Announcing your position against the Mayor's ban of horse drawn carriages leaves one less vote towards a progressive, safer, more humane NYC. Stand with the majority of your fellow New Yorkers and reverse your stance on not supporting the ban, especially when there are better solutions to keep jobs surrounding NYC's tourism industry. You have a chance to stand with the right side of the city that denounces the abuse of animals and advocates for real public safety.

We support keeping the Lexington, KY, mail processing plant open and maintaining the strongest public post office in Kentucky.

My son Connor had 3 different substitute teachers within 6 days, including his teacher, that makes 4 new faces in 6 days. In the past Central York allowed their teachers to have a top 5 list of substitutes that knew their classrooms. Having the top 5 allows consistency in the classroom and is beneficial to any child's learning experience. It is a disservice to our students to have a different teacher in there on a daily basis when a teacher is out.

In Alaska we believe in the rights of the individual. Corporations are not individuals and should not be allowed to buy elections. We need to overturn Citizens United so individual citizens determine the outcome of elections.

TO GET OUR DUES BACK DOWN.

I have been with sprint over 5 years and the service gets worse yearly. I'm paying over $130 a month for service that doesn't work. I constantly experience dropped calls and no data connection which means my emails and text messages will not come through. The only time service half-way work is if you're connected to Wi-Fi which doesn't help all the time either. Sprint should release all customers from their contracts free of charge if there is no coverage in their area, especially if it shows that on their website when you type in your address. It should not be legal to sell phones that don't work in certain areas.

The proposed route through Nelson County traverses much of our most scenic, rugged, and undeveloped terrain. Specifically, the construction of the pipeline through the watershed of the Rockfish River would disturb and damage surface water resources at or near every stream crossing. The existence of a gas pipeline of the magnitude proposed would have a harmful effect on tourism, a critical component of the economy of Nelson County. The continued presence would impose a significant burden on local government resources including but not limited to our largely volunteer fire and rescue services. Real estate along or near the proposed route would be adversely impacted, harming property owners directly in the path of the pipeline, as well as neighboring properties. Nelson County would not derive any perceptible benefit from the project sufficient to compensate for the harm caused to property owners, tourism, natural resources, and the ongoing disruption of life in the county for a period of years. Please help to resolve this!

Republican Mike Coffman is running for reelection in one of the closest races in the country. With the race so close, it's unbelievable how Rep. Coffman is trying to rewrite history and rebrand himself as an immigration reform champion so he can appeal to the growing Latino voters in his district. Luckily, HBO's Bill Maher has launched a "Flip A District" campaign calling out the worst member of Congress, and he's donating a huge amount of money to help unseat the "winner" in November. If he picks Rep. Coffman, it'll send a strong message to national Republicans that hypocrisy on immigration reform won’t be tolerated. Please sign this petition. We've only have a few days and we want to deliver as many signatures as possible to convince Bill Maher he should pick Mike Coffman for his flip a district campaign.

As a mother of an Autistic child who has ended in the hospital more than once, I am outraged that in some occasions the police has even refused to write a report and when they do, no charges are ever filed. The new incident of the child assaulted by pouring bio-hazard waste on him has been treated as a simple prank. Another teen was beat to a pulp with no consequences to his attackers. No more!!

There is a direct connection between gun violence and domestic violence: When a domestic abuser has a gun, a victim is 12 times more likely to die than when he doesn’t. One in four American women experiences physical violence from an intimate partner, and every month 46 women are killed by an intimate partner with a gun. We need to tell Congress that too many women are dying. Over twenty years ago Congress passed the landmark Violence Against Women Act (VAWA). We’ve made progress, but we need Congress to step up and plug the loopholes to protect all women now. Congress already expanded VAWA to make it a crime for those convicted of a domestic violence misdemeanor to buy or possess a gun. Now we need to expand protection to include women in dating relationships, and to prevent stalkers from owning guns. States United to Prevent Gun Violence and the Campaign to Keep Guns Off Campus are partnering to deliver the message to Congress: "Step up and protect all women NOW by preventing stalkers and violent dating partners from buying and possessing guns".

I am terrified that Congress is ignoring their responsibility to decide this urgent issue for our safety. And it apalls me that they don't want a vote because of the upcoming election. They must do their job!

Overwhelmingly, Republicans and Democrats agree at the rate of around 75% that Citizens United is bad law and is allowing elections to be bought to deliver agendas that are not in the best interests of the American Citizens. The ultra rich industrialists have clean air, water and land protections crushed by legislators whose vote they have bought. And they bought these votes with anonymous donations. WE CANNOT STAND BY AND ALLOW CITIZENS UNITED TO DESTROY OUR ENVIRONMENT, OUR ECONOMY AND THE FUTURE OF OUR CHILDREN TO PAD THEIR ALREADY BULGING COFFERS. VOTES ARE ONGOING THIS WEEK. TOMORROW, SEPTEMBER 10, CONTACT YOUR CONGRESSMEN AND LET THEM KNOW THAT YOU EXPECT THEM TO VOTE TO OVERTURN CITIZENS UNITED. USE THE POWER OF YOUR VOICE AND YOUR VOTE TO STAND UP FOR OPEN, TRANSPARENT ELECTIONS WHERE EVERY VOTE IS OF EQUAL IMPORTANCE.
