Victories in Local Government

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.
Aice supported: Aziza's Law. Criminalize Incest in New Jersey Now
This dog should be released to go home, he was hit by a car and was in severe pain, not aggressive! The natural reaction for a dog in pain is to bite out of fear and self defense. A shelter should know this and advocate for the animal but I suppose that&#39;s not the case in this instance. It&#39;s deeply unsettling that a shelter, an organization meant to protect animals, is pushing to euthanize a dog who isn&#39;t aggressive, and has a loving home with a dedicated owner waiting for him. Major has spent over 500 days in a shelter without his family. Think about the toll it takes on a dog to be seperated from everything he knows for that long. Their owners are their whole life, and they are only a part of ours. How could you deprive an owner of the time they have with their dog, AND to try and shorten that time when they are trying to negotiate terms to get their dog back. Even going as far to say they will muzzle him and even professional trainers are offering to help! The victim in this case has stated that they do not believe the dog should be euthanized for this incident. That alone should dismiss this entire case! What is the matter with you people, imagine not being able to see your own dog for over 500 days and being told to euthanize them. Shame on all of you.<br> <br> FREE MAJOR!!!
Megan supported: FREE MAJOR
It’s just plain animal cruelty to have him locked up in confinement for so long without even seeing his owner! And what wasted resources for boarding and for the city legal fees when he was acting out of instinct from pain. Let that sweet boy go home!!
Holly supported: FREE MAJOR
As a homeowner in Belle Meade Highlands for 35 years, Cheekwood has been a good neighbor as has the metro owned park and the public golf course. All are there for our neighbors to enjoy. This pitting of neighbors against neighbors is unfriendly and unnecessary. Everyone in Belle Meade Highlands has enjoyed increased property values. Let’s all be good neighbors and enjoy all that our Neighborhood has to offer the community.
Martha supported: SAVE CHEEKWOOD: Help protect our history and culture
Cheekwood has been a special place to my family.<br> From art installations to seasonal and holiday celebrations. Cheekwood is a historical Tennessee treasure that should remain with us as long as the earth spins. Greed and personal gain has stolen so much from the richness and culture of our world. Do not allow it to take Cheekwood from us too.
Angela supported: SAVE CHEEKWOOD: Help protect our history and culture
Cheekwood is one of the most beautiful and unique places that Nashville has to offer — the seasonal, holiday, and cultural celebrations bring people together in joy, learning, and uplifting spirits. My multigenerational family has enjoyed much of what Cheekwood has to offer for many years, including annual traditions that we have created…truly some of the most magical and special memories have been created at Cheekwood. I can’t even imagine a Cheekwood-less Nashville —that would be a major loss and a very sad day for Nashville.

Dolly’s Foundation is the only entity that gave financial support to my son (as well as everyone who lost their home) in the 2016 Gatlinburg fire. With that money he was able to have a down payment on another house
Lynn supported: Rename Nashville International Airport to Dolly Parton International Airport
TN born and bred. Provided my daughter with books to read along with many other children across the nation. Hell of a musician. I wish I could pick like that with my fingernails, haha. <br> <br> A lot of us Tennesseans identify with Dolly. Similar raisings, picking music, trying to make ends meet, and having your family help you get through it. Through the good and the bad we still have it all. As a fellow Tennessee girl, she understands us hicks from Appalachia. A hard worker. She didn&#39;t have it handed to her like some people we know. She is an inspiration to us and deserves to have her name on Nashville’s International Airport. Makes more sense if you ask me. Wish more people had it.
