My 24 yr old son Jeremy Hopper II was recently convicted of Manslaughter 1, Assault 2 and Assault 4 stemming from a motor vehicle accident on May 4, 2016. He is the first person that we know of in the state of Oregon history to be convicted of such crimes when there were no drugs or alcohol in his system. They have blamed the accident on "speed racing" however, there are many holes in the case the state presented. Due to a biased court, judge, prosecutor and jury, he did not receive a fair trial and was found guilty. Jeremy has been an upstanding citizen. He was the manager of a local retail store until trial, had only one speeding ticket when he was 16 yrs old and had never been in trouble with the law. Even though we do not believe street racing is something Jeremy would do, as he never has done it and does not have the desire to race, he would have taken a plea and pled guilty to avoid the chance of measure 11. Unfortunately the DA refused to offer Jeremy a plea that did not contain a measure 11 crime. They did however offer the other defendent a plea of no measure 11, and 60-90 months in jail which is even a little excessive considering the other pleas offered in similar cases in the same county. The other defendent is also known for street racing, has been racing all his life, and in fact gotten a ticket the week prior for going 122. Jeremy was a target from the very moment this accident happened and they refused to treat him equal during any portion from the investigation forward. They had just given a plea deal in the same county in just Oct to a kid that was high, speeding, ran a stop sign and killed two people only 5 years, again no measure 11. We need to reform Measure 11 so good kids like Jeremy are not railroaded by DA's that are out with a vendetta against someone. Take this horrible power out of their hands!!!

The Friends of Boothe Park is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization formed in 1984 to preserve and restore Boothe Memorial Park & Museum. Since its founding, it has contributed nearly $1 Million toward the restoration of the Museum Buildings. In addition, the Friends of Boothe Park has contributed countless volunteer hours in managing the Museum programs, providing tours, running educational programs for local school children, presenting historical reenactments, hosting an annual Opening Day event, and much more. At the present time, we are collaborating with the Town of Stratford and State of Connecticut to restore the East Barn, which will be re-purposed into a Visitors & Educational Center. The cost of this project will exceed $200,000. The proposed Dog Park would be placed right in the middle of the scenic overlook planned for this new Visitors & Educational Center.

The first congressional recess is our first opportunity to speak directly with our members of Congress since Trump took office. I want the chance to share, in person, my objection to this administration's attack on our health care, our communities, and our democracy.

To educate and motivate Californians to stand against the dangerous federal administration.

It's important that our representatives listen to constituents and allow them opportunities to ask questions and take part in discussions. Senator Shelley Moore Capito is not planning a Town Hall Meeting to address concerns of WV citizens. Sign this petition if you think it's time she does. Our voices and concerns matter! She works for us!

Fixing our neighborhood streets. The Garden Villas Neighborhood in Houston, TX. (Hobby Airport Area) needs some serious work. The city only "patches" the issues instead of fixing the core problem. Help us restore our neighborhood streets!

Hundreds of constituents have sought to meet with Lee Zeldin with no success, I am one of them.

Senator Paul has not listened to the pleas of his constituents. We want to demand him to hold a town hall so he can explain to us in person why he is ignoring the will of Kentuckians.

The proposed bill will undermine academic research working on social and racial justice topics. Not only would the creation of new Federal geospatial databases on racial disparities be prohibited, so too would access to existing geospatial information of this sort and the use of Federal funds from agencies such as the National Science Foundation to study such data. As written, this represents a direct attack on the ability of geographers and others to produce actionable and policy-relevant research on racial disparities in this country.

With so many important issues facing our country and our community, it's critically important that our representative in Congress understand our concerns. Congress will be in recess from February 18th to February 26th, but so far, Rep. Faso hasn't scheduled a public town hall meeting. Join us to demand that Rep. Faso hold an open and accessible town hall meeting so that he can understand voters' positions on important issues and represent us in Congress.

It is time for the Kentuckians to have a voice within the Senate. Both Mitch McConnell and Rand Paul need to be doing things that actually align with the views of Kentucky. Senator Paul should have a town hall meeting with his constituents so he can vote and produce bills that actually align with our views.
