Senate bills 25, 97 and 537 are each designed to take private health care decisions away from a woman and her doctor. I am urging you to vote against ALL of these bills and any bill that withholds health care from Texas women.

Support the Dawson Plan to create 3million jobs in 90 days. We can do this by using a bank ( Ally Financial). This bank is owned 74% by the American taxpayers because we bailed it out. Let us use the bank we bailed out to create 3 million jobs in 90 days the Dawson Plan will show you how.

In light of the recent incident in Connecticut and others involving firearms, I am struck with how little the issue of financial liability is mentioned in the owning, safeguarding and usage of this class of hazardous machines. Instead of the narrative of whether a citizen should have the 2nd Amendment right to own a firearm, and all the political and emotional dialog preventing solutions, I propose a new narrative

I am a retired teacher.

Our democratic legislators should begin to vote, act and legislate like democrats or call themselves something diferent.

If passed, AR House Bills 1418, 1041, 1585, and 1586 would severely reduce funding to institutions of higher education in the state.

I am utterly fed up with congressional failure to enact a responsible budget. Surely nothing more need be said.

My petition is about a everyday crime that decreases very little each year. RAPE IS REALITY. I was affected for life at the age of nineteen in a small community walking home from a birthday party. I was beaten on the roadside, thrown into a truck, (Kidnapped from the roadside} raped repeatedly. The justice system failed me. I remain with scars deep within and hearing loss from the brutal beatings. There was no help, counselors, agencies etc. at the time of my rape. It destroyed my life for years. I was alone. I am a independent law activist for victims rights, and a independent speaker on rape and healthcare, and a independent advocate. I think in schools reality of crime of rape and it's affects on all parties involved victims/survivors should be a topic studied in the classes of Sexual Education to boys and girls at a appropriate age and level of comprehension in separate classes from each other. We have to start some where because our Rape criminal's are violating victims and causing bodily harm and mental illness to their victims. Seriously something needs to happen now! Public awareness as well/under no circumstances does a woman/man boy/girl ask for rape or deserve rape. IT IS NOT A VICTIMS FAULT STOP BLAMING A VICTIM FOR THE CRIME OF RAPE!

Please make our children education top priority over activities such as chess clubs.

Student loan debt now exceeds $1 trillion. The debt burden now falls on 37 million Americans. Over recent decades, higher education has been treated as an individual commodity, rather than a public good or an investment in our collective future. As a result, millions are now buried under the weight of student debt and are putting off major purchases and life decisions. This has serious negative consequences for our economy and our future. This is NOT only a "young person's problem." At least 60% of the $1 Trillion is owed by Americans over the age of 30. In short, student loan debt has become the latest financial crisis in America. If we do absolutely nothing, the entire economy will eventually come crashing down again, just as it did when the housing bubble popped. But now, there is a solution: H.R. 1330 - The Student Loan Fairness Act - Introduced in the House of Representatives by Rep. Karen Bass (D-CA) and co-sponsored by Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-FL)! The Student Loan Fairness Act would create a new “10-10” standard for student loan repayment, in which an individual would be required to make ten years of payments at 10% of their discretionary income, after which, their remaining student loan debt would be forgiven. Further, this legislation would: • ensure low interest rates; • allow those eligible to convert their private loan debt into federal direct loans; • reward graduates for entering public service professions; • provide a lifeline for student borrowers who have fallen on difficult times; • encourage delinquent and defaulted borrowers to re-enter repayment; • replace the current, 10 year “Standard Repayment Plan” for the full amount of the loan balance with the “10-10” plan as the default repayment option for borrowers entering repayment. Student loan debt causes an undeniable and significant drag on the economy. The Student Loan Fairness Act directly addresses this enormous boot on the neck of the middle class and represents a glimmer of hope for millions of Americans who, with each passing day, find that the American Dream is more and more out of reach. Therefore, we, the undersigned, respectfully request that Congress vote Yes on H.R. 1330, the Student Loan Fairness Act and, thereafter, that President Obama sign this bill into law.

The government is currently out of touch with how a huge percentage of the citizens feel about them and their lack of action. Only working a few hours a week and doing nothing in the process is making the American people lose faith in them and this can bring about rather bad results. If the elected officials lose many of their benefits and only get paid when working, maybe they will do better.

Senator Diane Feinstein's hard work on this issue will finally come to a Senate vote in the next few weeks. This is our chance to encourage Senators Baucus and Tester to show some backbone by supporting national monitoring of gun sales.
