5 facts about my issues i have been investigating: 1. There currently are 33 species of fish and wildlife listed as endangered or threatened under Maine's Endangered Species Act. 2.In order to protect endangered species and recover those soon to be extinct Maine has many private groups, government agencies, colleges and universities, landowners and individuals to do so. 3. Maine's rare, threatened, and endangered animal species is maintained by the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife. 4.Don Pilon is trying to draft a bill that restrains cyber-bullying and other types of harrassment in Augusta. 5.The topic of cyberbullying has become a hot-button issue as technology has progressed to the point where savvy young people easily can send instant messages or set up chat rooms or websites specifically designed to humiliate others in Maine.

3 issues of interest: Air pollution: I think this is very important because we need to be aware and start ways to reduce air pollution because it harms the environment. Another reason why i think its very important is because if we dont start now there could be major problems in the future for our kids and grandkinds.

Cyber bullying: I think this needs to be stopped right away. THis is very dangerous and happens more often then people would think. This is the leading cause of teenage suicide cases and needs to be prevented.

Forest conservation: This is important to me because if people dont stop cutting down forests and conserving resources there wont be any left. Also because when they are all gone it can cause many problems like effecting businesses and harming animals and taking away their homes.

Bill page link: http://mockcongress2011.wikispaces.com/SB38 My bill is a program that immigrants go to. When they arrive they will recieve a background check on their past employment and job abilities. After the background check they will be sent to an open job that best fits the background check. You should vote for my bill because it eliminates the problem of immigrants taking American jobs and filling the ones that need to be filled. It also is a way to let immigrants stay in America without any of these problems.
