The interest rates charged on delinquent property taxes are excessive and a significant cause of homelessness. If circumstances prevent a person from the timely payment of property taxes, the 16% interest rate can put them in a hole from which they can never climb out.

As a blood relative of the great Native American woman Matoaka aka Pocahontas I’m disgusted and offended by President Trump’s continued denigration of her name as a political insult. I believe most people with native blood feel the same. President Trump stop the childish insults of a native woman who had more integrity in her short life than you will ever have.

WE THE PEOPLE MUST DEMAND THAT THIS AMENDMENT BE AMENDED!! The Thirteenth Amendment (Amendment XIII) to the United States Constitution abolished slavery and involuntary servitude, except as punishment for a crime. In Congress, it was passed by the Senate on April 8, 1864, and by the House on January 31, 1865. The amendment was ratified by the required number of states on December 6, 1865. On December 18, 1865, Secretary of State William H. Seward proclaimed its adoption. It was the first of the three Reconstruction Amendments adopted following the American Civil War.

The students organized the March for Our Lives to call on government to enact common sense gun restrictions. They were exercising their First Amendment rights to petition the governement for legislation so students and others are safe. Rick Santorum said they should instead take personal, individual responsibility including enrolling in CPR classes and learning ways to respond to mass shootings and not look to government or others to solve problems. Santorum should be dismissed forever as a CNN commentator and roundly condemned.

CNN needs to stand up for the kids who marched for their lives and CNN needs to stand up for the families who have lost children to gun violence. No one should be allowed on television making children feel that they have not done enough when the adults and elected officials have failed them. CNN is allowing the NRA to undermine the integrity of CNN.

Students attending the University of Idaho, faculty, community members, and alumni demand action in response to an incident in 2013 which recently was publicized. Rob Spear, Director of Athletics, confessed to a clear violation of Title IX guidelines by not reporting a sexual assault charge to the Dean of Students in April of 2013. Rob Spear not only refused due process which allowed the assailant continued exposure to the student body, but misinformed the victim of her options, denying her access to institutions that could provide justice, safety, and vital counseling resources. We as a student body demand better from our leaders. This petition seeks the swift removal of Rob Spear as an employee of the university.

Please join the occupational therapy student-led group "Advocate For OT in Homecare" from Bay Path Unversity in supporting the Medicare Home Health Flexibility Act (S.977 and H.R. 3820) The Medicare Home Health Flexibility Act would specifically allow occupational therapists to open home health therapy cases and conduct the required comprehensive assessments. Occupational therapists are qualified to perform the initial and first comprehensive rehabilitation assessments based on their unique training and perspective, which focus on a person’s functional capabilities. Not allowing occupational therapists to open health therapy cases, causes unneeded barriers to providing patients with effective, timely, and appropriate therapy services. We hope you will join Senators Ben Cardin (D-MD), Dean Heller (R-NV) as well as the National Association of Home Care and Hospice (NAHC) and the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA), the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) and support the Medicare Home Health Flexibility Act.

We the community, believe Jessica has proven to be unfit to handle the responsibility of being a community manager. She has proven this through various mishandled altercations. Some of which she creates herself. She has also proven to be selective in her punishment. In some instances, she trolls as much as those who she has punished. In others, she has proven to be insensitive to toxicity offending players. A person being a CM do so with no biases. As a whole and for the better of the community, we believe Jessica is unable to do so. It would be best to have her go on a "break".

My name is Lily Erickson Seltz, and I'm beyond ready for change in our governmental policies on gun control to keep students like me - and Americans, young and old, in school and out of it - safe. Join me in calling on our government to act. Organized and written by high-school students, and published on a teen-run website for journalism by high-school students (highlyindy.com), this letter is a compilation of 13 teenage voices sharing their thoughts and demanding action on gun control in the wake of the Parkland shooting - and the long-persistent problem of gun violence in America. Please sign this petition - to be delivered to members of Congress - to support this powerful message. And please, students: add your thoughts and your voice in the "personal message" section as well to strengthen the statement. Thank you for standing with me to demand a safer country for everyone.

The fees are so outrageous landlords are leaving dumpsters ON THE STREET in front of their buildings to avoid paying them. It is unconscionable to charge the fees Waste Management is charging. Since when can the city tell us which vendors we can hire for services? Why are they letting them rob us blind?

We need to hold someone accountable. The system failed these dogs. This man was on probation and although he had a plea agreement, nobody ever checked up on him. There is a 3-dog maximum in Smithfield, so why was it allowed for him to get all 25-30 dogs back last year without provisions? Accountability Needs To Start Here & Now Regardless Of The "Laws."

We are starting this petition because they tore down the old but functional and fun playground. The city wants to replace the playscape with an all-metal playground only suited for 8 and older kids, that will get hot in the Texas heat almost year round. There are a lot of the Pflugerville Pfamiles not happy with this decision, being that we are the ones that spend time at the park all year round.
