No Funding Left BehindThe wave of charter, online, and private schools formed in the past several years have created a common scenario where these schools are allowed to take tax dollars from the public schools. While these schools have the lawful right to exist, they also have the luxury of taking only the students that do not create a behavioral or educational problem for the staff or other students. When a student is forced to leave these schools, the money should not be allowed to stay, but should then follow the student due to the fact that the (Charter/Online/Private) school usually keeps these children on their rolls until after the count time.14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Earl R.

Political Jobs Should Have The Same Benefits As Regular Jobs.I feel ALL politicians should be should be held to the same standards as anyone holding a regular job. If or when you leave a regular job you do NOT get to keep any benefits from that job so why should our government officials get to keep their benefits.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by David Schmitt

Save the Goshute Tribes Water from Vegas!The Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA) wants to tap into the groundwater held sacred by the Goshute tribe that sustains their existence. The purpose? To provide for future development of the Vegas Strip. The plan would be to pump billions of gallons which could potentially drain the aquifer under their reservation. Such would turn their already diminished lands into a veritable desert. Though government officials claim these beliefs unfounded, hydrologist Tom Meyers admits that pumping may have a quicker impact than expected. The proposed pumping would include 5 valleys along the Utah-Nevada border, all of which are connected. While effects are expected to be felt in the far distant future (200 yrs) it is believed that too little research has been conducted to substantiate such claims. The reality is that no one knows what effects pumping the aquifer will have, but losing only a few feet of groundwater could devastate the regions inhabitants, wildlife and environment. If the shrinking Colorado River wasn't enough for the Vegas tourism industry, neither will be the Goshute's sacred groundwater. It's time to stand up for what's right and stop frivolous water expenditures.10 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Chrissy Adams

Federal Deficit Reduction.Some media advertizers blame President Obama for increasing the deficit. The executive office can only approve budget financial changes initiated from Congress. Americans need to force congressmen to submit all financial proposals to an vote for the citizens to approve. With computer access we can have a process where this will be an issue on Yea or Nay for all Americans to decide. Then congress can see what we want and not just lobbyist views. Making our voices heard will be in part for our direct benefits instead for how we are ignored today. Since the congress tends to favor the pay they receive for their partizenship proposal decisions.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Michele Kotula
