"Health Care for ALL Oregon" (HCAO).Please support my petition for comprehensive universal healthcare for ALL Oregon (HCAO). HCAO is an issue that we all should be concerned about because most of us represent the 99%, and we are only one severe accident or illness away from needing affordable, quality, and accessible healthcare services. Therefore, the purpose of this petition is to garner public support for universal publicly funded healthcare throughout the state of Oregon and eventually the entire United States. All residing Oregonians deserve equitable access to quality healthcare services designed to meet all our needs. I am speaking from first hand experience. I am in dire need of healthcare services. However, I am over the age of 50, I have no children under the age of 18, and I am not working 20 hours per week. Because of these criteria, I like many others, am shut off from the Oregon Health Plan. Even if I were determined eligible by the current lottery process, which is unfair, Oregon health plan does not cover certain health conditions and or treatments. I believe every human being deserves comprehensive healthcare. Therefore, a comprehensive, universal, publicly funded healthcare reimbursement system would provide for complete coverage and treatment for the common good of all. It is with urgency that I ask you to please join me by signing this petition. This petition will be delivered to our Legislators and Governor asking for their consideration and support to pass legislation for a universal publicly funded healthcare for all Oregonians. Thanks to all of you, Glendora Claybrooks, Petitioner1,007 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Glendora Claybrooks

Medicare: Cover Continuous Glucose Monitors for those who really need them.Unlike Medicaid and private insurance, Medicare does not cover Continuous Glucose Monitors.

Make a Sound Decision on Fluoride TreatmentPinellas County dental services for low income families are inadequate, often requiring residents to need "Relief of Pain" before receiving help. Commissioners are willing to spend less than $200,000 to provide fluoride treatment of drinking water. New research from the Harvard School of Public Health "found strong indications that fluoride may adversely affect cognitive development in children". Is there a better and more cost effective way to reach those without access to dental care?91 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Tom Tito

legislation for zipline courses and inflatable outdoor playhousesGoApe is a zipline course renting municipal park space in Indianapolis and other states. There are no safety regulations requiring helmets or padding on the trees. On September 30, 2012, I sustained a traumatic brain injury, whiplash, concussion, neck and shoulder injuries while on their zipline course. Children participate and are at risk, similar to the unregulated inflatable domes rented to families, where thousands of children are injured each year.75 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Suzette Fox
