• Eliminate Gestation Crates from North Carolina Slaughter Houses
    As documented by the humane society: “Most breeding pigs in the U.S. are confined in gestation crates for virtually their entire lives. For several years, they're confined to crates that nearly immobilize them, enduring a cycle of repeated impregnation. These individual cages are approximately 2 feet wide—so small the animals can't even turn around or take more than a step forward or backward.”

  • Take PA To Court
    In the last election Democrats got over 50% of the vote and less than 33% of the legislators because of gerrymandering. That means an R vote is 2x more effective than a D vote and that's unconstitutional. There's no point worrying about anything else until we fix this, because we don't have any power this way. We should put our efforts and funds into suing for equity instead of trying to lobby R's that don't care what we say because they know our votes don't count.

  • Paid Parental Leave: U.S. vs. The World
    When Australia passed a parental leave law in 2010, it left the U.S. as the only industrialized nation not to mandate paid leave for mothers of newborns. The United States has no mandatory paid family leave policy, making it one of just three countries in the world and the only country in the first-world to not mandate paid maternity leave for new mothers (Swaziland and Papua New Guinea are the others). Many countries give new fathers paid time off as well or allow parents to share paid leave.

  • Tougher Laws on Child Abuse and Animal Abuse
    Does not anyone realize that animal abuse and child abuse go hand and hand. A person who commits a crime against an innocent animal will do the same to an innocent child. I moved to KY from NH and am very appalled that child abuse is not an issue that is addressed here in KY. Animal and child abusers see a big welcome sign here in KY. Welcome the state where you can abuse a child and an animal and get away with it.

    We remember Bosnia, Cambodia, Rwanda. Enough! Stop the killing, maiming, and torture of children in Syria. Tell President Obama to enact a No-Fly Zone over Syria immediately. “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.” ― Elie Wiesel
