 Health & Safety : Health and safety is and important issue to me because I think that everyone should have affordable health care now matter where or how you live. Having good health care isn't a privilage it is a right and I think everyone needs to have good health care. Safety is also important because everyone should be living in a safe place and not having to worry about anything. Education : Education is also an important issue because every child should have a good education so they can live a good sucesful life and do anything that they wish to do when they are older. It is also important to have a good school system because then the kids can see that what there learning in class will help them in the future. Environment & Energy : This is also an important issue to face because with the whole economy, much of it is gas prices also. Since we started having gas issues, many things in America, as prices have gone up a lot. We need to find a way to substitut or something to lower many of the gas prices now. **

My group's bill is to try lowering and maybe getting to 0% of the drunk driving accidents throughtout our country. This is an important issue to us because the drunk driving statistics in America have recently been increasing a ton since many years ago. It is terrible to be in a drunk driving accident and kill an innocent child or adult, so we need to stop this throughout the country. Our bill page is http://mockcongress09.wikispaces.com/HB+61.
