5 facts about my state is:
 * 1) It once was its own country.
 * 2) It once was the biggest state.
 * 3) It once was a slave state.
 * 4) Its capital is Austin, Texas.
 * 5) Became a state in 1845.

The 4 issues that are most interesting to me is:
 * 1) Gun Control- I think Gun Control is an important issue because people should not have the right to bear arms where ever they go. I wouldn't feel safe if there was someone in a restaurant with a gun while I was in there too. What if a criminal got hold of a gun, that wouldn't be good, That is why I don't think people should bear arms in public places.
 * 2) Envirnment and Energy- I think we should worrying about this issue because we have been having record highs in temperature these past years. We should be worrying about what we use as energy. On television, we've been seeing clean coal commercials, and I say to that is is, how can you make coal clean. It is still as bad for the envirnment as any other natural gas. The government should be spending there money on a new idea to find a clean way of energy.
 * 3) National Defence- I think we should also worry about National Defence, because over recent years there have been terriost attacks, not just in America, but around the world. We should check people when they enter any public building, they should also check people when they enter a place of business and places where people work.America should do a better job in keeping us safe.
 * 4) Social networking sites- I think this is important because we need to protect children, teens, and adults from being mentally and emotionally harmed on social networking sites. People can be harmed by a form of bullying called cyber bully, peole do this because they feel more protected when their not infront of the person.More people cyber bully because they can put a name that is not their own, and the use of hand held electronics also make it easier to cyber bully. This is why we should worry about social networking sites.

Our bill is called S.N.S.P (Social Networking Sites Protected), and it a deals with to protect children, teens, and adults from being mentally, emotionally, and physically harmed by social networking sites, by dealing with cyber bullying and a way to stop it.It will work by, if any one reports being cybr bullied the cyber bullyer will get a worning and if the person does it again the person will get a fine, and so on. People should vote on our bill because we need to stop cyber bullying from affecting so many young and older Americans of being harmed emotionally an emotionally.
