I was brought to this country at the age of 8. I am 33 years old and a mother of three, and it is frustrating not being able to go with my children on field trips and participate in school activities due to the lack of a Social Security number to perform a background check. My children and their education is my top priority. An immigration reform is needed so I can help my kids achieve their goals. They are DREAMers too; I myself am a DREAMer!

Handicap people that have a special parking permit in car should not have to pump their own gas as same for senior citizens .Gas station should have special pumps for their gas.

Oregon Bill Would Bar Local GE/GMO Policies Although Washington is getting a lot of buzz on its labeling bill, Oregon is also a hotbed of activity in the fight against genetically engineered (GE) crops. Citizens in Jackson County (in Southern Oregon) have successfully achieved getting a GE crop ban on the May 2014 ballot. Citizens in four other Oregon counties are also hard at work on similar county GE crop bans. These local policies have been instrumental in eliminating genetically engineered crops in other states. Several counties and cities in California, Hawaii, Washington, and Maine have already adopted policies to ban the growing of GE crops in their counties. Oregon counties should be allowed the same level of local control as these other states. But local policies such as these are now in jeopardy in Oregon due to a biotech industry-backed bill in the Oregon Senate. The bill, Senate Bill 633, would strip counties in Oregon of their abilities to craft appropriate county-wide seed policies. SB 633 would give exclusive regulatory power over seeds, and products of agricultural seed, to the state, preempting local authority. This would make it impossible to establish local policies which put restrictions or prohibitions on genetically engineered crops. The bill is being heard in the Senate Committee for Rural Policy and Economic Development on March 12th, so please take action today! Tell your state Senator to oppose this bill!

Tom Corbett is scheduled to be the 2013 Commencement speaker at Millersville University's Graduation Ceremony. Interestingly enough, he has proved himself to be an opponent of public education. Our speaker should be someone who makes education a priority and shows an interest in the students. Tom Corbett has consistently made decisions that work against the students. We have worked hard to get to graduation, and he does not deserve the honor of speaking at our ceremony.

This petition is in direct response to recent bills introduced in the North Carolina House and Senate just in the first two months of 2013 to bring unnecessary gun protection measures into our public and private schools.

The legislature and Gov. Bentley are causing more harm to the children of Alabama. They are making POOR decisions that will effect our children and grandchildren to come.

It costs around $20,000 a year to keep an inmate locked up. With one in eight behind bars for simply possessing a plant, we could prune wasteful spending. Taxing marijuana would put money into schools and infastructure. Consequently it would weaken the cartels and gangs.

I am an environmental Program manager and am appalled at the lack of knowledge in the general population regarding the various environmental issues. The most obvious example, but far from the only example, the existence of Global Warming is not debatable. It is as certain as the fact that smoking increases the risk of cancer, but unlike smoking, Global Warming could shorten the lives of everyone! New York City talks about adapting to Global Warming by redistricting and declaring more areas 'flood prone'. How is New York going to adapt to to 128 feet of sea rise and level 5 hurricanes coming through every year. How is America going to adapt when 53% of its population are environmental refugees - forced to leave their homes. And this is only one of a series of environmental issues of which most people are completely uneducated.

HOUSING AND ALL LOW-INCOME SERVICES.

TOOK AWAY FUNDINGS from PROGRAMS (DEO) I NEEDED BE TRAINED. TO HELP US BACK INTO THE WORKFORCE. Having to stand in line for over 4HRS TO VOTE. LICENSE RENEWAL PROCESS, ridiculous. JOB SECURITY is not the RIGHT TO WORK LAW. There is to much discrimination going on here, and I have lost my job due to this discrimination process that is going on. I believe the laws here in FL. have always been set to effect negatively, people of color and the down and out. This has to stop.

The people of South Carolina deserve the benefits of the Medicaid Expansion provision of the Affordable Care Act. Gov. Haley plans to reject $11 billion in federal money which will pay for medical care for 500,000 of our neediest citizens. In addition to those medical benefits, $11 billion will create nearly 44,000 jobs in SC by 2020, boosting the state's health care industry and stimulating the overall SC economy. It will reduce ER visits and lower costs. If SC does NOT take advantage of the federal money, the SC share will be used elsewhere.
