Christoper Williams is innocent there wasn't a fair trial, no DNA against him he wasn't competent to stand trial..he's mentally impaired and was found guilty in thirty minutes I'm asking that he has a fair trial and that a innocent man be released

I'm starting this petition in the hope that the proper authorities will conduct a fair investigation of the murder of Jesus Huerta. We are not satisfied with the explanation that he shot himself in the head while his hands were cuffed behind his back.

Because we always hear these officials say if we raise minimum wage it will cause all things to go up. But what we are really seeing is that minimum wage is behind cost of living by 40% it should be around $10.74 and still prices keep going up, so without raising minimum wage prices keep going up so their statements don't hold true. The people of this country have been stripped of their way of life by someone else who is more worried about themselves and their profits, it is time that the people got a raise.

Dear Secretary of State John Kerry, As stated by Senator Paul Wellstone on July 7th 2000, it “is that quite often the victims [of human trafficking] are the ones who are punished, and these mobsters and criminals who are involved in the trafficking of these women and girls with this blatant exploitation get away with literally murder.” As you are aware, the trafficking of human beings is a form of modern-day slavery where people profit from the control and exploitation of others. This is unfortunately very common in the United States, especially in the labor force. Some of the common places where forced labor has been found range from small operations to large-scaled factories. While the Department of Homeland Security looks to protect victims, we find the T-Visa (T Nonimmigrant Status) to restrict this protection due to the incredibly stringent set of requirements for eligibility. In your letter to the readers in the Trafficking in Persons Report of 2013, you state that human trafficking “tears apart families and communities1” and that we “have a moral obligation to meet this challenge head-on.” However, the stringent requirements to obtain a T-Visa only result in more challenges for victims of human trafficking. It is estimated that over 17,000 people are trafficked into the United States each year yet only slightly over half of the T-Visa applications submitted between 2002 and 2010 were approved. We applaud the work being done by you and others such as Representative Chris Smith and Representative Sam Gejdenson in an attempt to prevent men, women, and children from being trafficked. However, we feel as though there is always room for improvement especially in regards to the stringent policies that govern the requirements for eligibility for T-Visas. Sincerely, Arthur, Enya, Jeran, Kathyrn and Dr. Paul Lopez, Ph.D

Why? Because first-time offenders should not be held to the same stringent parole eligibility requirements as repeat and habitual offenders. Also, a lack of maturity and under developed sense of responsibility are found in youth more often than in adults and are more understandable among the young. These qualities often result in impetuous and ill-considered actions and decisions. Essentially, both categories of offenders (the first-timers and youthful) deserve less punishment.

Because I believe that we should work together as a society to be the best than we can be. Not tread on the people we employ for our own profits. "There is no I in team".

The state on a whole suffers when it insists on holding people down specifically, tax payers, commerce and families are the ones adversely effected by housing offenders for excessive number of years.

Raise the NY minimum wage! It's currently $8.00 /hr, and no one can live on that! It should be raised to $12/hr! The line between rich and poor is getting bigger. Lets help by signing this message to our officials.

Fernbank Forest helped: -educate people about nature -develop environmental responsibility in people -foster fellowship in people as they took their nature walks -peak curiousity and instill lifelong learning Ms. Emily Stewart Harrison's family owned most of the land where the forest sits. Ms. Harrison campaigned to preserve the forest in order for it to serve as an environmental teaching tool for people, especially children. It pleased her to see several children enter the forest and enjoy its many wonders just as she had throughout her lifetime (1). Fernbank Inc.'s shutting the community out of the forest goes against the board's inherent duty to use the forest as a teaching tool for as many people as possible. "These heartstrings of ours have a curious way of getting tangled up in things: particular trees and rocks and hill slopes ... but gradually I had come to feel that Fernbank was too big and too beautiful for (one) family('s) consumption ... The best thing to do with it would be to put it into the lives of children . . ."- Emily Harrison http://www.openfernbankforest.com/ (1) http://files.usgwarchives.net/ga/dekalb/bios/harrison994gbs.txt
