Now is the time to show the world that laws that protect endangered species should be upheld and followed in Zimbabwe and here in the United States. We are all awaiting...the people coming from all walks of life, all the animal welfare and rights advocates that you execute your power to extradite him here from our country and bring him to justice. We know that there is a process but it is time for someone who broke your law be held accountable. We have to bring this outlaw to justice!

Our State Assembly will be voting on the Climate Package of bills in just a few weeks. Matt Dababneh hasn't announced his position on this crucial legislation. He needs to know that we will be talking about this for a long time in terms of public health, pension assets, California's clean energy economy, and the moral imperative to protect our children.

Many countries and even some American cities are banning the use of glyphosate-based chemicals used in landscaping, due to its link to an assortment of health concerns. Boulder City, NV, has the reputation of being "clean and green". As a longtime resident, parent, and teacher, I would urge the city to pursue alternative forms of pest and weed control.

Netflix's new unlimited parental leave policy is a bold proposal for working families -- but the online streaming giant is still earning a one-star rating from us. Why is that? Because Netflix won’t extend these benefits to workers in their lower-wage DVD division. That means Netflix is essentially creating two classes of employees — high-wage workers who can afford to take care of their families, and low-wage workers who aren’t worthy of these crucial benefits. I don’t know about you, but I think that’s just plain wrong.

Good business people want to provide safe and useful marijuana to people who want it and need it, but they are afraid of being arrested. The State could acquire tax revenue instead of wasting tax money on enforcing laws that turn regular citizens into criminals. This would allow proper growing, manufacturing and sale of cannabis for medical and recreational use.

American workers deserve to make a living wage. The President and Democratic leaders in the House and Senate have proposed raising the minimum wage to $10.10, $12 or $15 an hour, but the minimum wage should be $15 an hour because: (1) $10.10 an hour isn't enough to lift full-time workers and their families out of poverty; (2) Unlike 45 years ago, today's typical low-wage worker is not a teenager; he or she provides all or a large percent of family income; (3) The minimum wage would be at least $15 an hour if the minimum wage we had back in 1968 were adjusted for inflation and for the productivity gains we achieved since then; (4) Because some employers now pay wages that don't lift their employees out of poverty, the rest of us pay for their Medicaid, food stamps, housing, and other assistance -- in effect, subsidizing these low-wage employers; (5) Some jobs may be lost by raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour, but many more people will be lifted out of poverty; (6) The economy will also benefit as low-wage workers have more money to spend, thereby creating more jobs; and (7) At a time in our nation's history when 95 percent of all economic gains are going to the top 1 percent, raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour is the sensible, decent thing to do.

As one of the leaders for the homeless society I hear so many stories of dysfunction in the families since their childhood that we need to rear our children with respect to honoring GOD for the future.

I have not been personally affected by this issue, but it would be a wonderful contribution to a much needed service in the community. The nearest Trauma Center is now far enough away that people are suffering and or dying before they can get proper care.

The community's support is needed to achieve our purpose to rebuild our church and show to the Central Diocese of the PNCC that we do exist as a parish.

We need clean energy and we need a safer Dixie Highway. The Dixie Highway Corridor Solar Project will give us both of these.

We are parents and treating professionals of children with autism who want our children and clients to have access to ALL proven methods of therapy prescribed by their doctors. There is a lobby to remove the options of other approaches (e.g., relationship-based) from insurance plans, thereby grossly limiting parents’ choice to only one treatment approach (behaviorism). Parents should have the ability to choose the treatment they feel gives their child the best chance for success.
