This pipeline will directly affect my community! We all know that fracking is dangerous and environmentally destructive. We also hear about how pipelines are not inspected as much as they should be, so they leak. Just the building of these pipelines alone is damaging to ecologically sensitive areas (and, yes, this pipeline will affect such areas). It's time to tell our politicians to stop taking Big Oil's money and to invest in solar/wind energy and overall energy efficiency! We can't take anymore fossil fuel destruction! UPDATE!!! HERE'S A NEW LINK TO CHECK OUT (THE PREVIOUS ONE IS DEFUNCT): http://www.sierraclub.org/new-jersey/pilgrim-pipeline

For years now we, the Undersigned, have heard it told and had it said that Jimmy John's Gourmet Sandwich Shoppe is the BEST place in the country to work. Fast food. Fast friendly customer service, in a clean comfortable environment. And maybe, in the early going, the Company was that at one time BUT, not any longer! Now Jimmy John's is a company and a restaurant franchise chain fraught with lies, deceit, stagnation and inflation and all is at the expense of both the employees who work there and the customers who still eat their sandwiches. This has to STOP! That is why we call upon Jimmy John's CEO & Founder James Jonathan Liautaud to Clean Up His Act! Clean Up His Stores! Clean Up His Stagnation! And stop the deflation and degradation of the wages of his employees. This Labor Day 2014 Mr. Liautaud do something worthy of the term Labor by coming to the table with your workers and getting to the business of Cleaning Up Your Act! Quit balancing your company's bottom line on the backs of your employees and your customers. The overall quality is way down while the costs have gone way up, and that's no way to do business sir, respectfully. Thank you! Happy Labor Day 2014.

The Camden facility is wasting money that they claim they do not have for their workers to earn a fair wage. No pay raises for 2 yrs. Claiming their drivers are "the highest paid in the industry", while failing to realize the industry, as a whole, is underpaid!!! A new 55" flatscreen TV was bought & is collecting dust in the break room. New O.B.U. ( On Board Units ) were bought when there were O.B.U's already in the trucks. Company spent money on "drivecam"- Cameras mounted in vehicles to watch their employees behind the wheel. Many have been fired for "events" behind the wheel. Some justified, Many were not. New cell phones were bought when there were already cell phones in use. Also, Medical bennefits are getting worse every year. The District Manager said "benefits are based on a 55 hour work week". Many aren't working 55 hrs. per week to be able to afford healthcare. Not to mention Waste Management owed Wheelabrator was just sold for 1.94 BILLION dollars. Share holders & management are benefitting from major profits & squeezing their employees dry. Employees are the backbone of the company.

As a cyclist in Los Angeles this issue hits close to home. If a wealthy politically connected white man like Milt Olin can be run down with impunity by incompetent law enforcement, what hope is there for anyone else in this city? This deputy has shown in a very real and tragic way that people are incapable of driving while distracted, and doing so essentially weaponizes your vehicle.

On-call scheduling is now used by many retailers, and it is unfair and treats retail workers as commodities rather than human beings. If you are only able to get 15 - 20 hours at one retailer then you have to get a second job to break even and fill in the gaps that food stamps and housing grants don't pay. That is impossible the way that retailers use on-call scheduling.

Education should be a priority in the U.S.

There are so many important things that our Congress should be tackling for our country. I don't think I have to spell it out for our representatives that they are lacking in getting important issues solved, as in Infrastructure, climate change, raising the minimum wage, removing subsidies for large corporations, stopping the toxic oil spills & poisoning of our citizens from fracking. The Republicans make up stories about this and that, (Benghazi) 501(c)4 that should NOT be used for political contributions, and you know it. The IRS investigation is and was a waste of time & money. We, the American people, want our money back that has been wasted. Ted Cruz needs to pay back all the money wasted with his government shutdown and Darrell Issa needs to payback the American people for the monies he has wasted. And, NO funds from the taxpayers should be used for any lawsuit against our president! A lawsuit against our president is un-American and is treason.

Neil Abercrombie was elected Governor of Hawaii with the help of the environmental community. Once elected, he abandoned good environmental principles and pushed things like the Public Lands Development Corporation. He angrily called environmentalists the "left-wing Tea Party." He went down to the largest defeat ever in the 2014 election, when environmentalists turned their backs on him. Don't let Abercrombie's actions threaten good land use in Hawai'i.

There is a need for a disabled resident to be able to safely navigate to neighbors housing without the fear of becoming stuck in her travels or even isolated.

I am a nurse with 35 years experience. I work at Christus St. Vincent hospital. I am a member of District 1199NM National Health Care Union of Hospital and Heath Care Employees. Parts of the hospital are chronically understaffed. This is a health and safety issue for both the patients and the staff. As part of contract negotiations 1199NM has asked for a guaranteed minimum level of staffing. The hospital administration is refusing to negotiate this. This is possible to do. California currently has a law mandating staffing levels. A study in the New England Journal of Medicine concluded “staffing of RNs below target levels was associated with increased mortality.” The Center for Health Outcomes and Policy Research at the University of Pennsylvania had the same finding.
