The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has dropped a bombshell on Gov. Nathan Deal’s record of diverse appointments, or lack thereof. We were shocked by the numbers. 800+ appointments: 93% are white 70% are men. This does not look like Georgia. For the record, Georgia is 51% female and 40% non-white. So if you’re like us, you see something very wrong with these numbers. We need a state government that looks like Georgia. Georgia is diverse, Georgia is majority female and Georgia wants to move our state and culture forward into the 21st Century and not turn back the clock 60 years. We can do this. We can make Georgia the state we know it can be: a leader, once again, in the South. Georgia can be a state where people move to start a business and raise a family because we welcome everyone and support a strong and diverse community. Tell the Gov. Deal that we want executive appointments to reflect what Georgia really looks like and all the people who live in Georgia -- and not just who donates to the Governor’s campaigns.

Fracking—injecting massive amounts of water and toxic chemicals into the ground to reach previously inaccessible oil and gas—is an extreme process, with catastrophic results

The NRA is revealing itself to be nothing more than a front for arms dealers and weapons manufacturers whose aim is to destroy AMerica through domestic civil war. We are a lll affected every day---just pick up a newspaper.

Most of the money from red light cameras go to the camera companies. Yet another private company should not be getting rich off of the poor. At $100 a ticket this regressive tax should not be happening. We should find other ways to make money for our cities instead of forcing people to choose sometimes between a need and a ticket.

You don't know what will or can happen---much research into these projects needs done. Let's research alternative energy.

Fracking—injecting massive amounts of water and toxic chemicals into the ground to reach previously inaccessible oil and gas—is an extreme process, with catastrophic results. Maybe you've seen the footage of people in Pennsylvania lighting their tap water on fire after it's been contaminated with chemicals used in fracking. While industry claims it is a safe process, they cannot know what will happen once they start disturbing geologic structures--including groundwater and aquifer contamination--and possibly inducing earthquakes. Fracking uses massive amounts of precious water and threatens our water, our air, our farms, and our health—and contributes to global warming.

As a mother of two, I am concerned about the future of CA if fracking is allowed. How can injecting massive amounts of water and toxic chemicals into the ground to reach oil and gas be in the best interest of the citizens of CA, in particular our children? There are other cleaner, more responsible ways to generate energy. Please stand up to the oil and gas industries and stand with the citizens of CA who OPPOSE fracking.

Fracking is an extremely toxic method of extracting oil and natural gas from the ground. It pollutes not only the earth, but water and air as well, as toxic chemicals and water are forcefully pumped underground to force out oil and natural gas. Please add your voice and tell our elected officials in California that we want this destructive, polluting method banned in California--they will only take action on our behalf if they hear from us.

Fracking is a destructive, polluting natural gas extraction process. California should reject it as a method for obtaining energy.

I spent 2 years making a film in Bangladesh and I'd frequently drive by the garment factories and talk to garment factory workers. Hearing about the Tazreen factory fire last November and now the building collapse in Savar, it is time to ask you to lead the way in changing the status quo. From what I've ready your company had garments being made at both locations and to be realistic, only a company of your size has the pull to make this necessary change and lead the way for other manufacturers to follow.

The air we breathe and the water we drink will negatively affect the health of local communities. California must lead in the efforts to defeat fracking.

I absolutely oppose fracking!!! I will never vote for any politician that supports such an irresponsible extraction of our natural resources!!!
