Please stop the killing of 1,800 whales and dolphins and the deafening of 15,900 more by ceasing the operation of the Navy's underwater sound system in the Hawaiian Islands, the California and Atlantic Coasts, and the Gulf of Mexico.

Health insurance too expensive for self employed people. I have successful grown children that are self employed, but can't afford health insurance because its cost over $1,000 a month!!

Stop the use of high-frequency underwater sound for testing that will hurt whales and dolphins and kill 1,800 more

The i-word is dehumanizing, racially charged and masquerades as legal terminology, which it is not. There are terms like “unauthorized” and “undocumented,” and other precise, rational descriptions that can be used. The i-word denies people due process and is incompatible with ethical, professional journalistic standards. The i-word inflames anti-immigrant rhetoric, which morphs into anti-Latino sentiment. By dropping the i-word, newspapers can stop fueling hate and prejudice toward members of its own community.

Harmless Pot Crimes fill our prisons, while Destructive Sex Offenders fill our neighborhoods. A SO's must simply register, while a pot smoker faces 10-25years for his/her first Federal offence. Women are currently the fastest growing prison population (3 out of 5 have children) Drug use is a treatable medical issue not a criminal one, where as, sex offences are an untreatable and incurable criminal issue, not a medical one. Raise the Cry of, "Let My People Go and Lock Those Suckers Up"

Surviving spouses, especially widows, have been denied funds accumulated by their spouses during their working lives simply because they were too young. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, a widow is, "a woman who has lost her husband to death and has not married again." Disabled widows are especially at a disadvantage because they no longer have the funds to make ends meet.

MR. PERRY DOESN'T BELIEVE TEXANS ARE AMERICANS "FIRST". HE REPRESENTS THE TEXAS WEALTHY 1%, AND PUTS "HIS" RELIGIOUS & PERSONAL VALUES INTO LAWS THAT ARE DETRIMENTAL TO THE FREEDOMS AND BEST INTEREST OF "ALL" TEXANS.

California prisons are full. Many are mentally ill people. Turn a few prisons into places to keep the mentally ill prisoners in and move the real criminals into the cells vacated by them. Exchange the jobs of prison guards for medical personnel. It would be cheaper and and more sane.

20% Pay cut for the President, Congress and House of Representatives effective Immediate. No more travel perks and pay 25% of their own medical! Both sides are guilty of playing politics with the economy and citizens of the United States!

Financial fraud, manipulation and malfeasance has become the standard operating procedure of the industry. A recent industry survey showed that more than 33% admitted that they have and will commit fraud to generate their personal income. As regulations get more complex, the regulators, SEC, CTFC, Fed simply cannot keep up with the gaming of the regulations by industry participants. I and many others have lost thousands with MFC Global and now Peregrine. Not a single banker or broker or executive has gone to jail. The industry simply pays a fine, that in comparison to their profits is minimal. It is time for real penalties to stop this fraud.

Today, I went to Team USA, to "like" it, and make a donation. How supprised I was to find the letters, BP not only was in the title, but was the first name in the title. I actually appreciate this corp for supporting our team and thank BP and all contributors, BUT to "name" our team BP is a travisty. A. This is a British corp, and B. this corp. caused the greatest menmade disaster t

The number of tornadoes are increasing every year and hiding in the tub or standing in a inner door way should no longer be the solution by FEMA. Now basements can be built in Texas - everyone should be told it is not only possible but energy efficient to do so.
