The US is awash with guns. There is no need for anyone to own a military style assault weapon and gun magazines loaded with bullets. I am ashamed that the US has many more guns than other advanced nations I want to be proud of our country. So please sign this petition so that we may have new gun policies that will reduce the number of gun deaths in inner cities and gun massacres such as the one in Newtown, CT, that broke the nation's heart.

First put in place from 1985 to 1993, the Mexico City Policy (Global Gag Rule) stipulates that nongovernmental organizations receiving U.S. assistance cannot use separately obtained non-U.S. funds to inform the public or educate their government on the need to make safe abortion available, provide legal abortion services, or provide advice on where to get an abortion. The policy did allow for exemptions in the cases of rape, incest, and the life of the mother, but not for a woman’s physical or mental health.

The economic opportunities that come with Percent for Art projects: 60% of public art budgets routinely go towards the fabrication and installation of an artwork; 20% towards the artist's authorship. Examples of people who work on fabrication and installation are plumbers, electricians, welders, carpenters, general contractors, plus workers with expertise with tile and concrete. Essentially, this insures that artists get paid to think and to build on a large scale, engaging the eyes, ears, and interest of all citizens.

Indiana government spends too much time on issues that really don't matter to most working people. Instead of targeting Woman, Gays, Workers and Immigrants and crafting liberal gun laws, we need our leaders to focus on Education, Jobs, Healthcare and Roads. Indiana's biggest problem is the "brain drain". It effects my business when young people leave for more progressive states.

Children, born outside the United States, now ages five through age twelve, brought into this country illegally by their parents should be granted immediate United States citizenship if they have lived here for at least five continuous years. They should not be punished for a crime they did not commit or could not prevent. Currently all children born in the United States, even if their parents are illegal immigrants, are according to the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution American citizens from their birth. Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. Unfortunately, those children brought into the country after birth are penalized by their parents illegal immigrant status. The Eighth Amendment to the Constitution does not allow cruel and unusual punishments. Punishing children for the crimes of their parents is a cruel and unusual punishment and therefore, is not allowed by our Constitution. Being born here, even if their parents are criminals, does not deny a child their right to United States citizenship. Therefore, since children have no way to prevent their parents from committing an illegal act they should not be held accountable and punished for such acts. They should be afforded the same documentation and recognized status as citizens under our Constitution, even though they were not born here, as those children born in the U.S. of illegal immigrants.

Banning assault weapons might not solve the killing but it would sure put a dent into the mass killings that are happening across the country. We should also tax bullets a lot more.

I have not been personally affected by the dropping of Head Start from Attleboro, but no one is speaking for the Attleboro residents who would benefit from Head Start. Please pay attention to providing a proven program for children in a community that has many English Language Learners and many families living in poverty.

It was shocking to me to learn that physical, violent and potentially injurious methods are still being used on our children in public schools. In order to prevent your child from being spanked, you have to submit a letter to the school specifying NOT to spank your child.

As it stands today, electoral votes are what puts the president in office. So every vote of the the people of the United States of America is just entertainment. The president should not need 270 people voting for him to make it to office. He should need millions of votes. Votes from people who eat, breath, and live through the decisions and actions the president makes and takes. 538 people should not be making decisions for 314 million. Please sign this petition, let's give the people of America the most powerful voices on election day.
