Exxon does not have to and will not pay for the oil spill in Arkansas. Congress made this possible and needs pressure to change the law. Perhaps putting pressure on Exxon will help this process

II am an ESRD patient who depends solely on Social Security for my income.

In Tampa, Florida one can view the news weekly and people are being convicted for filling false tax returns all of the time. Why not put a square box on the tax form where one must put their thumb print to ensure the true identity of the tax payer?

We need a law that prevents pregnant women doing harm to their unborn children by their acts of smoking tobacco, smoking marijuana, drinking alcohol and conuming other types of drugs. I live in a small town in Illinois where I constantly see pregnant women smoking and drinking and I have tried to educate many of the harmful effects of the newborn but found that with any addiction, women find it difficult to quit. I would like to see women who use drugs while pregnant forced to become educated through rehab or jail if the pregnant women aren't willing to take the steps to stop. I would also like to see the child be removed at birth and brought to a safer environment. Not enough is being done to prevent this form of child abuse.

Please, I humbly ask you to sign this petition to tell President Obama to keep his hands OFF, of our Social Security! Chained CPI's are cuts to Social Security, that President Obama is proposing. Chained CPI's will hurt those who need it the most, our elderly. I don't want to end up in poverty in my elderly years, do you? Mahalo and Aloha~

The US Postal Service and all of its employees, including myself are affected by this action. The Senate, Congress and the President of the USA are the cause of the Postal Service issues,This is due to a 75Billion Dollar forced Retirement fund the Government issued to be paid over a limited time period that was unfeasable to begin with and is not accessable to recover.

We live in Milford PA and are concerned about the economy of our town when essential recreational and public land is being shut down by the National Park Service, and agency that is directly under the Minister of the Interior, as a result of sequestration. The amount of money that is cut is marginal compared to the loss cuts loss of revenue to the town and surrounding areas. We urge Jonathan Jarvis to open his eyes to the consequences and find another, less pernicious place to save $250,000.

Massachusetts has an historic opportunity to make a real investment in our schools, roads, and public transit in order to create good jobs and strengthen our communities. Yet this week, the legislature is faced with voting on an inadequate proposal. We can’t continue to kick the can down the road. Now is the time to be bold and address our aging trains and schools, our crumbling roads and bridges.

It is hard enough to live on social security now..... and it seems everytime we have a debit crisis, they want to cut social security. This is NOT a handout. I worked all my life and paid into this program. So did the majority of people drawing social security. If you must make cuts, make them where the people involved will not be devistated!!!

MY WIFE AND I LIVE ON SOCIAL SECURITY.

My mother is 82 and solely dependent on Social Security. Not only that, legal American citizens work their butts of to make a living and pay into the Social Security system. NO ONE has the right to tell working class citizens that they do not deserve to get their money back to support them in their old age!
