  • 6 month rule leaves too many people uninsured
    An individual with a pre-existing medical condition can now get health insurance from the new state or federal pre-existing condition insurance plans but only if he has been uninsured for at least the last 6 months before applying. The 6 month rule is prohibiting too many Americans from purchasing this very affordable health insurance. Unemployed workers who just lost their COBRA coverage need this new insurance plan. Self-employed and part-time individuals who pay the highest insurance premiums need this new insurance plan. But they can't get it unless they take the risk of going without health insurance for 6 months.

  • In-State Control of State Initiatives
    In recent years, individuals, PACs, and corporations based outside of California, state regulations and California Citizens' influences have run and funded initiatives to change the laws and constitution of California. These groups base their initiatives on what is best for their agendas as opposed to what may be better for the actual Citizens of our state. Their money does not go to creating nor expanding employment in California, and often hurts our Citizenry in favor of these outside entities' interests. It should be required that any group, corporation, organization, or individuals who proposes and funds California Initiatives should originate, be duly licensed and operate as California Based.

  • Lamoine Beach Road Safety
    It has been brought to my immediate attention that the public boat landing on Lamoine Beach is not properly marked to identify that the road comes to a very abrupt end and with little warning before transitioning into the ocean. In the past several years there have been more than 3 deaths at this location as well as several nonfatal accidents; simple changes such as adding a stop sign or a sign stating that the road ends may prevent any more such accidents from occurring.

  • BAN CHLORAMINE FROM OUR WATER
    Most of our major cities are putting Chloramine in our drinking water. Chloramine is Ammonia + Chlorine. Hundreds of people are complaining of rashes and other ills as a result of this chemical being added to our water. Mothers who don't know chloramine is in the water are making baby formulars with this chemical. People are "cooking" with chloramine water and taking showers and baths in this chemical as well. Filters may not prevent this chemical from getting in your water. Contact your government officials and make some noise or this will continue to happen.

  • DRIVER'S LICENSE
    In most every state, there are people not eligible for a social security number who are not allowed to obtain a driver's license. Many of them must drive to work, or for some other reason, without a license and without insurance. In case of an accident, they do not have insurance or the funds to pay for the damage caused. To protect all Americans, driver's licenses and insurance must be available to all that apply and, of course, pass the driver's exam.

  • Opting Out of High Stakes Testing
    Overemphasis on Florida state sanctioned standardized testing has resulted in the documented retardation of the intellectual, creative, and social growth of a significant portion of Florida’s K-12 public school student population, has resulted in the discriminatory disenfranchisement of Florida’s minority students, second language students, and its special needs students; and has unfairly maligned Florida’s K-12 public school educators by attaching test scores to pay and job security.

  • Rep (R) Joe Walsh: Denys he failed to pay 9 years of child support totaling $117K
    Not paying child support is not only an immoral offense, it's a crime punishable by jail in all 50 states. Millions of men and women across America have been incarcerated for not providing financial support to their children even though they had little to nothing to give. Hence, professional athletes have been dragged into court, with camera in their faces, in an attempt to embarrass and shame them, for not paying child support. On the other hand, a sworn US House of Representative has not been given the same attention. In fact, his failure to comply with COURT ORDERED Child Support has gone almost unnoticed. According to court papers, Representative (R), Joe Walsh has failed to pay 9 years of support to his ex-wife, Laura Walsh, for the support of their 3 children. Once Mr. Walsh's check had to be garnished. It's reported he owes his ex-spouse and children $117,437.00. Tax payers pay him a salary of $175,000.00 Instead of paying his children what they deserve, Mr. Walsh loaned his own campaign $35,000, then, he repaid himself. Additionally, he paid $20,000.00 to a former campaign worker. He took costly international vacations with two separate girlfriends in leiu of complying with his COURT ORDER. Needless to say, he has become a high income earner. Though he earned income, he neglected his children's need in exchange for a lavash life style of the rich and powerful. Mr. Walsh neglected his obligation for so long that he no longer valued his financial obligation. For example, he obmitted the $117K arrearage from his Disclosure Form that all elected officials are obligated to complete. His omission was an act of blatant evasion. Mr. Walsh's integrity and fitness to serve in Congress should be called in to question. Consider a former staffer had to sue him. And, a second campaign staffer quit because he felt Mr. Walsh's abused his campaign fund. Improper use of campaign funds suppose to be a serious offense. Put all Rep. Walsh's offensives together, you have an elected official unfit to serve this country. Mr. Walsh places a higher standard on the president, government, and citizens. However, he does not place the same high standards on himself. In closing, Rep Walsh has an annual Congressional's salary of $175,000.00 plus medical benefit, asked the Court to sanction Laura Walsh, whom he owes over $117,000.00 in child support. This latest request clearly confirms his arrogant; he is irresponsible, and he is not accountable for his action as well poor judgment. He is unfit to serve the people of Illinois and this country. He should resign! He should not be given a Pass.
