Stop making it illegal for controlled substances to be prescribed over state bordersAs a patient of a rare genetic cancer disease I am completely fed up with the system for people who need medicine. I can not get any controlled substances for pain since my surgeon was in one state (only 2 people in the US do the type of surgery I had for colon removal/cancer). I had severe problems where the dose of pain meds I was sent home were not enough. My local doctor could not or would not give me a prescribed for a new pain med and not one pain management center would help me. This needs to stop. If a patient has surgery in a state and needs medicine this should NOT be an issue. Plenty of us suffer due to someone else breaking the system. America needs to take better care of it's citizens. The law that went into place to prevent meds being prescribed over the state line needs to be removed immediately. Even when traveling if you lose a prescription you can't have access to it at the local pharmacy, you are flat out declined. For example, my mother came to visit me and on the trip over her meds were damaged, she went to Walgreens to try to fill it again and they said she had to go back to Florida. This is a drug she used daily, totally uncalled for. This country is going back in time, not progressing at all. Things must change and this is my start!5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Vanessa Truog

LET ME IN MEDICAREMedicare only allows those of 65 to enrole, a form of age descrimination. Uninsured Americans should be allowed to enroll in what is the best health care provider in the world, Medicare. Opening Medicare to those under 65 will increase the base of healthier individuals improving Medicare funding and the Medicare program.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Larry Brooks
