It is especially disturbing to know a child is currently being used as a commodity to secure federal funding under petentious conditions. We need greater accountability to the people and every parent out there where corruption exists in destroying families and their parental rights. Where flagrant use of power by CPS is causing so much horror and suffering at the expense of TAXPAYERS. States are experiencing severe budget restraints and Social Security is going broke. We can no longer continue handing out billions of dollars to support this evil empire called CPS and the commerce of exploiting children,&amp;nbsp; CASH FOR KIDS.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;CPS empire must be exposed using transparency in our courtrooms. It is an agency badly in need of REFORM. Parents are entitled to be treated fairly. LET the TRUTH prevail. Thank you. You have my whole hearted support.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: 2009 Senate Bill 5654 (Creating a child welfare transparency committee)</title><link>http://www.washingtonvotes.org/forum/forums/thread/120771.aspx</link><pubDate>Wed, 04 Mar 2009 18:15:08 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8aea812f-02a0-4622-bb63-b8c2fd430f3a:120771</guid><dc:creator>workindad</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://www.washingtonvotes.org/forum/forums/thread/120771.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.washingtonvotes.org/forum/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=14&amp;PostID=120771</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;WOW thank you this legislation , I hope it passes and it sure is refreshing to see a legislator come forward with something worthwhile instead of the usual 50 ways to steal your money.....&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: 2009 Senate Bill 5654 (Creating a child welfare transparency committee)</title><link>http://www.washingtonvotes.org/forum/forums/thread/119991.aspx</link><pubDate>Sun, 01 Feb 2009 05:42:07 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8aea812f-02a0-4622-bb63-b8c2fd430f3a:119991</guid><dc:creator>Jim G</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://www.washingtonvotes.org/forum/forums/thread/119991.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.washingtonvotes.org/forum/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=14&amp;PostID=119991</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;Thank you for introducing this legislation.
