PETA has approached NASCAR about sponsorship. It costs millions of dollars to sponsor a driver/car. If they have millions of dollars to spend on marketing, why isn't the money being used to promote adoptions of healthy animals in the community? I believe their non-profit status should be revoked and the entire organization investigated for fraud and possible animal abuse.

People with invisible illness such as Fibromyalgia, Lupus and many others should be able to obtain pain medication at any time with any Doctor. Iowa needs to be the first state to allow some humanity to those of us who suffer everyday in silence and fear of being pain managed beyond the current strict guidelines!

For the Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe to step down from his postion.

In 2006 a law was passed by the lame duck Congress to make the USPS pay in advance 75 years of pensions financially crippling the service. Now they're eliminating Saturday services.

Smart meters pose known serious risks to health including cancer, and pollute the environment. They increase the likelihood of theft by monitoring a household's schedule. The American Academy of Environmental Medicine has called for a moratorium on the installation of transmitting utility meters. Present legislation, H.B. 2289 - Enacted – 5/11/2009, allows the installation of “'innovative energy technology,' to include smart grid and/or smart metering." This law must be changed.

For the past few years, Rep. Darryl Issa has waged a campaign against the US Postal Service, in order to destroy it in favor of mail delivery by the much less efficient (and far more expensive) FedEx. This isn't about "email is the Next Big Thing so we don't need the Post Office". (Email can't send packages, for one thing). Behind the scenes, Rep. Issa has been forcing the USPS to pre-fund its members' retirements AND sick pay, up to 15 years into the future! No other company or corporation is forced to operate under these circumstances, and the American People want its Postal Service with its nationwide network of facilities to continue, and DO NOT WANT the far more expensive AND inefficient FedEx (or any other private postal service) to replace it!

Universal wifi provided free of charge to the residents of the Commonwealth would stimulate the economy and draw more businesses to locate here. With speeds as much as 200 times faster than the typical commercial offerings, innovation and entrenprenurial activities will be encouraged. It is the wave of the future that Massachusetts should ride ahead of the rest of the country, except of course where it has already been adopted. See Kansas City.

A way for anyone to show solidarity with the important climate rally in DC on Feb. 17, by one day of non-participation in oil dependence.

The District of Columbia comprises 630,000 people but has no right to elect senators or representatives to represent them. This denies them the basic right of representation in a democracy. Congress should right this wrong
