The net effect of daylight savings time is negative. It doesn't save time. It doesn't save much energy. It causes deaths from schedule and sleep disruption. It costs millions for time and schedule changes twice annually. When will we admit this is the one idea Ben Franklin had that was terrible?

It would help the economy, help with communication, online learning, etc...

I work with immigrants and their families as an ESL teacher and know that immigrants just want a better life for your children. We need compassion for them.

Trump is in the White House and Republicans control the House of Representatives because of an outdated law set in 1911. This petition would eliminate that law and provide fair representation for all. Democrats would own the White House and The House of Representatives if we had "1 vote per 500,000"

Governor Hogan is considering funding charter schools rather than completely funding Maryland's public schools. Reduced funding will cut special programs from our schools. My grandson, a ninth grader, will lose many of the programs he now has in a public school.

The extra costs to support Pres Trump going to Florida every weekend are frivolous and wasteful, especially in light of so many facing cuts in critical services such as healthcare. It's fiscally irresponsible.

I believe that we should make it easier to register to vote in Alabama. The more citizens engaged in the democratic process the stronger our democracy will be. Easing the process of registering to vote is not a conservative issue or a liberal issue it is something that only strengthens our democracy.

NC has always been a leader in the Southeast as a moderate, business-friendly and people-friendly place. We are the capital of March Madness with some of the best sports teams in the Nation. I want NC to return to the place where people want to come work, live and play here.

As Americans we have the right to ask our elected officials to do the job for which they were elected. It is their responsibility to ensure the United States is held in utmost esteem and that all our elected officials abides by the constitution. This is not a Democrat or a Republican issue. This should be a united issue.

Former Senator Sessions lied to the Senate during his confirmation hearing. If he allowed to remain in office as the US Attorney General, it tells other people that lying under oath is acceptable behavior. This must not be allowed.

The Washington Post just revealed that U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions lied under oath at his confirmation hearing about his contacts with Russian officials during the presidential campaign, when he was a foreign policy advisor to Trump. He has committed perjury and must resign.

I invite all those that are living with unlicensed operators and illegal dumping of toxic waste in your backyard to sign this petition and name your site in the petition. Let the Attorney General know each and every site that is harboring unlicensed operators. We will make this official. We will deliver this personally to the Attorney General with your site clearly cited for the record. I am hoping that this will be a call to action for our Chief Law Enforcement Officer. We have a right to be recognized and our concerns acknowledged. We have a right to petition our government for redress of grievances. This is a time sensitive grievance we need resolved now. On Feb 15, 2017 we the people of California were looking for relief from the constant fear and uncertainty of contamination of our water by uncertified Toxic Waste Injection operators. Our hope of relief was shattered when The State Department of Conservation Division of Gas, Oil and Geothermal Resources failed to honor their deadline to shut down all oil drilling wells and sites that had not been properly vetted by DOGGR. This is an forgivable breach of trust. DOGGR defaulted on their deadline date and unvetted wells remain fully operational. The State of California was delegated primary responsibility for implementing the Class II oil and gas underground injection control (UIC) program of the federal Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) in 1983. DOGGR has admitted the program has never been fully operational or functional citing unresolved and ongoing staffing and funding issues that prevented them from implementing, monitoring and enforcing a fail safe, secure program. As a part of its oversight role, EPA audited the California Department of Conservation, Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources’ (DOGGR) Class II UIC primacy program in 2011 and identified substantial implementation deficiencies. DOGGR, together with The State Water Resources Board and the EPA agreed to set Feb. 15, 2017 as the deadline for completion of the implementation of the UIC program with the condition that all non-compliant, undocumented operations would be shut down for our own safety and well being. That deadline has come and gone and nothing has changed. All the wells are still in operation. This is a breach of trust by the agencies entrusted with the safety of our water. It is beyond reason to expect us to have any faith or confidence in this process. It has been 33 years since DOGGR was given the responsibility of implementing a program to protect and safeguard our underground water resources from an accident prone industry with a history of mechanical malfunctions and human error that uses a patented toxic waste disposal process that has been proven to compromise the geological integrity of the subterranean soil. Under these conditions accidents, spills, explosions and contamination of our water resources is inevitable. The Feb 15, deadline was going to put an end to the uncertainty, constant stress and anxiety of not knowing if our water is safe. DOGGR still has problems as does the EPA. Under this new administration the EPA is facing the threat of being dismantled. This situation is unbearable and only compounds our fear and anxiety over conditions that threaten water resources critical to our well being. It does not seem at all fair nor does it instill any confidence in our regulatory process or law enforcement that we must bear the burden of a flawed system that risks irreversible and irreparable damage to a limited natural resource and a public good fundamental for life and health. Water. For over 15 years we have been living with the unauthorized and unlicensed dumping of toxic waste into the unincorporated areas of San Luis Obispo County. This odious omnipresence plagues many communities throughout California as the undersigned will attest to citing their areas of dire concern. This uncertainty must end. The unvetted sites MUST be shut down. The Attorney General has independent authority, acting directly in the name of the People, "to take action to protect the natural resources of the State of California from pollution, impairment, or destruction." Therefore, WE, the undersigned, do hereby implore and beseech State Attorney General Xavier Becerra to provide the leadership we have come to rely on to protect and safeguard Californians human and natural resources for this and future generations and enforce as stipulated the Feb. 15, 2017 shut down of all unpermitted, non compliant Underground Injection Control sites per the Safe Drinking Water Act. Thank you.
