I am sick and tired of being blinded by the lights, and I'm sure many other people are, too! They cause so much glare, and prevent you from seeing the road, or possible pedestrians. I was just out for a walk, and it's hard to see the sidewalk when being blinded by oncoming traffic.

We say, Renovate - Don't Desecrate! Please sign the petition! Stop the Demolition! Restore the existing terrazzo. Expand Harvey Milk Plaza into the streets...

This petition was created by concerned neighbors and community members in the late winter of '17-'18 as an aspect of the Twin Parklets initiative.We submitted 2 parklet applications to government and nonprofit stakeholders (Public Works and SF Parks Alliance) in early March 2018. UPDATE: PRE_COVID, we have collected over 1500 'wet' signatures that included actual conversations with neighbors, workers, visitors and merchants. We want a green, sustainable and beautiful solution to an important and efficient transit hub that has suffered from urban strains, yet is structurally sound. This site already educates and inspires visitors from far and wide. The neighborhood character will be impacted by the of the demolishing of this built environment.

From gun violence to universal healthcare, no field of endeavor or conflict in this country is untouched by the legacy of racism manifest by our American destiny. Despite scholarly and established work to the contrary, CDC cries "No evidence-based best practices to address it" as an excuse not to do their job, so the people must demand it. I have seen the stress of loss of privilege, the minute daily drips of intangible "microaggressions" and the gaping wounds of bullets; I took an oath and DO NO HARM is not enough. We're also on Twitter and would ask folks to tweet Trevor Noah and other prominent folks who "have the mic"! @Right2healthNow

The toxic circumstances of WORKPLACE/ACADEMIC BULLY has been well known for years. But progress for change has been excruciatingly slow primarily because of elected, civic and business powers that be. Elected officials in Albany should know that the time for change WAS YESTERDAY.

The word democracy does not appear in The Constitution nor does it appear in The Declaration of independence. America is NOT nor was it ever intended to be a Democracy. We cannot spread Democracy by war all over the world if we are not a Democracy! All too often in our political system we fight with left and right, it's time we all stand in unity as a Republic, the way our forefathers intended...one nation under God

Yes, it is about preserving in the wild these magnificent animals who are in fact returned natives here in North America and contribute positively to the ecosystems they inhabit when not subject to the unjust and dishonest "squeeze plays" of corrupt officials & disrespectful officials. They are also very important preventers of catastrophic wildfires. This is about obeying the law and the will of the general public concerning this crucially important Quality of Life issue here in America.

In Washington, DC, our nation's capital, we have no voting member of Congress, and our local taxes and laws are subject to the control of Congress. This violates every principle of democracy and it is un-American.

## THE MORAL AND FISCAL CASE FOR A DISABILITY LIVING WAGE The current Social Security Disability system is built on an inherently flawed "pay-to-play" model. By basing monthly payments on prior work history and "work credits," the government effectively penalizes those who become disabled at a young age. These individuals never had the chronological opportunity to build a career or pay into the system, yet they are forced to survive on significantly less support than those injured later in life. This creates a systemic "youth penalty" that traps our most vulnerable citizens in a cycle of lifelong poverty. The financial logic of the current system is also deeply counterproductive. When disability payments fall below the actual cost of living, individuals are often forced into state-funded nursing homes or long-term care facilities. These institutions cost taxpayers significantly more than a direct living wage would. By providing a livable income, we allow people to live independently in their communities, which is not only more humane but a far more responsible use of public funds. Beyond the financial savings, a living wage provides the foundation for true autonomy. Those disabled early in life lack the 401(k)s, home equity, or personal savings that older adults may have accumulated. A guaranteed living wage levels the playing field, ensuring that a person’s ability to afford food, accessible housing, and medical necessities is based on their human dignity rather than their previous tax contributions. Providing a living wage also acts as a direct stimulus to local economies. Unlike high earners who may save or invest their income, disabled individuals living on a fixed budget spend their benefits immediately on essential local goods and services like groceries, rent, and healthcare. This keeps wealth circulating within the community and supports small businesses, turning a social safety net into an engine for local economic stability. Ultimately, America must decide if its disability program is an insurance policy for the lucky or a safety net for all. We demand that Congress eliminate the work-credit requirement for those with permanent disabilities and establish a universal benefit floor that meets the modern cost of living. It is time to end the administrative complexity of the current tiers and replace them with a simple, dignified, and livable standard for every permanently disabled American.

The USPS is sounding the alarm: without action, it could run out of money and stop deliveries before we know it.  And we don’t need to tell you: that would be the WORST possible timing for the millions of Americans who vote by mail. This was no accident. Trump and his allies have spent years trying to gut the USPS – pushing cuts, downsizing, and privatization schemes to dismantle a public service that millions of Americans rely on every day.  If Congress doesn’t step in, they may finally succeed. Trump has never hidden his goal: he's hell-bent on taking away our right to vote by mail, and seems to believe that any government function that isn't about making him or his fellow billionaires richer just isn't worth it. But we know the truth: the USPS is a vital, dependable, and all-American public service that’s crucial to our democracy. If Trump thinks he can take it away from us without a fight, he's got another thing coming. Sign The Petition: Tell Congress to act now and fully fund the USPS before it’s too late >>

HB211 in Louisiana would criminalize homelessness, imposing penalties and mandated “homelessness courts” instead of providing access to housing or supportive services. Such measures do not address the root causes of homelessness and further destabilize vulnerable individuals. We must prioritize housing-first solutions and comprehensive support rather than punitive policies.
