The proposed 20-foot extension of the 38 Geary bus stop into the intersection at the northwest corner of 48th Ave and Geary Blvd in front of Sutro Heights Park is bad for the neighborhood for many reasons, including but not limited to the following: 1. Makes safely crossing the street (48th Ave) on the north side of the intersection (where there is no stop sign or crosswalk) impossible and much more dangerous for pedestrians 2. Impedes access to Sutro Heights Park for neighborhood residents, children, dog walkers, and recreationalists 3. Will reduce parking spaces in the neighborhood for residents and visitors 4. Increases the potential for accidents at the intersection (where there is no stop sign and a history of accidents with MUNI) as buses will be pulling out from a parked position into a 90-degree direct left turn onto 48th Ave 5. Passengers will now catch the bus in the middle of the intersection where there is no stop sign or crosswalk and be dropped off in the same place, which is very dangerous (what about wheelchair or handicapped passengers?) 6. Increased congestion, noise, and litter at the intersection The proposed bus stop extension does not improve our neighborhood. It will endanger pedestrians, motorists, and bus passengers at the intersection, and impede public access to Sutro Heights Park. Please sign this petition if you are in agreement to oppose the extension of the 38 Geary bus stop prior to the Engineering Public Hearing at City Hall on February 2nd, 2018 at 10 am when the issue will be heard. Thank you for your support.

Apple's default applications such as iTunes, iPhoto, and iMessage are crucial to both iPhone users and hundreds of millions of people. Unfortunately, Apple has gone out of its way to make these applications incompatible with Linux based operating systems. We demand that Apple make these applications cross-compatible for the millions of Linux users across the world who also use iPhone's and iTunes regularly.

Social workers are the lowest paid people on the planet! and they have the most student debt, which causes financial hardship and causes workers to leave the profession for better paying jobs. Plus, policy reflects the lack of social work education requirement in hiring social workers (a DHS worker requirement is a degree in any field), which sets the salaries for social workers on a low scale and Indian Health Service social work salaries (most of those positions are in rural areas) are even lower.

The Florida state bird is a Northern Mocking bird. Obviously, Florida is in the South, so why do we choose a Northern Mocking bird? The Northern Mocking bird is a very small bird not easily noticed, meaning not popular. The Pelican is a very lovable bird full of interest. It is very well known and can be found in the beautiful oceans of Florida that we love. Therefore the Pelican should be Florida's state bird, that we may all enjoy.

We want to start out stating this is not a petition to attack religious beliefs. It is a petition to remove the tax exempt status that ALL religious organizations have. Religious organizations should be entitled to tax write-offs like all other businesses but should not continue to receive a Non-Profit operating status. The taxes collected from the church can go into helping our communities infrastructure, public schools/education, health care and public assistance programs to help stimulate the economy.

The County Counselor who is the attorney for St. Louis County, works at the pleasure of the County Executive. The County Council should have their own in-house council so council-members can better serve the districts they represent. They develop and review hundreds of documents every year that are legally binding to every resident of St. Louis County and they should have legal representation that is beholden to the Council and not the County Executive.

The privacy of the internet has been compromissed. Control has been turned over to big corporations. The corporations can control who gets access to the internet as well as the speed of the internet.

I am personally involved teaching Dreamers.

Americans deserve better than pissing contests in Congress. We need to have our voices heard and those elected officials need to hear us. Until there is an amicable solution US House and Senate should not be paid for their lack of cohesion and work. Stop their pay over first.

These branches of government are paid during shutdowns because they are considered “essential”, but the impact is felt by “non-essential” civil service workers and the military. It also effects programs that serve and support low-income families and their healthcare. I believe that the politicians need to feel the impact of their decisions. I realize that career politicians are generally wealthy enough that they won’t really feel it, but their immediate staff will.

Legislators make $174,000 per year to do their job and can't seem to do their job. Most of us make far less than $174K and if we don't work, we don't get paid. In exchange for holding our service people and first responders hostage - lets collect a fine of $1,000 per day during a government shut down from each Senator and Representative. Our current president does not take a paycheck but future presidents may elect to do so - let's make sure they are included. Additionally - regular pay and benefits during the time the government is shut down are revoked (no back pay provided). Many Americans live this way and it is at our government's incompetent hand they must do so - legislators deserve a taste of this. A few Congresspeople have suggested a similar bill but it will not be introduced until next year - this is too late. This should have already been in place (http://bit.ly/2rnwT0H). Little known fact - the bill Obama signed to ensure military are paid in this event was temporary - http://bit.ly/2DTnNeJ - it expired in 2015. Senators and Congresspeople should be ashamed of their ineptitude. They should be ashamed of their short sightedness. They should be ashamed this is not already a law. They should be ashamed of collecting a paycheck for a job they did not do. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-wealth-reduces-compassion/ The White House has removed the petition site while they build a new one ([not appropriate] http://wapo.st/2EXt5VE) so this site will have to do.

Please sign on to this letter to the Lincoln City Council urging them to put the 2012 Fairness Ordinance to a city wide vote in the November 2018 elections. Six years is too long for our relatives, friends and neighbors to wait for these protections.
