While on an outing shopping when entering into the store from any angle, it doesn't matter what store walking into employees are smoking outside not to far from the front door. People shop with their children let alone they have health issues and cannot breathe sometimes. No one needs to smell the smoke. It's not just stores but it's also bus stops it needs to stop. I would prefer if I could breathe and also not have the smell of smoke set in my clothes. Please make this a mandatory law. That it cannot be done anywhere in front of a business or bus stop. Thank you for your time.

The Congress, The Senate, The House of Representitives and all highly paid officials being paid by the United States Tax Payers, should reduce their Wages and benefits and share the pain They , help cause, The American People all the way up to the President of the United States.

Ethanol added to gasoline causes a whole host of problems for automobiles and other machinery. Now the Federal Government is poised to increase the amount of ethanol in fuel and that could potentially cause an engine failure in your vehicle. This has to stop!

We will all be personally affected if CONGRESS cannot get their act together and reach a deal to prevent the fiscal cliff. I am pushing for CONGRESS to stay in session, ie no holiday break until they reach a deal.

Allowing the churches & religious organizations to be exempt from taxation hurts everyone!

We need for our representatives to drop the Norquist anti-tax pledge and allow the Bush tax cuts for the top 2% to come to an end. Norquist is not relevant to our Congress as it now stands. The Republicans need to understand they were overwhelmingly defeated in this last election because they either don't understand or are not part of middle class America.

Getting rid of professional lobbyist. All money given to politicians by lobbyist should be against the law. Only individuals should be able to contact their representatives.

Corporations in our country don't pay taxes! When was the last time the government increased their taxes? When will our government stop the tax loopholes, subsidies, and welfare for big business? It affects us all personally! We as individuals pay more in taxes as a result!

The U.S. Navy at Naval Air Station Whidbey Island in Oak Harbor, North Whidbey, is updating its aircraft to the monstrous F-18 Growlers. SHOCK AND AWE is an understatement when one flies overhead. We are trying to stop military carrier landing exercises on a small WW II emergency landing airstrip located south of Coupeville, Central Whidbey, within The Ebey's Landing National Historical Reserve, a National Park.

This proposition is a plea to have the old Proposition 13 tax law overhauled in several ways. Firstly, it is completely insidious that corporations such as Google pay property tax rates based on this law, while accumulating millions of dollars in profits at the expense of California school systems and protection services from the police and fire departments. Secondly, it is completely unfair that new homeowners have to pay taxes based upon this law for extremely high priced homes, when their neighbors have willed their properties to their children who then receive the benefit of this law, when it was originally supposed to be for people who would live in their home until death so they could afford to keep their homes. This is unfair to younger families who are then forced to pay an unrealistic tax rate to pay for the deficiencies in tax revenue. My son and daughter in law live in Los Altos California and the price of homes is around $700.000 to a million dollars. This tax law prevents them from being able to buy a home with the addition of a tax that adds thousands of dollars more to a home while the people living across the street pay taxes based on a home purchased for $22,000.00 paying practically nothing in yearly property taxes. This is happening all over the state of California. Mr. Jarvis has been deceased for many years, the law is out of date for the current economic situation of our state and country. The most glaring inequity being the amount that large corporations pay for their multimillion, billion dollar businesses. Please help us bring this issue to the forefront of reformation in our state for the good of education and protection services, not to mention the affordability of homes for young families. My name is Jean Nielson. I was an educator for twenty years. I know the crisis in education and it is destroying our college system, as well as the K-12 system. I am working after retirement because I still care for children and the welfare of our future. Help Californians realize the damage of this proposition. Please sign my petition so we can limit corporate wealth and help the citizens of our state. Sincerely, Jean Nielson MA Education
