I am having a problem with this, how does the fifth amendment of the constitution apply to PERS?  Are you looking at "" nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.""? Please explain because your petition doesn't make it clear.

"I hereby petition the United States Government through its federal courts for a redress of grievances on behalf of the school-age children of the State of Oregon who are suffering an unfair dismantling of their public school education opportunities as a consequence of wrongful and illegal tax money mismanagement by adults within the state government." This of course would be Oregon Ballot Measure 5. The measure transferred the responsibility for school funding from local government to the state, to equalize funding. Looking at funding, for the Universities it has gone downhill for decades. Same for K-12, the state has not kept up with costs.
