5- 6th Lowest education rating

Environment and Energy- With many high wind places along the shores and on the land of Alabama, the state and U.S. does not use enough windmills for energy in the United States. Using Windmills is an excellent scorce of Energy. A feild of windmils can power an entire town. I beleive the Entire state of Alabama and the entire United States should use more windmills for a sorce of renewable energy.

Immigration- A major problem in the United Stets today is Immigration. I the Past nine years the f oreign immigration has increased over 25%. Many of the Immigrats are illigal immigrants from Mexico. I think the government should put higher security on the Mexican boarder and increase the amount of boarder patrol memebers On The Mexican boarder.

Education- Out of All fifty states, Alabama has one of the Lowest education ratings. Alabama is ranked the 6th lowest. Also, Alabama's Highschool dropout rate is Ranked 43rd in the nation. I think the government should put aside money and give more money to the schools and education programs around the U.S. This will help them purchace Supplies, books, and even help them create a safer and healthier enviroment. This wil also help the schools able to pay more teacher for smaller class sizes. This will give the Students a chance to get one on one time with the teachers.

Environment: I am most interested in making a bill about the environment. The environment is a major thing in the U.S. and Around the world. People every where are trying to "Go Green", which is a a good thing. Also People are trying to save The rainforest and National park in the USA. A final thing people are doing is Using Renewable rescorese such as Windmills and solar oanels to get electricty instead of coal. IF we do not save the eatrh now, our future will be ruind.
