Sheila Jackson Lee-http://www.sheilajacksonlee18.com/ I am most like Sheila Jackson lee because of the many similarities we have on the issues of today. She is a democrat and we share some of the some hopes for the future of America. On many of the issues I have looked up online we have to same positions on them. On one bill she sponsored about child gun safety and gun access prevention act of 2007. She gave the same statements I would on that issues. She wants to decrease the number of accidents that are happening with people at 18 being able to have a gun to 21.

About my issues: 1. must notify the department after moving or changing name within 30 days. 2. It is unlawful to possess a firearm in a penal institution. 3.

intends to use it unlawfully. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;">Cyber bullying: <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;">1. most cyber bullying happens over email, IM, or text. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;">2. Females are twice as likely to cyber bully than males. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;">3. 49-70% of people who are bullied never know who it is. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;">4. cyber bullying happens frequently among middle school students. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;">5. victims are often unwilling to come forward to their parents because they will "protect them".

<span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;">Drunk driving: <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;">1. The penalty given is often too light for the crime committed on the road. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;">2. This is the most deadly and preventable causes of traffic related accidents. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 11pt;">3.

<span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">The issues I put on this page are very important to today's society.They are big problems but they can be easy to fix if we can all work together to solve them. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Cyber bullying is something that can be controlled by the people of the united states. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Drunk driving is something we can change but enforcing more rules will help keep the roads clear and safe for others to drive on. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Gun control is something we can work on to make better. We can have better laws and more enforcements to help with this issue.

My Bill: People have had problem with guns today and there is nothing out there that is really fixing my problem. It will work with the community to keep people safe. people should vote for it because it will help to keep everyone safe. This lock and key idea came from how many stolen guns have been reported in the United States. without the key those guns wont be able to be fired for any reason. Yes, it will create more money spent, but the companies that participate will being getting tax breaks. The people that turn in their guns will also get some of the money for their guns they have turned in to the court house.
