Dane County has a large elderly and handicapped population with little or no public transportation to use on appointments, shopping, socializing, entertainment. I believe there are buses, vans, taxis, and private vehicles that could be used with a coordinated effort and some public funding. Support for drivers to acquire the necessary driving license along with gasoline subsidies are needed.

Benefits that were agreed on are in danger of being cut for current and retired Illinois employees. This petition is to inform the legislature of our feelings. Their vote to cut benefits will be reflected in the next election through posting of each member's voting record.

This IS the issue of our lifetime. Nothing else approaches it's importance on the face of the earth today. Not GLBT, not second amendment, not immigration reform, nothing touches the critical subject of clean and fair elections. For if we do not have elected representatives who are in place to act as solely as agents of U.S. Citizens then we can't guarantee any of these other rights will be safe.

I think Congrss medical coverages be changed to the same as medicare and every time social security or medicvare is cut congress pay is cut they should pay taxes on all the perks received same as the working person and they should not earn retirement until they have 12 years of retirement also they would only be allowed 4 terms so new blood can come in

Arrived from Mexico in 1989 and still undocumented. This is the time for a reform to change the status of milliions of hard working people that contribute unequivocally for a better America.

We have had "right turn on red" for many years to save fuel. We need to further reduce fuel waste and idling pollution by reducing the restrictions on left turns. When ever reasonable "left turn on arrow only" should be changed to "left turn yield" at intersections that do not have sufficient oncoming traffic to warrant the restriction.

Recently we have seen many examples of an astounding degree of ignorance of basic scientific principles, procedures, and facts by many members of congress, and other government officials. From the denial of global warming/climate change to the belief in the magical ability of women to prevent conception after they've been raped. Do we want the future and present of our planet to be controlled and determined by such ignoramuses? We, the people, must make sure that our legislators can pass a test in basic scientific literacy -to be drawn up by recognized scientists in each field: physics; chemistry; biology; geology; CLIMATOLOGY; and, ecology, at the very least. No one should be able to assume office unless they have passed the test. (It could be called," No Politician Left Behind.") This is a serious proposal; our planet needs to be saved from environmental destruction, Now.

Congress and benefits to themselves are out of control

No a la Guerra en la Península Coreana

The NRA can't wield any influence without money. While most NRA members support common sense regulations to reduce gun violence, the NRA itself persists with obstructionism, bullying and misinformation campaigns that go against its membership's desires.

Our foreign policies have always created an unfair advantage for third-world nations and resulted in increased emigrations from the devastated homelands to countries where there was a better chance to survive.

The NRA is intentionaly preventing any forward movement of gun laws solely to help benefit gun and ammunition manugacturers. The fact that a large and ever growing number of it's members are starting to cancel memberships or take issue against the organization.
