Morgan Barnhizer **party**: Democrat **Congress people**: http://fudge.house.gov/ Marcia L. Fudge - her committee assignments are Agriculture and science, space, and technology. Both me and Marcia live in Ohio and apparently both like fudge. She believes in ending childhood obesity, i also agree with this to a point. I agree with it because it will help our generation and the next to loose weight and not have to deal with the side affects of obesity.

**<span style="color: black; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Three issues that are most important to you. plus position on them: **

The purpose of our bill is to keep our schools safe. We believe that after a set amount of suspensions to one individual they should then be enrolled into a separate special school. This school will be used to deal with juvenile delinquents. It will contain the main courses: math, english, science, social studies, reading or a foreign language, lunch, recess, and a mandatory therapy group. If the child is caught with drugs or alcohol they will immediately be sent to a rehab center or jail depending on the substance and quantity. We are proposing this bill not only for the juveniles getting suspended, but their class mates. If they were ever bullied they would then be able to live in a safer environment.
 * <span style="color: black; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">1. || <span style="color: black; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">Freedom of speech || <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">My position: I agree with freedom of speech to a limit. Being nasty with words should not be allowed. Although it is a sigh of one’s symbolic expression. ||
 * <span style="color: black; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">2. || <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">Forest Conservation || <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">My position: I personally think that we should cut back on deforestation. This is because one it is home to many species, and probably ones we haven't even discovered yet. I must say i do have a soft spot for animals, and the beauty of nature. Since we do have to use paper for every day purposes, it is hard to get around cutting down a vast number of trees. If anything only the trees making it hard for other trees to grow. Or if not possible small quantities in several areas. This might be more of a cost but it will give the area more time to grow back, and in the long run keep the environment in order more. ||
 * <span style="color: black; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">3. || <span style="color: black; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">Homelessness (Poor hobos!!) || <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">My position: This is starting to become more and more of an issue. With lack of jobs available to people, unemployment and poverty grew in urban areas. This made it is hard for them to get enough money for a proper home, or one at all. Many of the soldiers that fought come back and are not able to get jobs to support themselves. Homelessness is also found in Cleveland which is really close by to us. ||
 * My bill:**

Our bill will need spaces in each district depending on the amount of repeated suspensions per year, and experienced teachers and counselors, and the equipment.

Please vote for our bill. It will help keep our schools safe, and provided a school better fitted to the select students.
