Disabled Students have no voice on SGA. We have no representation on SGA. We have been segregated from other students. Disabled Students do not recieve Scholarships and CFellowships at UMKC. We are not admitted Professional Student programs. At UMKC we are even told that we cannot get certified to teach disabled children because we are disabled. Disability is not the end of the world but at UMKC disabled students cannot get an stipend for student employment like the other demographics. We need your help. Please sign this petition so that UMKC lets Disabled Students be a part of student government. Thank You in Advance

The Food and Drug Administration does not require safety testing of new genetically modified foods (“GMOs”), instead relying on corporations' profits from the sale of such foods to ensure their safety for us. Contrary to industry claims, GMO foods have not been proven safe, and a growing body of independent, peer-reviewed studies have linked the consumption of GMO foods to allergies, infertility, immune problems, gastrointestinal disruption, cancer, and a host of other diseases. GMO crops can easily contaminate non-GMO crops, threatening organic agriculture, and their use is linked to increases in toxic pesticide use and the emergence of “superweeds.” Further, the absence of labeling of GMO foods and seeds prohibits those with specific ethical or religious practices from making informed food choices. More than 60 other countries around the world inform their citizens if their food is genetically engineered, and national polls consistently show that more than 90% of Americans want to share this same basic human right. GMO labeling legislation has been introduced in over 25 states, and on June 3, 2013, Connecticut passed a GMO labeling law - the first in the nation. But, it requires at least four other states to adopt similar legislation before it goes into effect. One state must border Connecticut. Massachusetts now has the opportunity to help protect the transparency, integrity, and democracy of our food supply for all Americans.

Our daughter is special needs and has been unsuccessful working in community based settings as have many of her friends. Funding is being taken away from MA special needs production workshops which will harm many of these citizens who have no control over their future and depend on our elected legislatures to protect them. It would be unthinkable to take away their paycheck, no matter the amount, and their contribution to society which they are proud of. Our understanding is that the production floors are to close by 2015.

Please remove OEA secretary Mr Insulza from his job. He is not responsibly attending the Venezuela political and social crisis. Yesterday he cancelled an emergency meeting requested by Panama president to discuss the case. If he is not doing his job, he needs to be audited , removed and substituted promptly

The city needs to support Monday hating Lasagna eating cats.

After the 2007 economic crash, my 40 year old son lost his supervisor job in Phoenix. He has had to work two minimum wage jobs since then.

My son is affected by low wages from Walmart. He has trouble paying his bills and just getting by with groceries. Rep. Coffman should sign the bill to give thousands of Americans a raise! The working people in America deserve it.

Minimum wage affects all wages and wages have remained stagnant for to long and in many cases have even receded all the while cost of living has skyrocketed

California is the only place in the world where oil companies can come, drill, and extract oil without paying a dime in royalties. But that oil is our inheritance, and if we're not leaving it for our children, we should at least be using it to help build a better future for them. After all the cuts to services we've had to endure, this is an obvious way to add revenue to the treasury, and it hits an industry that has no need for special tax treatment, nor moral argument for it.

I am starting this petition to improve our economy. Higher wages give workers more $$$ to spend and buy products thus creating more jobs. Rep. Mica and other republican politicians probably get large donations from big corps like Wal-mart to block living wages for their workers so that they can make higher profits and buy more influence in Washington.

As a long-time voter in RI I have often spent hours standing in lines at polling places. Now a retiree, it's not that hard on me but for working people who must take time off a job or spend a lot of time at night, this bill would prompt many more to vote. It's time for our state to join the increasing number of states allowing early voting.
