Seat belts On School busesI believe that every school bus should have a seat belt for each student. Seat belts are required on all vehicles, including airplanes, for the safety of its passengers. I know that the seats on the school buses are raised and made with extra padding for protection, but what will stop kids from being thrown around the bus or thrown out of a window if the school bus rolls over in an accident?37 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Iyunicah Ram

Give fired and laid-off workers an even breakThousands, if not hundreds of thousands of people have been let go from their jobs to allow corporations to save money on payroll or insurance premiums. Most are older workers or employees who "run up" the premiums with frequent healthcare visits. They sign a statement to remain silent about details and circumstances of their exit, in exchange for a meager severance. However, by law, if New Company X calls Previous Company Y about the fired or laid-off employee, X can ask Y "Is s/he (the candidate) eligible for re-hire." A "no" from Previous Company Y, without explanation, is a nail in the coffin for the candidate. This is an unfair and discriminatory practice: the ex-employee cannot comment about Y but the Y, by answering "no" to the eligibility question, says it all and can totally destroy the ex-employee's chances for employment. This situation requires immediate legislative action to ensure that people are hired based on skills, experience and abilities and not on the bias of a former employer.15 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Claire Fernanda Dobie
