There are many Democrats who would like to attend the convention, but don't intend to give North Carolina their custom after the passing of Amendment One. Don't let the convention be about boycotts and bigots. Move the convention now.

Cutting income taxes, when our state is next to the last in education funding is ludicrous. This is a smoke & mirror trick. Eliminating personal income taxes is only going to increase property taxes, and again it will be the lower income PEOPLE who will suffer the most.

No religious belief should be able to amend the Constitution! The United States was founded on FREEDOM OF RELIGION and quoting scripture that belongs to one religious belief system and allowing that one religion to make amendments opens this country up for all sorts of amendments.

uses unemployment money to subsidize 20% of net new hires for 2 years , making a taxable earner rather than a unemployment benefit user. Also makes USA more competitive to foreign work force. Net cost close to zero while makes jobs.

We passed the National 'Do Not Call' registry. In NY, political calls are exempt from this registry. Add political calls to this registry in New York and Nationwide. Prohibit political calls and robo-calls if you have registered with the National 'Do Not Call' registry.

Scott Thompson has been caught openly lying about his resume, claiming a degree he never had! If any of us 99% who play by the rules would have lied about something so fundamental, we would have been fired on the spot. Why should the rules be different for Scott Thompson?? He needs to be fired by the Yahoo Board - immediately!

IF WE DONT CHANGE OUR LIFE STYLE THEIR WILL BE A HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF UNEMPLOYMENT IN THE USA. KEEP OUR MONEY WORKING FOR US!!!

Adena Springs Ranch wants 13+ million gallons/day of water to irrigate 10,000 acres of pasture to feed 30,000 cows. That’s more water usage than the entire City of Ocala! Right out of the aquifer that feeds iconic Silver Springs that is already suffering a 50% reduction in average flow—this project will reduce it even more. Manure and urine will pollute drinking water supplies and runoff will end up in Silver Springs and the Silver and Ocklawaha Rivers, both designated Outstanding Florida Waterways. In a presentation to the Alachua County commission, Robert Knight, the founder and director of the H.T. Odum Florida Springs Institute, a Gainesville-based nonprofit organization, said the springs that feed into the Santa Fe River, including Poe and Ginnie springs, have drained at much steeper rates than the decrease in rainfall would warrant. That, Knight said, meant the culprit was human pumping. Voice your opposition to the super consumption request and help protect our drinking water, springs and rivers!

Churches are tax exempt as long as they remain politically neutral. That's not happening. Opposition to gay rights, a woman's right to choose, religious plurality; scientific findings relevant to evolution, global warming, and human experience come primarily from churches and religious organizations. As long as they make money teaching and preaching these doctrines, they should be subject to federal and state taxation.

We need to ban Hydo Fracking our land for gasoline using known carcinogens that pollute not just our great lakes, but also drain and poison our many inland lakes. Hydo fracking has already proven in other states to cause serious damage to drinking water, human health, livestock and wildlife, freshwater aquifers, rivers, and air quality.

Gov. John Hickenlooper should call a special session to allow an up or down vote on the Colorado Civil Union Act that Republican House Speaker Frank McNulty refused to allow to come to the floor of the Colorado House of Representatives this session.

Workers at the American Red Cross located in both Michigan and Ohio are being forced to strike over rising concerns about understaffing and cuts in health care benefits, despite $2 billion in revenue from blood donations. Long shifts with short staff and high pressure resulted in over $30 million in FDA fines in recent years. Without a voice at the table, issues regarding blood safety will only get worse. We are calling on Gail McGovern, Executive Director of the American Red Cross, who gets paid over $1 million per year, to stop the agenda to cut the employees out of the collective bargaining process.
