Incest MUST be illegal. It ruins the lives of many, as a victim myself I have never been able to recover. It has been years and I cannot bear to be around a man because of him. I cannot have children anymore, my dream was to be a mother and my anxiety is so high I have to wear a monitor for my heart to detect dangerous spikes. He told me, he was going to Marry me, and no one looked at him weird because it’s legal. My calls for help were denied because molesting me when I was an child and raping me was not a crime. When we were 19, he proposed and threatened If I told he would continue to rape me. If I could become a mother, do you understand the worries I would face, every single day?! You see, my trauma is no longer preventable. But someone else’s is. Don’t make this same mistake by allowing this legally. Stop abuse before it begins.

Flight training schools amplify the harms they inflict on us by recruiting foreign students to bolster their bottom line. The students&#39; home countries won&#39;t tolerate the environmental degradation, so they are complicit in turning it on us.<br> In our community, Hillsboro (Oregon) Aero Academy rakes in government subsidies (federal, state and local), boasts a student roster of over 50% foreign nationals (Pacific Rim, esp China, and EU countries), abuses our environment without compensation or meaningful limitations, and sends its profits to its out-of-state owners.<br> Keep the pressure on public and private leaders to end this corrupt and poisonous business model.

Las Vegas, NV. I&#39;ve been under constant assault by commercial airlines flying low and loud over my home since October 2023. I have counted three per minute nearly every day 6 a.m. - midnight at times! I contacted the ombudsman whose reply was that this was temporary and to expect this only 25 percent of the year. It&#39;s now been seven months - over 50 percent of the time. That was a lie. I bought this home 20 years ago and it never happened until now. I called the FAA noise hotline yesterday and was told, &quot;The FAA decided to use that runway and we can&#39;t do anything about it.&quot; Now what? My health is deteriorating with PTSD symptoms and my thoughts interrupted every 20 seconds. If I&#39;m on the phone, I must stop talking until the plane passes and tell the person on the other end of the phone, &quot;I can&#39;t hear you. You&#39;re going to have to repeat what you just said.&quot; Try that three times a minute! I can&#39;t sleep. Can&#39;t think, Can&#39;t have friends come over. Isolation. Trauma. Torture. Racing heart. This is no quality of life. Others are getting rich while homeowners are suffering.

I am deeply concerned that there has not been great management of the airport and it has been allowed to grow to an untenable level with flight schools. Leaded AvGas is used by small engine planes that make up 96% of the traffic North Las vegas. There is no transparency or governance of this impactful airport for the community to allow us to be involved in the decision making process that enables change at this airport. Leaded fuel and noise are hazardous to our health and well being

Stop the audio and health abuse! Stop destroying our peace and quiet in our homes.

I live in the departure zone of Hawthorne Airport. Since 2015 the commercial jets are unacceptable. Use a commercial airport not a public one and jeopardize the lives of the residents

There are 20,000 nuisance airports in our minority communities. These airports are responsible for 70% of the leaded air floating around. Our families breathe this contamination air.<br> <br> These airports are for the most part subsidized by our tax dollars. Why are my tax dollars going to subsidize airports that bring lead contaminated air and noise pollution into our communities?<br> <br> There is no safe level of lead and day in and day out our children are being neurologically and physically damaged by these nuisance airports.<br> <br> Flying an airplane is a luxury. Breathing clean lead free air and living under quiet skies are a necessity for all communities.<br> <br> How much longer are we going to let our communities be sacrificed for so,dones personal hobby?<br> <br> Children over profits.
