There is a huge push against yoga studios as a source of taxation and funding at both the city and state level. An increasing number of studios are facing legal investigation for violating these new and poorly understood government regulations.This has meant burdensome lawyers fees, penalties, back-tax bills and other administrative costs which are threatening the vitality of many studios in our city. We are calling upon our local officials to not impose this service tax and to stop all audits demanding years of back taxes.

The California state legislature has repeatedly passed bills to create healthcare for everyone, a single-payer healthcare system that would give everyone in the state care, regardless of their ability to pay. Consecutive governors have vetoed these bills, and Jerry Brown has vowed to do the same.

Getting Moveon.org to have to answer for the lies and attacks on the conservative citizens in America.

"Grant’s Bills,” SB 423 and SB 424, would end the use of gas chamber euthanasia by shelters and Class B dealers in Michigan. Animals take a long time to die in gas chambers and suffer greatly.

everyone; prisoners serve time, only to be then falsely imprisoned, because the CEO's are there to make money for their shareholders. Letting prisoners go, after they have served time, loses money for shareholders

A young black man had to die because he dared to ask why to a Hispanic who perpetrates himself as a white wannabee cop. He wasn't prosecuted because he did the police a favor. Lack of an iniitial investigation and the slowness of a pending one is just a ploy to start a full scale race riot. Anything to mar the fact that US now has a black President.

PWSD is poised to lose teachers, afterschool club funding and PEP. This cannot happen. We parents appeal to the Port Washington Board of Education to stop these budget cuts and stand for students and education. We ask that Jon Kaiman, Jack Martins, Dina DiGiorgio stand together against these budget cuts.

HB 2036 bans abortions after 20 weeks, well actually 18 weeks becuase the bill states that the gestational age of the fetus should be "calculated from the first day of the last menstrual period of the pregnant woman" (2 weeks before the egg and sperm actually meet up). Additionally, under this law, if a doctor performs an abortion after that 18-weeks, he or she can be charged with a crime, have his or her license revoked or suspended, and can be held liable for civil penalties if the father of the fetus decides to pursue legal action. The bill also requires a mandatory ultrasound for anyone seeking an abortion at any stage of pregnancy (hello, transvaginal probes) and mandates that a doctor offer to show a pregnant woman the ultrasound, describe it to her verbally and provide her with a photo of "the unborn child." It would also require a woman to wait 24 hours after the ultrasound before she can obtain an abortion. This bill has already passed the Arizona Senate. We need to let the Arizona House and Gov. Jan Brewer know that the people oppose this bill.

The end of seniority based layoffs; let teacher evaluations determine.

Let's leave religion and politics as separate issues. We do NOT all have the same religious beliefs. Leave planned parenthood alone. Women should be able to seek health care where they want. If it is a Catholic hospital then they should have the right not to be forced to do things that violate their beliefs. We will remember
