1/ Constituional Carry: Purcell is asleep at the wheel on this or she has her own agenda which is not the same agenda of the majority of Georgia citizens. Whoever gets the credit for this one could run for governor of Georgia and win by a landslide. Those who oppose it couldnt get elected to dog catcher! 2/ Stop the theiving Clerks of Court from making an additional $100,000.00 per year by stealing the citizens' money from the passports. There are less than a half dozen who think that using our employees to do all the work, having us pay them, and then the Clerks pocket all the money IS CRIMINAL. FIX THIS LOOPHOLE!!!

NJ desperately needs a second tunnel into NYC. The one tunnel we have gets backed up when a train breaks down, and backs up all the trains behind it for hours. This gets people who live in NJ hours late for work in NYC. Or hours late in getting home. Sometimes it is shut down for an entire day. Also, if we had a second tunnel, more trains can run between NJ and NYC which would decrease the significant overcrowding on the peak trains people take to get to work. Sometimes the trains get so overcrowded, people cannot even get on the train. We're calling on President Obama, the Senators, and the House of Representatives to use federal funds to make this infrastructure project of building a second tunnel between NJ and NYC happen! We also call upon Governor Christie, the NJ House, and the NJ Senate to help fund this extremely needed project of a second tunnel into NYC. As a bonus, jobs would get created and put a lot of people to work.

This law would expand Florida's current civil rights laws in employment and public accomodations and benefits to include sexual orientation and gender identity. Furthermore the law would incorporate harassment based on sexual orientation or gender identity as a form of harassment on par with sexual and racial harassment.

too many nonviolent drug users are sitting in prison and their lives ruined because they suffer an addiction. end it now.

We need to give support and funding to our schools in Arizona. Every year the schools are scrambling around trying to figure out where they can cut costs, what teachers and support personnel they can lay off, and what schools to close. We have to put money where our mouths are. The children are our future and need to be our first priority.

Oregon will soon be making some enormous changes to our educational system. These changes are coming at us fast. But guess what? Most of the people responsible for these changes are not educators--they are politicians, CEOs, and administrators. We need professional educators at the helm of this ship, not people outside the profession. Please help us to make this happen. Scott Dionne

It's critical to the state of Wisconsin to re-unite the state as a whole

Senate Bill 3 would provide money for school meals to hungry children. The School Meals Bill has been stalled in the House Finance Committee for four years. "The Seward Phonenix Log columnist named Elstun Lauesen discovered the source of this moral irrationality, i.e. $8.2 billion in tax breaks for oil companies. It is called House Bill 110 and it is currently being fought by Senate Bill Wielechowski. Wielechowski is the sponsor for the School Meals Bill. Since he will not allow oil companies to receive billions in tax breaks without accountability, the House Finance Committee is “resolved” not to schedule any Bills, especially those sponsored by Wielechowski." http://kokayi137.wordpress.com/2012/01/26/the-juneau-hunger-strike/ Please ask Alaska legislators to get this bill to a vote.

Oregon will soon be making some enormous changes to our educational system. These changes are coming at us fast. But guess what? Most of the people responsible for these changes are NOT educator--they are politicians, CEOs, and administrators. We need change agents who are professional educators to oversee these changes. Help us to make this happen.

The Utah Legislature is attempting to force moral views into the school system to the detriment of children and public health by passing a law that would ban the talk of contraceptives in health and sex education classes, or allow schools to skip sex education all together. Current state law requires teaching abstinence-only programs and educators are not allowed to advocate the use of contraception. Gov. Herbert must be told that we owe our children more than an unrealistic ideal: we owe them an education, and the knowledge that will help them protect themselves.

It is time to launch a citizen's right to use his or her money for the good of the children in his or her community. It is time to make it law that any parent, regardless of income, gender, race, religious affiliation, or status in life should have the right to use his or her share of his school district's per child funding, or ideally state funding, in the form of a voucher that would permit him or her to send their child to the school of their choice, so long as the money is earmarked for teaching of non-religious subjects in that school of choice. It should not matter if the school is itself religiously affiliated, as long as it meets state and district standards of pedagogy for subjects like mathematics, reading, grammar, writing, spelling, geography, history and the social sciences, and no public money is used to fund the teaching of religion. It is hypocritical to limit at the K-12 level what we do not limit at the post-secondary level. We permit PHEAA and federal grants to be used at private and religious affiliated post-secondary schools. Take as an example schools like Catholic Villanova and St. Joseph's University, or private University of Pennsylvania or Dusquesne, etc. We never limit the use of public funds to just the neighborhood community college, for example. We sponsor our children's effort to achieve the best. If we are willing to adequately fund our children and expand their choices once they graduate from high school, should we not also maximize their choices in getting into high school and college in the first place? Vouchers should, by law, be available to every child in the Commonwealth. FInally, we should stop segregating children by school based upon how much housing their parents can afford. All state funding is needed, not local funding, as the major source of school funding. Adjustments can be made that adjust funding per student based on real-evidence of cost regionally, but otherwise funding should be evenly distributed. This may require all districts to pool their resources, or a legistaltively derermined portion of their resources, in a state pool, to be re-distributed per child. Provisions to reimburse home-schoolers for approved and verifiable costs will be determined by the Legislature.

I would like to see a law passed to prevent lobbyists in Washington, DC. It has destroyed our political democracy. Our elected officials can be bribed.
