Congress Person most like me: I have many political views that side with the democratic party. After I researched all of the representatives of Pensylvania, I came across Chaka Fattah. I looked in his biography and I noticed many of his beliefs, I noticed how I agreed with him greatly. One view I think is very important is having a dept free America. This is a key issue of Chaka's. He is having benefits all of the time to help take action against the debt crisis accross the United States. Another stance of his that I agree with is enforcing our Bill of Rights. Often republicans view themselves with more rights. that one racial group, religion, or social status is more superior in politics. Chaka clearly paints a picture that we ALL have EQUAL rights. If you are a citizen of The United States of America, you have every right listed in the Bill of Rights. These are just a few of the many reasons that I chose Chaka Fattah.

**2012 Election:** I personally endorse President Barack Obama for the upcoming 2012 election. I have contributed greatly to the campaign in 2008, and I will continue ongoing support this year. I agree with the majority of the Presidents views. These include his stances on Abortion, Foreign Policy, Gay Marriage, Healthcare, and,any more. The President is a strong minded person. He is affraid of no body. He represents all of America. Not just the top 1% of our population that believes they have more rights. Obama is the most selfless President. He has my utmost respect. I will always support President Barack Obama.

SB48 The purpose of this bill is to decrease the amount of illegal citizens in the US. We plan to do this by making stricter border control and making our country more aware of all immigrants entering. We also plan to change the process of becoming a citizen. We would like to be more welcoming to immigrants and understanding of their situation. Our goal is to make this process cheaper and quicker. We would like to put our new "application process" into play, also. This bill could affect our country's economy and make it a safer place to live. This issue is important because if affects every citizen of the US and could change our lives drastically, in a positive way, when passed. People should vote for Senate Bill 48 for many reasons. First, Senate Bill 48 ensures the safety and security of all americans. Immigrants are a huge part of the economy and diversity of our great nation. We want to welcome all immigrants and their cultures into our society. But we want it to be a safe and legal way where everyone is accounted for. Often, people want a better life. They look at America as the world of oppertunity, but they cannot afford to become a citizen of the United States. The last resort for them is to enter illegally. Instead of them crossing the border illegally, we have come up with a more affordable way. In our Constitution it says tht freedom is a natural righ and everyone should have it. Therefore, freedom should not be bought, freedom should be earned.

Issues today include excessive smoking. Smoking is very bad for citizens. I think smoking should be illegal for everyone. Smoking doesn't only effect the person smoking, it also effects the people around. It is also a main cause of polution. I believe our corrupt government is only allowing smoking for the tax dollards they are earning WHY? Why should we allow people to ruin the health of others for ten minute sensation. This is a horrible addiction accross America. Everyday, more and more minors start smoking. We tell them it's bad. But why would the government ever allow us to do something harmful? Smoking should be illegal! Drinking is another common issue today. People all over drink all day lond. This is a threat to society. We are all in danger of drunk drivers and so many more things that come along with drinking. Drinking allows people to make poor decisions and it tears apart families. Drinking is an addictive DRUG that altures the brain and nervous syste. ANY SUBSTANCE THAT AFFECTS THE EVERYDAY LIFE OF HUMANS AND ALTERS THERE CHOICES SHOULD BE ABOLISHED IMMEDIATELY!!!!! Another very horrific item found nationally is drug use. We must come up with a better way to stop drug use for good. I think we should make drug consequences more severe to scare people out of using them. The drug ladder is growing and affecting teens and taring apart your future. Other countries have small law consequences that are more severe than ours. Like in singapore, if you get caught chewing gum, you go to jail for six weeks. The crime rate is so low in singapore that it should be a direct model for this great melting pot. Throughout the state, many citizens suffer from dependency of cigaretts, alcohol and illegal drug use.
 * Issues Today:** There are many issues today throughout America.
