Target employees get a 10% discount but only if they pay with cash, check, or a Target Red Card. Up till recently employees could also use their discount with their food stamp benefits. Many Target retail employees are below the poverty line and get food stamp benefits. It is simply unfair to charge the poorest employees more, than those employees who can actually afford to buy food with a redcard, or cash.

If Gov Gary Herbert signs HB 363 into law Utah schools will not be able to teach or discuss the following issues. Human sexuality instruction or instructional programs may not include instruction in, or the advocacy of: the intricacies of intercourse, sexual stimulation, or erotic behavior; homosexuality; the use of contraceptive methods or devices; or sexual activity outside of marriage.

Although my experience is with the Los Angeles Unified School District, districts all over the country are laying off teachers, nurses, and other school site staff not because there are real budget cuts but because superintendents play footsie with for-profit schools in order to make money off of public education for themselves, which violates the very idea of public education. For-profit schools don't abide by the collective bargaining contracts that public school teachers and other school site staff enjoy, including medical benefits. Teachers, nurses, janitors provide the environment that educate American youth. No of us living would be able to live life without the education provided by teachers and the environments maintained by other school site staff. In California, AB 114 was passed to provide additional funding for all California public schools at the 2009-2010 Schoo Year levels, bringing additional funds to reinstate all staff that had been laid off last year but many districts, especially LAUSD, are withholding that money for rehiring laid off staff. This is unconscionable while many new for-profit charter schools are being created by public school districts paying teachers and other staff the minimum salaries possible.

Debbie Peagler was wrongfully incarcerated for more than 3 decades, she slotted to die alone and among the forgotten. The lack of understanding of the traumatic effects of battering and the Battered Woman Syndrome Defense, and she was denied the benefits of The No Stalking Law by Judges, Prosecutors, and Defense Attorneys cause her to receive life in prison. Family Law denied her the right to protect her daughter from molestation. The Documentary of her life story won the Golden Globe Award! Tell the First Lady & First Grandmother to Take Action to End this Injustice1

The Mortgage Loan Crisis, which led to the current financial crisis and recession, has lead to a Foreclosure Crisis in the County of Santa Barbara. Foreclosure sales and evictions have occurred, and are continuing to occur, that are clearly irregular and illegal. People are losing their homes without due process of law. On March 12th, Occupy Santa Barbara, along with Occupy groups from across California, simultaneously rallied at county recorder offices across the State to call attention to the massive and ongoing foreclosure fraud. This petition was presented to 3 County officials (the Recorder, DA, and Sherriff) on the 12th and will be presented to the Board of Supervisors on April 3rd. You can find more info about the event and the full text of the petition at http://occupysb.org/foreclosures/.

Landlords in the City of Lewiston are facing greater difficulty maintaining quality housing amidst the current economic climate. As a City with the highest poverty rates in two of the most densely populated census tracts, the rental market is unable to respond to increases in operating expenses by spreading costs amongst tenants who have limited ability to pay. Landlords are asking the City of Lewiston to remove the trash collection fees that were formerly included as a benefit of being a tax payer.

Trayvon Martin (17 years old) was walking home from the store in a gated Stanford, FL community with a pack of skittles and a drink when he was labeled as "suspicious" and shot and KILLED by an armed neighborhood watch guard. Despite the fact that Trayvon was completely unarmed, George Zimmerman (a white man) believed the young black teen to be dangerous and even AFTER being told by police to "stand down" he took it in his own hands and shot the young boy in cold blooded murder. We're calling on you, America, to stand up for justice and demand that Zimmerman be charged with his crimes! Please sign the petition and pass it on to all of your family and friends! Let's stand together and show that this is NOT acceptable in ANY community! http://news.yahoo.com/family-florida-boy-killed-neighborhood-watch-seeks-arrest-044537742.html
