Lowering the payroll taxes boost the economy in several ways: 1). The holiday payroll tax puts more money into the pockets of virtually all Americans. For lower and middle class families that means paying for slightly higher produced goods and services while they still have money to save. 2).For the households constrained by excessive borrowing in the turbulent years, it means quicker repayment of debts and a faster return to normalcy for their families. 3).Finally, for employers considering extension, it also means slightly higher real wages for workers at no higher cost to the employer. That means at the gross margin it makes more sense to hire and boost productivity through staffing. And extending the payroll holiday tax is a very important issue for lower and middle income families. Over the course of one year, the average American family will keep approximately $1,200.00 rather paying the sum out in taxes. Businesses will receive tax credits for creating and hiring new positions. Extending the payroll holiday tax is a win-win situation for lower and middle class families along with small businesses.

Paid for benefits aren't entitlements and don't effect our deficit.

President Obama has been the target of more disrespectful public acts than any president in recent history. Examples include the "birther" fabrication and the flaunting of racist signs at rallies.

SB 1080 prevents some 15,000 undocumented immigrant drivers on Oregon roads from being tested for knowledge of driving laws and for physical impairments to safe driving.

Stop separating the families, I am facing deportation for something that I already paid for. I served 18 months of incarceration. I am a single parent of two daughters and grandfather of a 2 year old boy, and I am the only support and provider for them. My older daughter is in college and she is a single mother, my youngest is still in high school. During my incarceration I started taking classes in college; when I finished my time I continued my studies and in 2006 I graduated as an architect and have worked since then as an architect and as a good citizen. But also I have done everything that is possible to stop my deportation and the separation of my family and the separation of any other family.

Grant Co DHS took my two children based on false, unverified allegations, and admitted they did not perform an investigation, competent or otherwise. While my children were in their custody, I was coerced into actions against my will by threats from the case worker that I would never get my children back if I didn't. My son was assaulted and exposed to acts that would have brought criminal charges against me if it ocurred in my home. My disabled daughter continues to have nightmares of when she almost drowned. I have learned of two other families with similiar, recent abuses by this department

Hemp should be a cash crop for paper, cloth, livestock feed and bio-deisel, among other products. Regulation of marijuana should be decided at the State level. Decriminalizing both crops will spur economic growth, reduce crowding in jails, and save taxpayers billions in incarceration costs - a win-win-win situation nationwide. It's time to end the dissonance between federal and state laws.

Food Labeling - Healthcare Crisis We demand honest, all-inclusive labeling of all food products and their ingredients. It is a basic consumer right to know what we are buying without deceptive wording or packaging. Natural doesn't mean organic. We have a right to know if genetically engineered or modified ingredients are in anything we purchase.

I would like to petition that congress will have to fall into a job that offers no retirement.
