The student body feels that the punishment of these two men was too harsh.

The Texas School Board of Education recently voted to eliminate historical figures Helen Keller and Hillary Clinton from the required history curriculum.. In reality, it could be erasing contributions groundbreaking women have had in our nation. In addition to her many years of public service, Clinton was the first woman to be the nominee for President of a major political party. That is important history. And Hellen Keller was the first deaf-blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree and was a pioneer in the disability rights movement. USA Today reports the Republican-dominated board's decision could affect over 5 million public school students. I hope others here with me in Texas and all concerned individuals from across the nation will sign and share this petition.

On September 16, Christine Blasey Ford came forward publicly about her experience of being sexually assaulted by Brett Kavanaugh, Trump’s Supreme Court nominee. Thanks to her bravery, we now know that Kavanaugh, in addition to being a political danger to women, is a sexual predator. Ford’s story is horrifying. During a party in high school, she described how Kavanaugh pinned her to a bed, tried to pull off her clothing, and covered her mouth as she tried to scream. Kavanaugh's nomination was already on the rocks before Ford came forward with her story. But now, the outcry over Ford's allegations is putting pressure on every senator to come out against Kavanaugh. In just 24 hours following the release of Ford's story, Republican Senators Jeff Flake and Bob Corker have joined Democrats in calling for Kavanaugh's nomination to be delayed and a hearing is planned for Monday. We believe survivors and we believe Christine Blasey Ford. We have all the information we need to know Kavanaugh should not be a Supreme Court Justice. If every Democrat and just a few Republicans come out against Kavanaugh's nomination, we have a real chance to stop this man from a lifetime nomination to the Supreme Court. Send the Senate a clear message: Brett Kavanaugh has no place on the Supreme Court of the United States.

Professor Christine Blasey Ford’s sexual assault allegations against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh cannot be taken lightly. The rush to confirm Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court must cease until these deeply disturbing allegations are addressed by the Senate Judiciary Committee and by the nominee. Like all survivors, Professor Ford deserves to be heard and treated fairly and respectfully. The abuse she detailed must not be ignored and belittled to jam through a Supreme Court nominee. These allegations come on top of a nomination process already clouded with uncertainty. Millions of pages of Kavanaugh's relevant records have been withheld from the American public. And allowing a President who is under investigation to appoint a Supreme Court Justice who might hear a case related to that investigation would compromise the integrity of the Supreme Court. There is too much at stake to rush this process. The American people deserve to know the full truth about any nominee for a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court -- and putting the brakes on Kavanaugh’s proceedings until we have all the facts is non-negotiable.

I was the federal court appointed CEO of eToys.com; which was stolen by Bain Capital and made a part of Toys R Us. On March 22, 2017, I sued Trump to block Jay Clayton for SEC and inform him about crooked US Attorney Colm Connolly. The D.C. Clerk of Court refused to docket my case (HAAS v. TRUMO) until 3 weeks after (May 24th) Jay Clayton was confirmed. Then Trump nominated Colm Connolly for Delaware Federal Court. Mitt Romney is being protected by Trump - Obstructively - to protect Goldman Sachs from indictment. There are many laws against this, including RICO; but no one with the guts enough to take on Romney & Goldman Sachs. America needs thus investigation.

The shocking stories of inmates who have spent time at Hope Village reveal that the staff there is actively trying to discourage the inmates and prevent them from getting and keeping jobs.

On 17 September 1851, the Fort Laramie Treaty was signed between United States treaty commissioners and representatives of the Cheyenne, Sioux, Arapaho, Crow, Assiniboine, Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara Nations. The United States acknowledged that all the land covered by the treaty was Indian Territory, however... BEFORE THE INK WAS DRY, THE TREATY WAS BROKEN. In the century that followed, over 500 treaties made with Native Nations were also broken — which has degraded the lives of Indigenous Peoples and the environmental health of Mother Earth. Honoring Native Peoples treaty rights protects us all from environmental genocide. Native Children's Survival challenges the United States and its Congress to #RightTheWrong and honor, with negotiations, at least one of the more than 500 broken treaties made with Native Nations - starting with the 1851 Fort Laramie Treaty.

Troubling content in Kavanaugh's high school yearbook further reflects out-of-control drinking, partying, and disrespect of women. Julie Swetnick says she was drugged and raped at a party where Brett Kavanaugh and his friend Mark Judge were present. Other times, she witnessed the two engaging in harassing and threatening behavior toward young women. Deborah Ramirez also says Kavanaugh exposed himself to her in college and made forced sexual contact. I am personally haunted by the way Anita Hill was treated and my lack of action to support her. We stand in support of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, Deborah Ramirez, and Julie Swetnick. Their allegations deserve a respectful audience and response from the Senate. We believe them.

When it comes to voting, partisan politics should not matter. FIU students and faculty should be able to vote at a convenient location on campus. Other universities across the state will have early voting on their campuses, but FIU has been left out. We are asking Mayor Gimenez, Miami-Dade election officials, and FIU to work together to let our FIU community vote on campus.

My country, Puerto Rico, is been governed by an anti-democratic Federal Oversight Management Board, imposed by the Federal Government, which is taking our people to a deeper economic depression due to their insane political measures. We need to abolish this law and the Board asap or otherwise our people will face the worst human catastrophe ever, including massive migration to the US states, which will put bigger burdens over their governmental services. As a retired Full Professor of the University of Puerto Rico, all of us are facing the obligatory reduction of our pensions. This will make us live under the poverty level of the US.

Richmond Indiana needs complete and safe sidewalks before we need a bicycle loop.

There is no purpose, and I really hate the fact that FEMA is doing this. Not Their Job
