AP Biology is required to be a three semester course. Therefore, AP Biology is broken into two courses: AP Biology and AP Bio Lab. Since both of these courses have AP level work and prepare students for the AP exam, they should both have AP GPA credits. It is wrong for an AP class such as AP Bio Lab to not have the same AP level credits as AP Bio. Teachers have tried to fix this, but nothing has changed . The only way to fix this is for the students to demand AP credits.

This petition is to take the recently passed I-594 out of the books and amend it.

Voice your support for eliminating the Senior Project effective with the graduation class of 2015. The State Legislature and State School Board administration have dropped this requirement. The Highline School District Superintendent recommended this project be dropped effective with the 2015 graduating class and the written recommendation was never put before the school board for a vote as scheduled on 11/5. It mysteriously disappeared and there is no leadership or clear communication on this matter. If you believe our seniors have enough work to do to meet district graduation requirements, hold up their GPA's, and do college applications and interviews, support this petition and email [email protected].

The Affordable Care Act has given new hope to millions of people who previously had no hope of getting health insurance or the medical care they desperately needed. The Affordable Care Act has helped slow the rising cost of medical care. The Affordable Care Act is protecting millions of Americans from being bankrupted by sky high medical bills. The Affordable Care Act would be protecting millions more if some states weren't politically blockading the Medicaid Expansion while their citizens die for lack of care. The Affordable Care Act IS WORKING. As the new majority in both the Senate and House of Representatives lay their plans to repeal the Affordable Care Act, we insist they call it by its true name, that the media call it by its true name, so that everyone knows repealing the Affordable Care Act will simply make medical care UNAFFORDABLE once again.

We have nearly all seen videos of explosive train wrecks during transportation of this highly volatile crude oil. We have nearly all seen the videos of tap water from private water wells catching on fire. The technology needed to extract the oil and gas is proven, but the techniques are causing massive contamination and dangerous transportation.

KPHS is growing rapidly and we have outgrown our current setting. We have purchased land for our new school for the upcoming 2015-16 and are petitioning the county for approval for special use (Private School).

THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES SHOULD NOT BE THE ONLY INDUSTRIAL COUNTRY THAT DOES NOT TAKE CARE OF THEIR CITIZENS, AND MAKE IT NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO GET FAIR AND AFFORDABLE HEALTH INSURANCE!

When Mitch McConnell is sworn in as majority leader in January, he’ll be surrounded by at least six new anti-choice senators. Here’s the thing: Anti-choice candidates didn’t win by running on their beliefs – they won by running on ours. Voters didn’t send these Republican freshmen to Washington to roll back our reproductive freedom. More than 50 percent of voters in Iowa and Colorado who support abortion rights backed Gardner and Ernst. Now that we’ve lost the Senate, our top priority is to force the freshmen Republicans to keep the promises they made to the voters who put them in office to focus on expanding job opportunities and economic security for everyone.

As an American, I am offended by the war on the poor being waged by this municipality. Only by threatening its lifeblood (tourism)will they halt and reverse this barbarous policy.

There’s no two ways about it—we lost. Republicans are going to have a clear majority in the Senate next year and Mitch McConnell has already made clear that he’s going to grind President Obama’s judicial and executive nominees to a halt. But here’s the thing: Democrats still have the majority right now and they can confirm a slew of Obama’s nominees in a lame duck session. Confirming the president’s judicial nominees could be Harry Reid and Senate Democrats’ lasting legacy—and it could shape jurisprudence for decades to come. Sign the petition to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid: Confirm all of President Obama’s judicial nominees right now, before it’s too late.

Reduce Corruption -> Restore Democracy. Congress has been corrupted by big money. Our elected officials represent special interests instead of the American people. From the tax code to education, climate change to the national debt — they'll never fix anything that matters to the American people until we end the legalized corruption and make them represent us. The American Anti-Corruption Act: Prevents members of Congress from raising money from the interest they regulate; Puts tough limits on unregulated Super PACs so they have to play by the rules; Mandates full transparency so we know who works for who; And gives voters a $100 Tax Rebate that they can contribute to the candidate and party of their choice.
