support Glenda Ritz in her programs.Not in support of the voucher system, it will take away the best teachers, and public schools will not have the drive to move ahead

I am discussed with the continued miss use of good legislation to sneak in totally unrelated legislation to support special interests of one politician. This costs us, the tax payers, millions if not billions. If it is good legislations, let it stand alone. THIS MUST STOP.

I will be affected if the President is Not able to save social Security and Medicare

PETITION TO GOV. DEVAL PATRICK: We need someone who is "fired up and ready to go" -- especially in monetary policy and fisheries development. Barney Frank is that person. Please appoint him as our interim senator.

I am a student at North Murray High School in Murray county Georgia. The concerning issue at hand is that bullying should be against the law. In the past few years in georgia alone there have been a lot of deaths because of bullying. Cyber bullying, Verbal bullying, Physical bullying pretty much all kinds of bullying.There is not a determined deadline for this petition yet so please sign it now. Bullying should NOT be tolerated any longer!!

One of the Charlotte Airport Crew rooms (C) that had ample rest areas for flight crew is under construction. The other crew room that has now doubled in size (B) is less than half the size of (C), and has nowhere for us to rest other than a few upright uncomfortable chairs. Many flight crew have to commute to base as much as 12 hours before they begin their flying, and this includes pilots. Not having a proper rest area is unsafe for everyone, including our customers. We need an appropriate rest area!

I always wanted to buy land in northern "pure" Michigan to start a small farm. As I began to look closer I found that northern Michigan is full of oil and gas drilling sites many of which are fracking. I have come to know that fracking creates immense waste water as a byproduct which is pumped back deep into the ground where no one can see it. This waste water contains toxic chemicals many of which the industry refuses to disclose, and they are putting it into our water tables. Stop this environmental catastrophe before its too late.

I became disabled while I was in school. I attended a total of 3 months of school. And now owe $12,000.00 in student loans. I have tried to get my student loan forgiven to no avail. At one point I thought I had succeded, but years later recieved a pay or else from a collection agency.

After a fall in her own home, my 95 year old mother spent two months in a nursing home before we discovered that assisted living options were open to her, providing a much more productive, cheerier atmosphere at a savings of over $1000 a month. However, when her money runs out she will be forced to move to more expensive care in a nursing home as Medicaid only pays for nursing home care.

Yes! Some thing is very wrong when the employee have more health benefits than their employers. This make them not care what they cut from Medicare. I got charged for test to get eye glasses because told it was cut from Medicare by you know who? We the people should have equal rights. Middle income if we can not get our state Medicare or what ever supplement our states offer we have to pay out of our pockets. Each year Medicare offer less and we are paying more so the raise is wiped out.

My partner, Aaron Swartz, faced 35 years behind bars for allegedly using an alias to download too many academic articles. Last week, after nearly two years of prosecutorial harassment, Aaron made the tragic decision to end his life. He was 26. The law treated Aaron like a terrorist, but everyone else knew a different Aaron, the real Aaron; he was an innovator, entrepreneur and social justice advocate who co-authored RSS 1.0 at age 14, co-founded Reddit and led the fight to stop SOPA and PIPA -- the bills that attempted to privatized the internet. Legislators are introducing "Aaron's Law" to decriminalize the Internet and prevent this tragedy from ever happening again. We must make sure Aaron's Law passes. -Taren Stinebrickner-Kauffman
