America needs to provide a timely path to citizenship for all undocumented immigrants. As a teacher of many students learning English as a second language, I have witnessed the suffering of their families, many of whom have struggled for over a decade to become full fledged participants in our society.

We are slowly being poisoned by big business through our food. We are all entitled to know what we are eating. The choice should be ours. We want you to rescind the Monsanto Protection Act and put mandatory labeling on all GMO foods.

Physical education leads to learning, leads to decreasing obesity and other related diseases, and rising health care cost.

Yesterday we and watched in dismay as our Senate voted against sensible gun control measures that the vast majority of the people in this country want and reasonably expected to pass. If you feel fed up with the gun lobby as well as the stranglehold the NRA seems to have on the Republican Party, please sign this petition calling for publication of all Senators who voted against gun control as well as the amount of campaign contributions taken from the gun lobby.

We, the public, are affronted that some state legislators think that ambiguous bill titles and last-minute amendments are an appropriate way to evade basic, procedural safeguards established by our State Constitution. We are calling on the current Hawaii State Legislature to REJECT all bills which were substantively amended in a manner which evades the Constitutional public right to testify on proposed legislation. We are petitioning the legislative bodies to defeat the following bills that were subject to “gut and replace” procedures, and we are petitioning that the following “Frankenstein” bills, that had non-germane material added to them after the opportunity for review in a publicly-noticed hearing, be defeated or be amended to remove the non-germane material prior to a final vote. See filed petition, including bill numbers: http://bit.ly/FrankenSteinPetition We condemn these tactics and strongly oppose these misleading practices which keep the public in the dark.

Corporate money in politics is one of the biggest threats to our democracy. The Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision threatens the basic nature of our democratic system, allowing corporations to spend unlimited sums of money to influence the outcomes of elections. Because candidates with the most money win more than 85 percent of the time, corporations and corporate lobbyists now wield incredible power over the election of our country’s leaders. Congress should serve ALL of the people of this nation, not primarily corporations. Congress must act to ensure we have a democracy of the people, by the people, and for the people—not corporations.

, I especialy think that these children who were brought here when they were babies or todlers should be given a chance at citizenship and schools. I also think in the debate about imagration NAFTA has to be renegotiated. If American companies go to other countries they should pay the workers a fair wage, so they have more of a incentive to stay in thier own countries.

It is obvious that in spite of the will of 92% of the people, including 78% of gun owners, Congress will not find the courage to approve background checks for gun buyers soon enough. The President, however, has the power to issue executive orders, and should at least consider doing so on bahalf of the vast majority of We, the People.

The American people were told that the Manchin Amendment was a blatant violation of the Second Amendment without a specific explanation as to how. The American people were told that the Manchin Amendment would create a gun registry when it specifically received votes from Senators with great NRA ratings because it would prohibit creation of a gun registry. What were those who voted down the Manchin Amendment really thinking by voting no?

My Mentor Raphaelle Richardson And Norman Redwing use to work for Just Family Network. They are being treated with disrespect. Parents and Staff are lying and causing confusion with them. They have been nothing but good people and deserves respect.Our youth should be our top priority, but its not. This conflict needs to be settle the right way.I believe that "Lies are told to closed minded people to avoid conflict and retribution. A closed minded person can't handle the truth, doesn't want the truth and will punish the truth." Thats why we the YOUTH THAT CARE OF MEMPHIS want the truth. We want to be treated fairly and want our voices to be heard thats why we want them back.

Rep. Robert Brawley from NC wants to legalize Bribery. Seriously. He created HB640 which states "A public servant, legislator, or legislative employee may knowingly accept a gift from a lobbyist" Even worse, the bill enables them to not report this bribe! This is clearly legalized corruption and should be stopped!
