The Representative that I share issues and beliefs with: Bill Owens, because he believes in a cleaner source of energy such as hydro electric in place of fossil fuels. I agree with him for the most part but there are a few areas where i don't share his views, such as a totally green economy. I believe we do need a cleaner source of energy but a totally green economy is probably not realistic as it would be cost prohibitive to convert to 10o%. I do believe that saudi arabia and the middle east are over -charging for oil, while we as americans are sitting on top of one of the biggest oil supplies in the world and we refuse to drill for it. We need to find both short term and long term solutions to our energy, economic and environmental problems


 * President 2012**: I believe Mitt Romney would make a good president in 2012 because i have seen most of his campaigning and i agree with his political views. I believe he connects well with our economic and financial issues as. he is a very successful businessman. He also supports foreign immigration, which i agree with because this will further increase the number of tax payers in america. He also brings up many good points such as welfare. He feels that there are two kinds of people on welfare, the people who are physically unable to work that are in need of welfare and people who are uninspired to get a job. I think that if we eliminate the people who are uninspired to work our taxes would be reduced.

HB60- The purpose of this bill is to reduce bullying nationwide. We want to make it so kids do not have to live with fear of being teased or harassed any longer. Children should not be worried about going to school or being online. Kids are being bullied to the point of where it effects their lives and those around them for a long time to come. People should vote for it because it is the right and humane thing to do. It will also create a better life for future generations.

1) Religion in schools continues to be a big issue and needs to be resolved. There are many different religions that are in school and if everyone argued about it we would never be at peace. We need to be able to have the right to share our religious beliefs wherever we go or we would be in violation of the 1st amendment. Religion should be allowed in schools. This should be done peacefully and without bullying someone else for their religious beliefs. This is where repercussions should occur. Kids should also be able to wear religious clothing and jewelry to express their religious beliefs.
 * Key Issues**

2) Gun control is becoming an issue in New York. Gangs are everywhere in New York and are obtaining guns illegally. I think a citizen should have the right to bear arms, but under legal circumstances. It is stated in the Constitution that it is a right for Americans to bear arms, but when people start to illegally obtain guns that right is taken away.People should not be able to to bring a concealed fire arm into a bar if they are going to, or are already drinking. There should also be a restriction on the caliber of firearm that is able to be concealed. Nothing over a 9mm (nine millimeter) should be able to be concealed.

3) Welfare is starting to become an troubling issue. It was created to help those that could not help themselves and is a valuable, needed program. However, people are finding ways to needlessly obtain welfare. These people don’t require the services of welfare. I believe it should be harder to get on welfare. Thorough background checks and investigations should take place. People should also be legally be monitored if they are on welfare. This monitoring will ensure that those that are still eligible for welfare and in need get the services.
