In the 2012 election more secret money poured into California election ads from out of state than you can imagine. Corporate money tried to influence our elections and silence the people of California! SB 52 has already passed the assembly but not in time to get to the State Senate. It will make it the law to identify the funders of ads for or against election issues, thus, helping the voters become more informed before they cast their ballots on candidates or ballot measures. Make your voice heard and support SB 52 the CA Disclose Act.

I see too many people in the convenience store buying lottery tickets who obviously can't afford it.

A third of our U.S. tax dollars went to the military in FY2011. We spend more on the military than the next 14 nations. Don't cut Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, education, access to parks, transportation and food safety, care of our earth. Cut military spending.

We need your help to change an outdated Administrative Code and general statues 20-125(b) that places police officers and the general public in grave danger, by not allowing them to properly respond to a life safety hazard. Currently company police officers (sworn law enforcement officers) are the only branch of law enforcement within North Carolina that cannot respond “Emergency (lights and sirens)” to an incident or officer in distress if the officer is located even one block outside their jurisdiction. Six (6) police officers died in North Carolina alone last year from line of duty deaths; please help us avoid the next tragedy.

The Measures of Academic Progress (MAP®) test is unnecessary, unreliable, and costly. It is time for the Seattle School District to reevaluate its priorities, cancel MAP®, and restore precious class time and resources to our children.

Wisconsin is one of the many states that allows foie gras to be sold and bought in restaurant establishments, this cruel product has no use in our restaurants. Foie gras is made through a process of having a large metal pole being shoved down a helpless duck's neck. The ducks are often confined in cages and can't move. They are unable to fight back when they are being force fed, the sale of foie gras for human consumption violates the Poultry Products Inspection Act (PPIA) which states that they prohibit diseased, or "manipulated" meat from entering the food supply.

My monthly water dept. bill is huge and I live in a home with only two people. This is distressing but I am worried that the over-population and over-building in California will create even more water shortages, especially in draught years, which are inevitable. It doesn't seem right to be in denial that there is no way to create more water which agriculture and cities depend upon.

Please help get a National Beirut Memorial in Washington, DC. Our first duty is to REMEMBER!
