SB3 **My bill is on the economy/unemployment. VOTE YES ON SB3**

You should vote for my bill because this will help a lot of families get back on their feet. Also it introdues new carrers for the unemployed people of America. INstead of haveing a illegal imigrant take your job because now we will have all over the United states have people turn in names of every one of their workers. With this we will make backround checks on every one of the employees and if there is a illegal immigrant that company could be terminated. Also on the flip side we will be createing more jobs for those looking for a long lasting place that is affiliated with the government. So now after this bill the unemployment rate will significantly go down and and do nothing but benefit America. That is why you should vote yes on SB3.


 * The 3 issues that are most interesting and important to you, with my position on that topic:**


 * Issue number 1: Economy**

My position on the economy would have to be that we need to fight to keep small businesses and the large manufacturers going. One of the main reasons why we are in debt is because we have been reliing on other countries products. I believe that if we continue with this it is just going to dig us a bigger hole for us to crawl out of. Just in the past few years unemployment has gone up in kansas and now we need to work on getting that rate down for all of America.


 * Issue number 2: Education**

The topic education is a huge topic that I have a big stand on. I believe that college scholorships should have more percise ways of exceptence. some students get free rides all the way through their lives to become profesional athelete in a sport. I am one of those kids that does play sports, but i dont beieve in this. I do not like this because they do not have to get a lot of education for these sports. Unlike others who have to work at their carrers in school. That is why execptance should be more persise.


 * Issue number 3: Gun Laws**

The laws in kansas are that the only gun that you need a permit for is a handgun. all other guns may be carried whenever and wherever. I do not agree with these laws because they could cause people to start riots and end up with people killing eachother. Nothing but bad things can come out of this. In kansas they should have a law of haveing guns illegal to have in urban areas but in rural places you should be forced to have at least a permit. That is my stand on gun laws.
