Witt, Newkirk, and Williams have wasted millions of taxpayer dollars, harassed and insulted teachers, driven away experienced and effective senior staff, impugned students, ignored concerns of parents, broken Sunshine laws meant to ensure transparency and accountability, violated school board bylaws, betrayed the trust of citizens who voted for mill and bond in 2012, and publicly embarrassed our school district and its students by claiming our district is failing in written editorials, on television and on radio. We demand that all three of you resign before you do more damage to our community. We stand united in our support of teachers and students and the excellent quality of public education in Jefferson County.

I am the Co-Founder and President of the Association of American Indian Farmers. I have been contacted by prevailing claimants, denied claimants and potential claimants to provide advocacy and outreach to Native American Farmers because they have been done a great disservice by the US Department of Agriculture and Keepeagle Class Counsel. Too many (thousands) of Native American Farmers have been left behind and left out of the Keepseagle Settlement process. It took an Act of Congress for Black Farmers who were denied an opportunity to participate in the Black Farmers case hence there was a Black Farmers Late Filers (2nd round) claims process which compensated over 17,000 additional Black Farmers . Unlike the Black Farmers case, Keepseagle has $380 million leftover so funds remain available and there should be a Keepseagle II not requiring an Act of Congress or additional funding. Native American Farmers are still losing land/farms and struggling to be competitive. Please help us tell Keepeagle Class Counsel Joe Sellers and U.S. District Judge Emmet G. Sullivan - Keepseagle for Farmers NOT Nonprofits!

Royal Dutch Shell Oil is preparing to once again attempt to drill for oil in the Arctic. Shell has shown, year after year, that they are not "Arctic ready" and can not be trusted to operate responsibly in these icy, desolate seas. The last time they tried--in 2012--they had to suspend operations after two of their drilling ships suffered serious accidents, one of them washing ashore. Additionally, the U.S. Coast Guard found numerous pollution control equipment violations on the ships after inspecting them. It was also found that they did not have adequate spill prevention and cleanup equipment available for potential spills. Shell isn't ready for the Arctic and the Arctic will never be ready for Shell.

A public hearing has been scheduled before the Division of Aquatic Resources on October 3, 2014, regarding the approval of rules for the Hā'ena Community Based Subsistence Fishing Area. The Hā'ena Rules propose to prohibit the taking of aquatic life for commercial purposes and to prohibit commercial activities disruptive to the natural environment. A copy of the proposed rules can be found at http://dlnr.hawaii.gov/dar/files/2014/05/Haena_13-60.8dr.pdf.

My husband committed a crime 25 years ago when he was 17, and he served his sentence, but he was deported upon release using a law passed after his conviction. His legal status was removed with no hope of ever being able to fix it. He is 42 now, and has felt guilt and shame over his past errors for many, many years. He has tried to work legally on correcting his situation but there are no legal remedies to assist him in earning a second chance. Simply because he returned to the US to be close to his loved ones, and especially his children, he has had to serve more time in prison. All of his friends are here, his family, his children, and his wife. He has no-one in Mexico and would be separated from all those he loves. He grew up here and considers this home, however, he has lost all hope of ever being able to earn his way back. The law has its uses, but punishing people for life who are trying to better themselves and burdening families who are trying to do things the legal and correct way to overcome past errors should not be the end result. Repeal without replacement the following law because it is having far more negative consequences than were originally envisioned: United States Sentencing Commission, Guidelines Manual § 4A1.2, comment. (n.10) (convictions set aside or pardoned are still counted if not based on innocence or error of law); United States v. Hayden, 255 F.3d 768, 772, 774 (9th Cir. 2001) (California "expungment" under 1203.4 not effective for criminal history under USSG). If we cannot repeal the law above, then at least reverse changes to U.S. immigration law enacted in 1996 that revoked the discretion of immigration judges to consider the harm that might be caused to a U.S.-citizen child by the removal of his or her parent. The result is needlessly excessive and harmful to the families involved who are trying to legally overcome these obstacles. There should be a pathway for people in this situation who have learned from their mistakes to allow them to earn forgiveness and get their legal status back. This is a huge nationwide problem with tens of thousands of families being torn apart each year and growing. We need a solution. Please sign this petition to support a way to help the hundreds of thousands of broken families effected so we can reunite families, and make positive improvement in the broken immigration system.

The Committee to Save Mount Manresa is fighting to protect the health and quality of life for local residents and all Staten Islanders. This should be top priority, not the builder's profit margin.

Marijuana is only about as dangerous as alcohol; both can be bad (for different reasons) in excess, but both can also be used safely if one does so occasionally. Also, minors can not vote, and voting age adults should be treated as exactly that: Voting age adults. Not only do voting and military service require if anything more maturity than alcohol, casino gambling, and marijuana, but also, so do all contracts one may sign without parental co-signatures, and likewise applying for rifle permits and completing criminal background checks for volunteer organizations and employment.

Last year, 1,000 workers like me were laid off from Angels Stadium when a new company took over the food and beverage operations. We all had to reapply for our jobs with no guarantee of getting them back. The City of Anaheim owns Angels Stadium. The City Council could have passed one simple law to protect us from losing our jobs at venues the City already owns, but they didn't. For years people like us have been underdogs because the rules haven’t been fair. Now we have the chance to make better rules. With Measure L we can elect a City Council that listens to things we care about. Please sign the petition to show your support for Measure L -- Yes on Districts in Anaheim. Do it for our jobs, our union, and our future.

We believe Coach Hoke is the best man for the job!

Residential Permit Parking can not solve Hampden's parking issues. Residential parking forces residents to pay for area parking permits without guaranteeing any actual parking for those permit holders. It simultaneously takes the right to park on publicly owned and maintained streets away from other neighbors, creating discrimination and division within the neighborhood.
