Keeping San Pedro whole in one Assembly District will ensure our small community port community has fair representation.

Millions of Americans will be thrown back into loan repayment even though we face the persistent impact of the pandemic, growing inflation, and so much more. Before the pandemic struck, people struggled to navigate the broken student loan system wreaking havoc on the financial lives of families across the country. Restarting payments will be a financial disaster, but the President has the power to stop it. Continuing the pause on federal student loan payments is an important investment in Americans' financial lives. It gives people the financial freedom to pay rent or purchase homes, afford healthcare or medicine, start small businesses, and support their families. Without the burden of student debt, Americans weathered the pandemic, and many are thriving. We have added our name to this petition to send President Biden a simple message: DO NOT resume student loan payments.

Manatees play a vital role in the ecosystems of Louisana. They help prevent the overgrowing of seagrass which could negatively affect the state's fishing industry. They help by eating the water hyacinth and other invasive plant species hurting the lives and chances of survival of our native species. They are also important as they are living fertilizers for important plant species vital to the Louisiana food chain.

Help us protect birds in Boca Chica: Please demand a full-scale, in-depth analysis of SpaceX’s environmental impacts. The SpaceX facility in Boca Chica is surrounded by federal and state public lands used by hundreds of thousands of birds, including the federally Threatened Piping Plover and Red Knot, as well as the Endangered Northern Aplomado Falcon. These lands also support several species of sea turtles and mammals listed under the Endangered Species Act. Despite the area's ecological importance, SpaceX has conducted and expanded operations with little oversight by federal authorities. Construction at the facility, launch activities, fires, and rocket debris are already impacting the wildlife of the Boca Chica region. Rather than minimizing operations to protect this fragile area, SpaceX has increased its scope well beyond what was specified in the Federal Aviation Administration’s 2014 Environmental Impact Assessment. This includes testing a new rocket — a massive 400-foot-tall ship — that is much larger than originally authorized. It also includes development of a natural gas facility to extract and deliver fuel to the site. Over 14,000 acres of federal and state public lands have already been affected by the SpaceX facility — and much more is at risk if we don’t raise our voices now.

There is an IMMEDIATE need to obtain a Bay Bottom Lease for the Veterans Fish Camp Card Sound Road, in the Florida Keys. The below states an important factors to reduce suicides and the Bay Bottom Lease would help with these: According to the World Health Organization, having a safe, supportive environment plays a large role in suicide prevention. When people feel secure in their surroundings, they experience less anxiety and depression, improve their physical health, have fewer instances of substance abuse and experience an overall improved quality of life and life expectancy. According to the Mayo Clinic, “most often, suicidal thoughts are the result of feeling like you can’t cope when you’re faced with what seems to be an overwhelming life situation.” Immediate Action is needed

The people who live in the neighborhoods surrounding this store do not have many options for groceries or other necessities provided by this store. It previously was a locally owned Sunshine at least since 1995 serving this neighborhood. Having a community centered grocery is something valued in Sioux Falls as we see with stores like Sunshine, Franklin, and Andy's as well as Hyvee and other larger grocery chains. From a Sioux Falls resident Tray: "Creating food deserts is a part of systemic racism. The group of folks who were let go from Kmart apply to this Hy-Vee only to be moved farther from their homes. I grew up eating here when I was younger and it was Sunshine and now I shop here as an adult. This is disheartening." The people that surround this store will have less options that are accessible for healthy food. We as a community need to know how their needs will be met. Update 12/13/21 from community members: We feel this will be a LASTING impression on ALL the residents of Sioux Falls as to how a well known business as Hyvee responds to the pleas of the disadvantaged and handicapped in the community. Hyvee is removing access & affordability from those who truly need it. Almost 3 miles to travel to the nearest 26th Hyvee grocery will affect many who do not have transportation. Adding the rising cost of groceries and gas prices. Closing the store would place an extra burden on them. THE STORE IS PROFITABLE: Mayor TenHaken said:"Hy-Vee confirmed themselves they were running a profitable store; but it just doesn't fit into their portfolio services anymore. THOSE IMPACTED: THIS store important to the FIREFIGHTERS who need to cook for the first responders at their stations, as well as AIR NATIONAL GUARD troops who shop there. Hy-Vee closing creates a food desert and strains area NON PROFITS. MANY in the area WALK or bicycle, many have small CHILDREN, many are single mothers, elderly or disabled. APARTMENT OWNERS AND TENANTS An important must-have when apartment hunting often involves the presence of a grocery store within a few blocks. OWNERS AND TENANTS of the numerous apartment complexes which Kiwanis Hyvee serves would also feel the impact of this store closure. Those with no access to a vehichle, who walk to the store who WILL have NO way they can think of now to travel 3 miles to the closest grocery store if the Kiwanis store closes. Sioux Falls has 6 recognized food deserts by the U.S. Dept of Agriculture, where a grocery store is more than a mile away in a predominantly low-income neighborhood. Hy-Vee's store close will likely add another food desert in the nw-central neighborhoods based on high concentrations of low income rental properties. MICHELLE ERPENBACH Exec dir of Thrive, said: "..that neighborhood needs a reasonable grocery store and now they don't have it. It's ignoring them," "We're watching a gap open up in front of our eyes. What do we do about that as a community? Are we going to let that gap open and let people fall in? "There's absolutely going to be food inequity with this closure," Mayor Paul TenHaken said. "With this Hy-Vee closure, it leaves a very large gap.- question THERE SEEMS TO BE A CONFLICTING REASON FOR CLOSING THIS STORE , 2 PEOPLE QUOTED IN NEWS ARTICLES SAY 2 OPPOSING REASONS . I WONDER WHICH IS CORRECT: https://www.argusleader.com/story/news/2021/12/08/food-deserts-could-increase-in-sioux-falls-after-hyvee-closure-feeding-south-dakota/8836062002/ 1."We know there is demand, and Hy-Vee confirmed themselves they were running a profitable store; but it just doesn't fit into their portfolio services anymore. That need will get filled in due time," TenHaken said. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/sioux-falls-hy-vee-to-close-will-be-repurposed-as-non-retail-site/ar-AARm36k 2. Tina Potthoff, senior vice president of communications for Hy-Vee. Unfortunately, this location did not consistently meet our financial expectations.” The change is due to increased growth and demand for pharmacy and baking service in Sioux Falls, Potthoff added."We need the additional space to keep up with demand," Potthoff said in an emailed statement. "We want sales to reflect the quality of value we’re bringing to the store and the customer service we’re providing. Unfortunately, this location did not consistently meet our financial expectations.” Potthoff did acknowledge that closing the Kiwanis location would widen food deserts in the northwestern part of Sioux Falls. She said that Aisles Online accepts EBT payments and said that Hy-Vee will "look at ways to further address" the issue. ...Sounds kind of vague...I wonder what ways they are looking at and at what time on the future???

If primary basic compensation in whatever form alone for artists/sources' work or partaking is a concern so should the social/professional respect to protect the dynamic and knowledge of subjects' contribution to the industry in-turn for their livelihood/well-being to inspire their public which also means public witness/advocacy to this concern means (as) much stimulating a more aware sphere within any arena related to art/business which falls on the quality of it's culture's support to support (it) by initially maintaining how creators stand for themselves by their own right. MIND | CHAOS CULT's project fund proceeds conjoins same value with the GrammyFund to mandate the fair automatic acknowledgement of artists'/other officials' decision-making outside what excludes them from their own creative/intellectual property value (known to them) to further expansive interest.

Fair and caring treatment of human beings and the passion for Anime AnimeNYC only cared about selling tickets, not their attendees and the Anime community.

Other people should join me in my "campaign for change" because this pollution and plastic problem effects all of us. If humans don't change their habits, then soon the earth will became a landfill. The cause is also extremely important because earth is our only home, and there's not a second one to go to if this one dies. But if there were, then humans would probably destroy that one too.

The way of life we love is about change SIGNIFICANTLY for the communities of Hoback Ranches/Hoback Basin by doubling the population of Bondurant! The resort owner-funded impact study was insufficient and does not address the many negative impacts this Luxury resort will bear on this small community and pristine fragile ecosystem and wildlife. Migratory patterns in direct conflict with this proposed rezoning effort were unaddressed. This public knowledge available and unused in said study can be found easily at http://www.uwyo.edu/haub . The countless dollars and hours spent by our state to produce this public information was not used in this impact statement. Review available information, talk to the Game and Fish, actually look at migratory patterns https://www.usgs.gov/news/new-maps-document-big-game-migrations-across-western-united-states that were unaddressed in the produced and submitted report. Please contact the Sublette County Commissioners and voice why this proposed rezoning from ag to commercial should be denied by the Sublette County Commissioners. Upcoming Commission agenda & information at www.sublettewyo.com. Our small community does not need to provide a change from ag to golf course in Bondurant. Commissioner's review is this week so voice your opinion, sign petition and deny the dramatic and negative change to our way of life.

We currently have quite a number of people coming to Boulder County to shoot, whether we like it or not because it's legal. As it stands now these recreational sport shooters can legally shoot just about anywhere they want on our National Forest System lands, which are often extremely close to well used trails as well as homes boarding these public lands. The idea in this petition is to offer an alternative for those people interested in recreational sport shooting at just one location within the County that not only enforces safe use, but will prevent bullets from crossing paths with the thousands of other Boulder County residents enjoying the outdoors. In other words, sport shooting is going to happen here whether we like it or not, but we can do a better job of managing it. There are also 3 other Front Range Counties (Larimer, Gilpin, & Clear Creek) working with the US Forest Service, and Colorado Parks and Wildlife to create recreational sport shooting ranges within their counties as part of the Sports Shooting Partnership: https://www.sportshootingpartners.org/resources/ Until these ranges are opened people will continue to use National Forest System Land to practice shooting with very little oversight, or safety measures in place. As our neighboring Counties open their public shooting ranges the National Forest Lands within their County boundaries will be permanently closed to recreational sport shooting, whether or not Boulder County gets their shooting range constructed within the same timeframe. Opening this public shooting range in Boulder County, adjacent to the private one that already exists here, is a step forward toward more oversight and safety. Links to maps showing the USFS sport shooting closures once the Boulder Rifle Club expansion is complete: Here is the overall map: https://www.fs.usda.gov/nfs/11558/www/nepa/101606_FSPLT3_4656172.pdf Here is an interactive map: https://usfs.maps.arcgis.com/apps/MapTools/index.html?appid=686de900600743db9e54b167fa7bf40f We have the opportunity in Boulder County to be a trailblazer for the rest of the country in closing recreational sport shooting on public land while offering a safe alternative. After years of discussions and collaboration the USFS passed a Forest Plan Amendment to close just under 80,000 acres of federal land in Boulder County to recreational sport shooting, on the condition that the County opened a new public shooting range to safely accommodate sport shooting. Last year Boulder County finally approved an expansion to the BRC after years of searching for a location. All the hard work has been done. The only thing left now is to fund the project Boulder County has already approved. The County now has the means to do it. It's time to prioritize the lives and safety of Boulder County residents by fully funding the expansion of the Boulder Rifle Club.
