The town of redding needs a police commission to manage the department and represent the taxpayers.

The President has suggested cutting Social Security as a compromise with the GOP-controlled House. Please sigb this petition requesting that he NOT TOUCH SOCIAL SECURITY!

Our Representatives have failed us in profound ways.

We put solar panels on our roof 4 years ago and love having no electric bill.

I am a recipient of Social Security benefits. It's already highly inadequate for financing my modest living expenses. I don't know how I can survive if my meager benefits shrink even further.

FOX & NBC are threatening to force us to pay for them because Aereo is stealing their broadcasts.

President Obama released a budget proposal with $112 billion in Social Security cuts. According to the AARP, a typical 80-year-old woman will lose the equivalent of three months worth of food annually under this plan. Today, we reflect on why cutting Social Security is a bad idea: The Government does not fund Social Security, not directly makes contributions to SS. Workers are the only contributing factor. SS is not insolvent. Fact: SS is stable. The government wants to turn it into a voucher system, subject to the stock market. We Simply cannot afford to let this happen. By adding your signature, your signature sends a strong message to our elected officials that we are standing behind them for doing the right thing. Please add your voice to this very important issue. Thank you for all that you do. Larry Green

Beautiful Mount Manresa on Staten Island, is a 10 acre ecological treasure containing mostly original natural landscape unchanged for thousands of years. It is for sale and now in contract to be sold to housing developer in early June. The land was once part of an estate dating back to the 1600s and owned by the Jesuits as a retreat since 1911, being the oldest in America. The land retains the original Terminal Moraine ( hillside ) formed by a glacier during the last Ice Age 20,000 years ago and provides fabulous views of New York Harbor. Rare very old Oak and Tulip trees over a hundred feet tall and a unique old brick water tower from the nineteenth century are found on the property. The north side of the glacial hill contains a concentration of very old Oak and Tulip trees which have grown to great heights. At the base of this hill is beautiful grotto and valley. It is urgent that this petition be signed so this beautiful landscape be protected and preserved as a park for current and future generations can enjoy. The landscape is in great danger of being destroyed by the developer. Once it's gone it is gone forever. For more info, visit our website at www.savemanresa.org

I couldn't believe it when I saw a promo for a new History Channel show called "Chasing Tail" which is a common term for men in search of sexual favors with the "tail" being a female body part. The promo shows Red Necks with rifles hunting "White Tail Deer". I am insulted as a women that the History Channel is using this slur as the title for yet another show celebrating Red Neck Culture. Demand that they either change the title or take the show off the air.

Our global atmospheric carbon level is now about 393 parts per million. It was determined by leading global climatologists, in 2008, that to stabilize planet Earth, we need to be at 350 ppm. We need to lower these levels, as soon as possible, to be assured that we are not meeting the point of no return, avoiding climate chaos. Two remedies deserve your attention and support.

There are many seniors who do not get hugh social security benefits. Let them take social security from the multi- millionaires who do not need it. And to stop giving oil companies, sugar, and rich farmers subsidies.

I have had my intercity mobility restricted by the suspension of Amtrak's Sunset Limited train segment between New Orleans and Orlando. Dozens of communities have had their only transportation alternative under a "temporary suspension" since Hurricane Katrina. To help these citizens like myself, and for the sake of its economic benefits, the Federal Government MUST put an end to this political laziness and provide funding for a daily Amtrak train from New Orleans to Orlando!
