Taxicab Authority Investigator Joe Morgan exposed local government corruption between the Nevada Taxicab Authority and taxicab companies and now the Attorney General's Office has pressed charges on Investigator Morgan! Joe should not be facing charges for doing his job and exposing government corruption that harms the public. Joe needs your support-- please sign the petition to drop the charges against Investigator Joe Morgan! _________________________________________________________ "My husband, Joe Morgan, who is an Investigator with the Nevada Taxicab Authority, exposed corruption within the agency. The chief Investigator, Ruben Aquino, failed to disconnect a call with my husband on his cell phone. The conversation that took place between Aquino and Investigator Chris Rivers exposed corruption within the agency. Chief Aquino and Investigator Rivers discussed how the cab companies run the Taxicab Authority and how investigators can’t be heavy handed because the cab companies can’t get employees and they won’t be able to make money. You read correctly, the head law enforcement officer for the police agency that regulates the cab industry was caught discussing with another investigator that the cab companies run the police agency. Joe Morgan exposed this corruption and now he is being charged by the Attorney General’s Office, under the office of Catherine Cortez Masto. The Senior Deputy Attorney General, Jamie J. Resch, is prosecuting Joe Morgan for interception of a wire communication and surreptitious intrusion of privacy by listening device. Even though the conversation took place with cell phones, the Attorney General is arguing that this is wire communication. Their argument is since wires run to a cell tower; then a cell phone is wired communication. So according to the Attorney General’s Office logic, since wires run to a wireless router it is not wireless it is actually wired. Additionally the charge of surreptitious intrusion of privacy by listening device is used for “bugs,” devices placed in a specific location that listens to a private conversation. Again, according to the Attorney General’s Office, if someone has ever “butt dialed” or “pocket dialed” you and you listened to the conversation; you are guilty of a felony punishable by at least a year in prison. The Attorney General’s Office is using its power and unlimited tax payers’ dollars to make up bogus charges to come after and silence Joe Morgan. Joe Morgan has always enjoyed helping people. While still in high school he was a volunteer fireman and certified EMT. He is a disabled Military Veteran who served in Operation Iraqi Freedom. He wanted to continue helping people and became a police officer. Joe Morgan is a father and sole provider of 4 children with his 5th due in July. He teaches and encourages his kids to do the right things. He should not be charged criminally for exposing corruption within an agency that is rotten to the core. At this point he stands to lose his veteran’s benefits he worked so hard to earn. There was a complaint filed against the Chief Aquino, and the Attorney General’s Office conveniently lost the complaint. Instead of Chief Aquino and Investigator Rivers being punished for discussing confidential information about an internal investigation; they came after my husband. Please tell the Attorney General’s Office to stop wasting tax payers’ dollars prosecuting a man who exposed corruption and fix the issues plaguing the Taxicab Authority. We need to stand up and show the Attorney General’s Office that we as Americans are sick and tired of government corruption. Let’s show we will not idly sit by and let the government whether state or federal squash hard working honest Americans into the ground when they speak up against government corruption. Please support Joe Morgan, who stood up against big government and tell the Attorney General’s Office we have had enough! Please sign this petition and stand for liberty." - Thank you, Teresa Morgan _______________________________________________________ MEDIA: http://www.reviewjournal.com/news/taxicab-authority-officers-say-they-re-not-allowed-fully-enforce-law The Nevada Taxicab Authority’s officers could do a better job enforcing laws regulating the taxi industry if only they were allowed to do so, according to two authority investigators. http://www.mynews3.com/content/news/story/Taxicab-Authority-investigator-accused-of/ADl3AbRbHUigFdGjWAEw4Q.cspx

Just as the executive branch is subject to review by Congress, so should the Supreme Court be subject to review by the "people's House".

The media is not reporting on 4 million unemployed people having their unemployment benefits cut, being described as 'lazy' and Congress is refusing to act.

If our government is supposed to be democratic and of and for the people, then the Congress of the United States has become the weakest link in our government by bending to the will of corporate influence. Business people deserve a vote like everyone else, but they don’t deserve their own private Congressperson or legislature.

I am starting this petition because I am a parent of a son who is serving 17 years in federal prison for non-violent drug offender. I am hoping I can get enough people to sign this petition in hopes to reduce my son and others non-violent drug offenders.

New Hampshire Addicts are denied access to treatment on a daily basis. They are put on endless waiting lists and this is inhumane. Addiction is a disease and should be treated as such. Resources for Addicts and their family members is almost non existent here in NH. Prisons are overflowing with addicts, and yet there are no programs for treatment in place. I am the mother of a recovering addict and an advocate for all whom this disease has touched.

CVS/Caremark was the first chain of national pharmacies to take tobacco products off the shelves, but this should be just the beginning. Now we need to encourage other national drugstores to follow suit. "We have been evaluating this product category for some time to balance the choices our customers expect from us with their ongoing health needs," Walgreens spokesman Jim Graham said back in February. They need to hear from us that this is what their customers want. Cigarettes cause more than 480,000 deaths annually in the United States, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.

I am starting this petition to give awareness about the flaws within our justice system. There are a lot of women using our legal system to gain child support for personal reasons, like revenge against the fathers. Proof should have to be provided to the courts proving that the father does support the child financially. Instead what is happening is the courts are ordering the fathers to pay child support of 17% of their earnings with little to no facts supporting the mothers claim. I also believe that depending on the school the child attends, child care should be included within the support cost and not additionally. I also think the standard 17% needs to be adjusted per individual. The 17% hinders the middle class working fathers not allowing them to bond and connect with their child due to excessive working to compensate for the support being rendered to the mother. This is only further effecting the child. I just would like to restate my position with this petition which is not to disagree with financial support needing to be provided for children, but to provide awareness about the injustice in our family court justice system and a move for change within it.

I am starting this petition because we need justice.

California voters can make a major statement to the nation that Congress needs to pass a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizen United and make a simple declaration: Corporations aren't People and Money isn't Speech. The Overturn Citizens United Act (Senate Bill 1272) will put a proposition on this November's ballot so voters can make that statement. The Senate has acted – now it's the Assembly's turn. Sign our petition to the Assembly to pass it today.

On May 19, the Walt Disney Magnet Local School Council voted to move our school day start time to 7:30 am, with only one dissenting vote. The LSC made this decision with little advance notice and without conducting a survey of parents, and despite the overwhelming opposition of parents in attendance at the meeting. The reason given for this decision was that substantial savings of more than $200,000 would be made available to Disney. While this is a significant amount, the savings are outweighed by the higher costs that the earlier start time will impose on our children and our families: a) Tardiness will increase dramatically. On many days, even in good weather, some 50-100 students are waiting in line to enter the building at 8:10 am. In winter the numbers are often far higher. With only 15 minutes between the earliest drop-off and the opening of doors to students, traffic jams are unavoidable. Because Disney students come from across the city, an earlier start time will only aggravate these problems. b) Student safety will be at risk. From mid-December through early February, dawn will come less than half an hour before the school doors open. This will be hazardous for those who walk to school and those walking from the parking lots. Those who take the bus will be waiting in the cold and near total darkness, putting their safety at risk as well. c) The day will be too long for young children. For children in after-school programs at Disney, the Park District and elsewhere, the day will be significantly longer, as working parents will still be unable to pick up their children until 5:30 or 6:00 pm. Given the earlier start time, students will be out of their homes as much as 12 or more hours per day. This will cause increase stress and fatigue for children and limit family time, as bedtimes will have to be earlier as well.

Colleen Simon had her dream job, working at her church to feed hungry families. It was a job, she says, "I was called to by God." And then last week, she was fired because she is married to another woman. Colleen has devoted her life to helping the hungry. She's in a loving, committed relationship. Even now, she bears no ill will toward her church, instead praying for "the day when we are all loved and embraced by our churches." If Colleen Simon is not fit to serve the poor at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church in Kansas City, no one is. One of Pope Francis's top bishops in Italy recently called for including gay Christians in church life, less than a year after Francis himself called for a new tone. But the local bishop, Robert Finn, seems not to have gotten the message.
