Jessica Tillo __State__: Missouri

__State Capitol__: Jefferson City

__Political Party__: Moderate

__Representative__: Jo Ann Emerson The representative that I share issues and beliefs with is Jo Ann Emerson. I share a lot of personal beliefs with Jo Ann. We had many of the same political views on quite a few issues. For example we both agreed that the government should try to make more jobs available for people who don't have a job, because it would help the economy.

President 2012: I have a lot of thoughts about who should be the new president. I don't exactly think that President Obama has done a great job within the four years that he has been president. The economy has gotten tremendously worse since has has been in office, not only did the economy get worse but he hasn't done much about it. He has created some jobs, but what he has created isn't enough for how bad the economy really is. There are still thousands of people out of work who really need a job to support themselves and their families. I think that Mitt Romney would do a better job and trying to create more jobs. That's just my opinion.

@SB43: Let Parents Be With Their Children Act Our bill is to bring illegal parents to the United States to visit their fully legal children. People have come to the United States as illegal immigrants and sometimes gives birth. The child would be safely secured, but the parents would be immediately deported afterwards. We believed that this is terrible, even if it is the law. The child has a right to see who had brought them into this world, and parents have a right to see their child grow up. This bill would need to have a special program for people who want to take care of the children, and have some people who are truly devoted to this cause. We could reunite a lot of families if this bill is passed, if only for a short time.

The people in the community should vote for our bill because children need to have their parents in their lives. Say a parent moved from another country to the United States and they have a child who is a legal citizen, but the parent gets deported back to their country and isn't aloud to visit their child. That isn't right. A parent should be able to see their child.
