Louisiana HB1274 (which was HB348) forces women to be kept on life support as human incubators. Instead of honoring her wishes (even in a living will), family wishes, and medical advice, this bill says the government can decide for you. There is no exception for suffering, no accounting for a severely impaired fetus, and no explanation of who will pay for this unwanted care.

For a year and a half, fast food employees and other low-wage workers across the country have been organizing and striking for $15 an hour and the right to form a union without retaliation. Now, the city of Seattle has just announced a landmark agreement to raise the minimum wage to $15. Seattle's wage raise will pump $500 million back into their economy without raising taxes. Large employers paying the lowest wages are subsidized by our taxes when their low-paid employees are forced to use public programs like welfare just to get by. This is a huge victory for workers, but it's only the beginning of a wave that will sweep across the country. Republicans in the Senate just blocked an increase in the federal minimum wage--but cities like Seattle are showing that progress is made locally. Who's next? In Detroit, raising the minimum wage to $15 will provide a dramatic boost for thousands of working families and the local economy.

As a lifelong Flyers' fan I have seen......seasons ending far too soon, free agency players let go by the wayside, excellent players traded away to other teams only to go on and contribute & win Stanley Cups! Let's not forget the players past their prime acquired & those many contracts with far too much time & money written into them! We are the loyalest fan base in the NHL & deserve more than "next year"! Paul Holmgren has had 8 seasons as a GM and gotten us nowhere. Hexy is back, give him & your fans a chance!

I want people with disabilities to LIVE.

This is an issue that should inspire MoveOn members to take action and make a big difference. I'm a local MoveOn member and wanted to step up to lead this campain about this important issue.

Teachers in Ohio welcome evaluations that provide feedback and identify opportunities for professional growth. The House sub-bill shifts the focus of evaluations from thoughtfully and thoroughly identifying such opportunities to a process that puts the majority of teachers on an improvement plan as a way to falsely indicate they are not performing well in their jobs. This is untrue and unfair to teachers and students. Stop the attack on teachers and focus on what works in Ohio. Urge your legislators to reject the House sub bill and support the Senate version of SB 229 for a fair and valid teacher evaluation process.
