My name is SSG. Mike Bryant (retired). I am a veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom and have been medically retired because of a long list of health problems including post-traumatic stress disorder. Most of the medications that are given out for PTSD have some very rough side effects, including suicidal tendencies. I can tell you from experience that marijuana helps with PTSD, but I can not use it for fear of prosecution because it is illegal in Kentucky. Marijuana has been clinically proven to help PTSD but for some reason most law makers choose to ignore this fact. Will you help those who have sacrificed so much in the name of freedom by asking Kentucky to legalize medicinal marijuana?<

I run a support group for survivors of sociopaths and the devastation that the court system causes these victims is an outrage. there are hundreds of thousands of victims out there who have been abused by sociopaths and who also have children with them. the damage they do to these women and children is despicable and these women ( men) have no voice in court you cant even get a judge to look at this epidemic. the laws and our court system must change.

The students of Clairfield Elementary currently DO NOT HAVE access to the same information and are limited in their opportunities for engagement as a result of not having fiber optic access to internet services. Why should they be left out? Why do they not have access? The students deserve to have better. They should have the same opportunities for learning that other students currently have in the state of Tennessee .

My husband is incarcerated at the Michael Unit in Tennessee Colony Texas Region ll. Employees are representatives of the TDCJ and are expected to adhere to the highest standards of conduct while on-duty or off-duty, including adherence to the rules of conduct described in the Listing of Employee General Rules of Conduct and Disciplinary Violations. The Warden's and officers are treating family members and friends of offenders inappropriately and nothing is being done. This needs to stop.

Kids with cancer are treated with 40 year old drugs. They do not get the most promising drugs to save their lives.

*A petition to open "some" roads in Stark, NH* "We respectfully ask you to consider opening all of the town roads north of Rt. 110 including Plain Rd., Paris Rd., Dewey Hill Rd, Bell Hill Rd, Sullivan Rd., Pike Pond Rd., Christine Rd, Percy Rd., Northside Rd., Lee Hill Rd., Nash Stream Rd., Emerson Rd., Cloutier Drive, Groveton Drive, Mollybrook Drive, Moose Pond Drive and High Acres Drive." This would be modeled after the Winter OHRV Rule in effect in Stark for some years without problem.*

From the NBC News article: "Developers Confluence Partners want to provide the more than 5 million annual visitors to the Grand Canyon National Park with a new 420-acre attraction. Their plans for the canyon's rim include a multimedia complex with an IMAX theater, retail shops, hotels, an RV park and a gondola tram that would take visitors 1.6 miles to the canyon floor in ten minutes. Confluence Partners has also drawn up plans for a "Riverwalk" on the canyon floor that would include elevated connected walkways, a food pavilion, a tramway station, a terraced seating area and a wastewater package plant." Besides being a sacred place for many indian tribes, this is a pristine natural area that should remain in it's natural state. Please sign to tell the developer Confluence Partners to abandon their plan. http://www.nbcnews.com/nightly-news/grand-canyon-development-plan-sparks-dispute-among-navajo-n302521 http://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/04/us/where-2-rivers-meet-visions-for-grand-canyon-clash.html?_r=1 http://savetheconfluence.com/

With enough pressure on Liz Warren to run for President as you at MoveOn.Org has started I strongly believe she will participate in the primary process. Although she has stated over and over that she will not run, this past weekend she has indicated that she will be watching what Hillary has to say. The democratic party cannot afford to have voters stay home in 2016 and if we show the force we are, then this coming elections will not be bought and sold by Corporate America as it is threatening to be. Therefore, I will make a solemn pledge to not vote in 2016 if Ms. Warren does not enter into the Primary process. I am seeking the help of anyone who has expertise in setting up a website or blog to open up discussions on the topic.

i was married to a man i loved with all my heart, trusted completely--but he stopped loving me. we have an autistic son and i suffer from mental and physical disabilities. we are fighting for a chance to make a new life for ourselves. but without representation, without any protection, we find that we are one month away from separation of mother and child due to the threat of homelessness.

We must protect all people in North Dakota and have people recognize that we are all human no matter who we love.

We in Albion are not only sad about the loss of our village symbol, the perpetual flashing light was like a reassuring old friend as it controlled our traffic safety at our only rotary intersection.

Iowa children are the future of our workforce, and will be the drivers of Iowa’s economy for years to come. A commitment to education should be an easy way to attract and retain families in our great state. Iowa ranks 35th in the nation in per pupil funding and is already more than $1,600 below the national average in annual per-pupil investment. I don't want to see cuts to world languages, social studies, the arts, or after-school activities because of underfunding our schools. Instead, I want to see our students able to compete for 21st century jobs.
