice option. Private schools are not held to the same standards as public schools, are not required to test students, and are not obligated to admit a student.

Our Elections were hacked. And our three-branch government only works if the checks and balances work. A major check on executive misdeeds is this Intel committee. Congressman Nunes, by obfuscating and cancelling the public hearings we need, is in dereliction of duty as a legislative Check on the Executive Branch. And he needs to step down or do his job.

I was unable to attend the caucus in my neighborhood. Many individuals have told me that the caucus in their neighborhood was difficult to attend because of many reasons. The reasons included work commitments, the need to take care of a family member, parking limitations, and poor access for folks with disabilities. In Washington State less than 5% of the voting population attended and selected Bernie Sanders as Washington States Candidate for President. When a non binding primary was held later 34-percent of Washington state voters selected Hillary Clinton. This sent mixed signals to our delegates and they did not follow the true will of the people. The only way to get a true representation of the will of the people is to let them vote. We need to embrace all democrats in order to be a strong party.

The Wells Reserve at Laudholm protects 2,250 acres of coastal lands in Maine; is a center for education, conservation, and research; and welcomes 30,000 visitors each year. Wells Reserve programs inspire thousands of people annually, help keep coastal waters clean, and ensure citizens have access to science-based knowledge to make important decisions. Two-thirds of Wells Reserve funding comes through the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The Trump Administration has proposed eliminating funding for the Wells Reserve and the other 28 reserves in the National Estuarine Research Reserve System. A loss of federal funds will devastate the Wells Reserve's education, conservation, and research programs and put the popular Laudholm campus at risk.

Every day we are subjected to Trump's Twitter rants. As he taps away on his smart phone in the wee hours of the morning, certain that he can distract from the truly important issues that confront us, the media amplify his messages over and over again, thereby fulfilling his maniacal need to divert attention away from his corrupt, destructive agenda. What if for one entire week, the mainstream media (CNN, WSJ, NYT, WaPO, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, BBC, NPR) ignored his tweets? No coverage at all for seven full days. Instead, the media focuses on the substantial news coming out of DC, essentially sending the message to Trump that he cannot control the news cycle of the day. Sign the petition to start this "Trump Twitter Blackout."

The entire African American community is affected by the lasting wounds of slavery which in effect is "robbing America of unrealized potential"

Last week Mexican presidential candidate Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador filed a complaint with the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights against President Donald Trump's planned border wall and his administration's treatment of immigrants. Lopez Obrador said he expects the commission to "speak out in accordance with the law to protect immigrants from the harassment they are suffering since Trump took office." We join the National Regeneration Movement (Moreno) in Mexico in its request for a hearing before the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights to combat the two executive orders issued on January 25 by President Trump, called "Improving Public Security in the Interior of the United States" And "Improvements in Border Security and Immigration." The Mexican leaders believe these orders “violate the presumption of innocence, ignore the right to asylum, ignore due process, omit protections relating to migrant children, have a discriminatory content, encourage the collective expulsion of foreigners without attending to the particular conditions of each case. “In addition, such orders make foreigners "deportable strangers" without having to be accused of having committed a crime, that is to say, without there being any charges against them, since it is enough for an immigration officer to consider that in the past they could Have committed any unlawful conduct.”

As a taxpayer, a voter and a consumer of medical care, I believe that the people who choose our health and medical choices should only have the same choices and costs that their constituents have.

They are trying to destroy our vibrant workforce, our healthcare, and our environment, and our cultural heritage with their greed.

Because the love and protection of our country should be above all else!! Nunes has proven himself unworthy of the position he holds!!
