Fight to ensure equal protection of the civil liberties of minors attending public schools.

Many public schools tell their students that they "lose some of their rights" when they step on the school property. This is unacceptable. I am petitioning the White House to investigate this practice, and put an end to it. Last year, my high school principal threatened disciplinary action against a student who started a petition against new policies. The action was threatened specifically because the student had started a petition. Because of this threat, a majority of the students who had signed the petition quickly withdrew their names. The right to petition should not be hindered or threatened in any way whatsoever.
