Petition to Stop the Heinous, Egregious Practices of Corrections Corporation of America State sponsored capitalism is fascism. Like the relationship, if you will, between governor Jan Brewer of Arizona and Corrections Corporation of America (CCA). Brewer's recent signing of Senate Bill1070 is and example of racist, classist, fascist immigration legislation passed in xenophobic, corrupt Arizona,. It's an example of closed door corporate kickback, pork barrel public betrayal, i.e. big money shaping constitutional heresy; fascism that favors corporate oligarchy and weakens ordinary citizens in a counterrevolutionary undermining of the democratic foundations of 1776. This petition asks you to confront and stop three abuses: 1) Fascist legislation like Arizona's SB 1070 2) Corporate prisons (including immigrant prisons) which leave devastated lives 3) Stop building the Corrections Corporation Prison in south San Diego County (Otay Mesa) immediately. Why not a hospital/school/college for immigrants and homeless people on the same 400 acre site instead of a prison where human beings are a commodity.Petition to Stop the Heinous, Egregious Practices of Corrections Corporation of America State sponsored capitalism is fascism.

FAU is cutting our core required classes to graduate and blaming it on the Legislative budget cuts. We have tried communicating with President Saunders, Provost Claiborne, and Dean Carter and they have all dismissed our opinons. It is time to become organized and collaborate to save our futures and be able to graduate.

We believe that yellow is the wrong color for Bret and we humbly request that Hill Solomon sign legislation preventing Bret from wearing yellow shirts in the office.

This petition is to ensure that gov deal and all of our congressmen keep their hands off of our hope scholarship. Without college education our children do not have a chance in the future. College is not and should not only be for the wealthy. Keep your paws off of our scholarship program!

When, Sandra Fluke, Georgetown University law student, advocated for full medical coverage, including contraception, the exercise of her rights enraged Rush Limbaugh to the point where he called her names, misrepresented what she said and asked her to make sex tapes for him. Given Mr. Limbaugh's behavior, we ask that you remove his show from the air so that he can no longer spread the contagion of cruelty and anger toward those with whom he disagrees. Do not facilitate the spread of more hate from your radio station.

Additional tax cuts for the rich are being proposed at the same time increases in college tuition, taxes, and other burdens are being proposed for those who can least afford them - the poor and middle class. Please help me remind our government that they exist for all the people, and not just the rich who finance their campaigns.

In Colorado, spending what we do now or less, we can have full health care for everyone, with better outcomes. Coloradans deserves to have affordable, quality health care. Every taxpayer and business needs relief from escalating insurance costs. We need to pay for our health care in a way that is efficient, transparent and accountable to us - the residents of Colorado. We need Colorado money to stay in Colorado and to create Colorado jobs. The Federal health reform legislation won't get us there. Coloradans need to take health reform into our own hands. Vermont is creating a universal, affordable health care system, and Colorado can also if we all work together. We need to tell the governor and legislators that Coloradans need more than incremental improvements. Tell them that we'll help them do what's right: affordable, quality, sustainable health care for all Colorado residents. For more information: HealthCareforAllforLess.org

The Woonsocket School Committee voted NOT to have the Rhode Island State Police conduct an investigation as to the possible misappropriation of funds and criminal conduct that has resulted in a $10,000,000 city deficit over a two year period. We are calling upon the State Police to conduct a full investigation on behalf of the residents of the city of Woonsocket. We are currently aquiring evidence that shows probable cause to be presented along with this petition to the Rhode Island State Police. If you have any factual information that may be of use in our effort or if you would like to sign the petition online you can contact us at [email protected] Some of the evidence is as follows: Audio file that can be heard on Mywoonsocket.com entitled: Audio Clip of Mayor Fontaine & Stacy Busby at Public Meeting with City Council and School Committee Dec. 8, 2011 This audio clip suggests that positions were added to the Woonsocket school system during the fiscal year that were not budgeted for and they were relying on grants to pay for these positions. If the grants did not go through, these new positions fell back on the general operating budget. The cost of the new positions was approximately $2.1 million. The School committee is required to approve any new positions that are added to the school department. It is suggested that this was never done. The following is the draft of the letter that was to be sent to the Superintendent Steven O'Donnel of the Rhode Island State Police if the School Committee had voted yes to call for an investigation. This letter was written by School Committee Member Chris Roberts. March 28, 2012 Colonel Steven G. O’Donnell Superintendent Rhode Island State Police 311 Danielson Pike North Scituate, RI 02857 Colonel O’Donnell: We write to you today as the Superintendent of the Rhode Island State Police requesting you launch an immediate investigation into two very serious issues. No doubt you have heard through the news that the Woonsocket Education Department is in financial turmoil. As we cope with a recently discovered deficit, what is most troubling is questions remain as to whether or not the Woonsocket School Committee was being provided with the full and accurate financial condition of the District, or if important data was being manipulated and/or falsely presented. A quick review of the minutes and audio of official, public meetings lends one to question, and we call upon the full investigative resources of the State Police to assist in making a determination if Rhode Island General Laws have been violated. As you can see below, there is a liability for school officers who engage in misconduct. If there was a misappropriation of Federal, State, and City funds based on ‘false certificates,’ there should be swift and appropriate action as outlined in the law. § 16-38-9 Liability of school officers for misconduct. – Every school officer who shall make any false certificate, or appropriate any public school money to any purpose not authorized by law, or who shall refuse for a reasonable charge to give certified copies of any official paper, or to account for or deliver to his or her successor any accounts, papers, or money in his or her hands, or shall willfully or knowingly refuse to perform any duty of his or her office, or violate any provisions of any law regulating public schools, except where a particular penalty may be prescribed, shall be fined not exceeding five hundred dollars ($500) or be imprisoned not exceeding six (6) months, and shall be liable to an action of the case for damages to be brought by any person injured by this violation. Second, there have been accusations that the contract for employment of a former employee of the District was modified without the consent of the School Committee. The possibility exists that someone changed a page of the contract of employment after having been signed by the then Chairman of the Woonsocket School Committee. This is a truly serious and troubling thought and again, your expertise in investigating these matters is urgently requested. If either or both of these scenarios are true, they represent illegal behavior and a violation of the public trust by appointed school officials. The truth must be discovered, and in the event of any illegal behavior, those responsible must be brought to justice. Your investigative experience and ability to subpoena (if necessary) are tools not at our disposal alone. The Woonsocket School Committee offers its full cooperation on these matters, and looks forward to your immediate involvement. This motion was originally introduced by Anita Mcguire Forcier (School Committee Chair) and supported by Chris Roberts (School Committee Member) which was voted down 3-2.

I think it's about time the Auto and Cell phone industry do something about the use of cell phones and mobile devices while driving. I'm tired of being put in danger so someone can text their girlfriend or check their e-mail. And if you honk at them because they're drifting into your lane, they get mad at you like it's your fault. And as far as emergency personnel is concerned, isn't that why they have two-way radios. Just because someone is a police officer shouldn't give them the right to blatenly abuse the law and talk to their wife or friend on a cell phone while on duty and driving. Banning the use of cell phones in cars will make everyone safer, period.
