• Stop poisoning our water!
    Even a minimal amount of research reveals that Fluoride is a harmful toxin known to cause cancer and other health risks, and we are being forced to drink it every day in our tap water because the companies that produce this toxic waste have convinced you it's good for your teeth. Many countries around the world, as well as many areas in the USA have recently demanded a stop to fluoridation, and it's time for the entire country to wake up and demand a stop to the mass "medication." I don't want fluoride in my family's water!

  • Gym Memberships as an Eligible Medical Expense
    HSA/HRA accounts are the medical plans for employers and individuals. We can use these accounts to pay for co-pays and Viagra. However, those accounts will not cover gym memberships and supplements such as vitamin D. Let us follow Mrs. Obama's lead and make preventative health care a priority.

  • FDA: Save Antibiotics
    Up to 80 percent of all antibiotics in the U.S. are sold for livestock, not people. These antibiotics are getting mixed right into the feed of healthy animals to encourage fast growth. When bacteria are exposed to these antibiotics, they develop resistance, and the resulting infections can withstand even our most powerful medicine. We need to show the FDA that the public wants to stop this misuse of antibiotics on factory farms to protect our health.

  • Protect Elderly in Assisted Living Care Homes from Abuse
    There are currently few protections in place to keep our loved ones safe when living in residential care facilities. The existing law does not have a procedure in place for investigating allegations of mistreatment or neglect of the elderly who reside in these homes. This has resulted in injury and death because there was no one charged with the responsibility of making sure that those who could not care for themselves were getting the care they needed and deserved.

  • Expand Medicaid patients' access to physicians
    Well-established physicians, particularly those in suburban practices, have little incentive to accept Medicaid because they can fill their schedules with patients whose insurance offers higher payments. This means that people who rely on Medicaid are largely shunted to a limited number of doctors, often those with less experience or lesser credentials, for example, no board certifications. "Healthcare for all" should mean "all healthcare for all."

  • Safer Antibiotic Use: Make Probiotics Mandatory!
    Antibiotics are great at killing bacteria that make us sick, but in the process of fighting germs they also kill off good bacteria. Too few Doctors are prescribing probiotics alongside antibiotics. After years of taking antibiotics for chronic sinus infections, I fell very ill and found out my intestinal flora of good bacteria had been completely wiped out and also had a massive overgrowth of yeast in my body; it's been a long ongoing process to re-balance and regain my health. Millions of Americans are suffering from this oversight and it's time to put a stop to these avoidable illnesses!

  • Universal health care for Veterans
    We are tired of getting inferior care and having to travel long distances to get our medical care. The Federal government should provide all veterans universal health care--the right to go to the doctor(s) and hospital(s) of their choice and be fully covered by medical insurance.

  • RI Dept of Health: Stop the Harassment of our lyme Doc!
    Another group of Doctors filed a complaint against Dr. James Gloor, the local Doctor in the North Kingstown community who treats Lyme disease patients with long term antibiotics. When their complaint about his treatment of lyme and its co- infections failed, they fell back on a bogus claim that his medical charts are too sloppy. Help us as RI patients retain treatment options and stop the harassment of Dr Gloor.
