FOOD LABELING, NO DECEPTIONFood Labeling - Healthcare Crisis We demand honest, all-inclusive labeling of all food products and their ingredients. It is a basic consumer right to know what we are buying without deceptive wording or packaging. Natural doesn't mean organic. We have a right to know if genetically engineered or modified ingredients are in anything we purchase.10 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jan Brickey

Governor Martinez: Expand Medicaid in NMThousands of NM citizens are without health insurance right now. By expanding Medicaid in New Mexico under the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) we can ensure those citizens, who are our friends and neighbors, will be able to obtain health insurance and access health care when they need it. Expanding Medicaid in NM will also create hundreds of new jobs in our state.3,160 of 4,000 SignaturesCreated by Robbyne Jones

Govenor-Elect Steve Bullock support the Medicaid ExpansionWhether Montana decides to expand its Medicaid program will be a critical issue in the upcoming state legislative session. Governor Brian Schweitzer, heroically put the expansion in his proposed state budget for 2013-14. However, Govenor-Elect Steve Bullock hasn’t yet committed to expanding medicaid for the next two years. He needs to hear from the voters that are relying on him to fight to expand this vital program for the health and economic well-being of the state of Montana. NOW is the time to send a strong unified voice to Governor-Elect Steve Bullock. We had your back, now have ours! We urge you to support the Medicaid expansion provision in the Affordable Care Act that would extend coverage to nearly 60,000 currently uninsured people while creating good jobs for Montanans.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Starla Gade

Mayor Bloomberg: Stop the Sandy Healthcare Crisis and BUILD BACK BETTERAfter Sandy, New York City’s healthcare crisis is still unfolding. Healthcare professionals warn that the aftermath of the crisis leaves New Yorkers vulnerable to the spread of infectious diseases, mold and dust, and clean-up hazards. Thousands of New Yorkers – in Staten Island, the Rockaways, and Coney Island – are still trapped in their homes with urgent and unattended medical needs. Many are still without heat, electricity, hot water, or adequate food. The storm has weakened a healthcare system that was already failing many of our city’s residents -- primary care facilities are not disaster-proof, emergency response is lacking, and the current infrastructure does not ensure care to all New Yorkers. Mayor Bloomberg needs to take immediate action to fill the gap in care and take this as an opportunity to rebuild a better city healthcare system that provides quality care to all New Yorkers. 1. FILL THE GAP IN CARE Take immediate measures to fill the gap in care left by hospital closures and the hospital bed shortage resulting from Sandy. 2. RE-OPEN BELLEVUE, CONEY ISLAND, THE VA, AND NYU LANGONE The Mayor must commit to a clear, safe, and expedited timeline for the full re-opening of Coney Island Hospital, Bellevue Hospital, the Manhattan VA, and NYU Langone Medical Center – and get those hospitals the resources they need to make it happen. And the Mayor must take immediate steps to fully restore the infrastructure at hospitals that were damaged by the storm, like Coler Hospital on Roosevelt Island. 3. TAKE THE LEAD IN MEDICAL RELIEF - REQUEST HELP FROM FEMA The Mayor must take the lead in coordinating all medical relief efforts in the city, including regular monitoring of developing health concerns, adequate allocation and timely delivery of medical supplies, and regular communication and coordination with community-based relief efforts. The Mayor must also issue a formal request for much-needed assistance from FEMA. 4. BUILD BACK BETTER Sandy and its aftermath exposed the weakness in our city’s healthcare system. Many already lacked access to care before the storm hit. Now is the time for our city to re-invest in our healthcare infrastructure, including ensuring disaster and surge preparedness, rapid emergency response, and a stronger safety net. It’s time to rebuild a city healthcare system that serves all New Yorkers. Mayor Bloomberg, don’t let a healthcare crisis devastate our city. The time to act is NOW. Let's BUILD BACK BETTER.1,065 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Build Back Better
