UC Health, its time to start caring for those that care!Nurses at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center are risking their health, and their family and loved one’s safety to care for some of the most critically ill patients of Cincinnati infected with COVID 19. UC Health says we lead the way, yet they are leaving their frontline health care providers behind. Other Cincinnati hospitals are taking care of their nurses and frontline providers while they take care of you by granting them emergency PTO and paid administrative leave if they become sick or need to quarantine. Instead of “Leading the Way”, UCMC has left its nurses behind to navigate the bureaucratic red tape of worker’s compensation, short-term disability, and the new and complex unemployment laws, while they and their family members are sick and quarantined.2,730 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by RNA ONA

PROTECT OUR HEALTHCARE WORKERSAs workers in healthcare we are here to help, but we are afraid for our lives, and the lives of our families. Give us the protection we need to do our jobs, and stop preventing us from protecting ourselves.1,093 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by HNA Memebers

Governor Kemp & Commissioner Ward: Release nonviolent inmatesAs a public servant in Georgia, I have a concern that we will not defeat COVID-19 as long as our state officials don't act decisively to reduce the density of the prisons, which will help to reduce the spread of a horrible disease both inside and out in the communities. Nonviolent, low risk to community inmates, misdemeanors and felonies alike, make up a large percentage of the prison population. Clemency will reduce the population to lower the risk of spreading COVID-19 inside prisons. Nonviolent inmates can better serve the community by not being part of the spread. They can quarantine with family, then become productive in their local community. Without the burden of taking care of additional sick, possibly dying inmates, the state can better care for those left inside. Additionally, the state will continue to collect money from parole fees, helping to fund other needs.327 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Kelly Reed

Require masks for everyone who works with our foodFood is the one thing we must leave our homes to get, so food stores are the most likely places for us to pick up the coronavirus. Anyone can have Covid-19 and be asymptomatic. The virus is aerosolized into the air on our breath and yet none of the cashiers or packers at the local grocery store is wearing a mask.28 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mary Thomas

To waive for 90 days the People’s mortgage and rent paymentsFor the first time the American people are simultaneously experiencing a health, life or death, and financial crises. The government cannot afford to send every adult a monthly check for $1,200. The nation’s economic problems and fixing our national health system, to cope with pandemic viruses, may not be solved within the next 6 months. The coronavirus, COVID-19, is a unique virus and there are no existing and proven vaccines for coronaviruses. Further, automatically waving for 90 days mortgage and rent payments is the most expedient, efficient, and effective method to provide serious and meaningful economic relief for the people, without the Federal Reserve System, a system composed of 12 private banks, printing more money or the government borrowing money and increasing the National Debt. Recall, the National Debt is really the People’s debt. In other words, the National Debt is the debt that will be inherited by your children and their descendants/posterity. To conclude, ten million Americans have been laid off in less than a month. Hundreds of thousands of Americans are expected to die because our federal government continuous to be dysfunctional, over 30 million Americans have no health insurance, and corporate debt is over $5 trillion. State budgets are about to collapse as tax revenues disappear. People who don’t have jobs do not have incomes to pay income taxes. The Bottom line: the health and financial crisis is still accelerating, and the People need a more direct and sustainable economic assistance: to not pay their mortgages or rents for 90 days.

Justice for Native PeoplesAmerican Indians and Alaskan natives are among the most impoverished and marginalized groups in the United States. Their tribes have often been decimated by the spread of infectious diseases. The coronavirus has caused major problems for indigenous peoples. Because of treaties, the Federal government is responsible for protecting the health and safety of American Indians and Alaskan natives. The year 2020 marks the 400th anniversary of the establishment of Plymouth Colony. What do Americans want to celebrate on Thanksgiving Day?121 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Robert Murphy

Have Donald Trump arrested for his crimes..I;m a concerned citizen who cares about these people, and what he's doing is a felony. The Hospital staff is scared of dying due to The Corona virus, and the hospital staff members walked out of the hospitals and protested that they medical supplies and equipment real bad, and Donald Trump lied that there's a low supply of it until The news media showed that Donald Trump has lied to us and there's stock piles of medical supplies and medical equipment in the ware house, and won't let the hospitals have them right away that'll cause more deaths against the patients and the staff. Which is illegal, and it's a felony!29 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Wayne Tubbs

Meals On Wheels and SNAPThere are too many senior citizens and disabled citizens who cannot get out to buy food, let alone have anything delivered. Disabled and seniors living in rural areas, as well as cities, have been hit particularly hard by this outbreak. They need help. Too many disabled citizens are fighting this alone, and they, along with seniors, are going without even the basic necessities. I am hearing from friends within the disabled community that there is little to no support for them through this. They need help now, not weeks from now, but immediate, tangible help and support. As we fight this together, it is incumbent upon us to ensure that no members of our communities are left behind.2,194 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Stephanie Liss

Bring Brenna BackNorthland Health Center terminated a reputable health care provider with zero regard to our community as well as surrounding communities during a national pandemic. Brenna is an amazing provider who has shown time and time again that she loves her job, works diligently for every patient, and loves her community. We want Brenna back!246 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Lacey Viall

Our Healthcare Workers are being TraumatizedFirst Responders, Physicians, Nurses and all support staff are being exposed to psychological trauma as they respond to patients with Covid-19. Every day they face multiple traumatizing experiences: inadequate medical supplies making it impossible to render the care they were trained to deliver, personal physical danger, relentless hours, separation from their families and in some cases having to make desperate moral choices about which patient receives treatment. They have not been prepared for this onslaught, level of exhaustion and depletion. The authorities have not seen fit to provide training on handling extreme stress nor have the authorities seen fit to offer stress debriefing which has been shown to lessen the damaging effects of trauma. Our first responders and healthcare workers are suffering psychological and moral wounding as they try to save us. Past studies after SARS demonstrate that a significant percentage of them will develop Post Traumatic Stress Disorder as a result. This will likely be debilitating for many of them, their families and will impact our entire healthcare system. We can do better. We can back up the people who are putting their well-being on the line for us by demanding they be provided with well researched on-site training and support. Tell Alex Azar to stop taking advantage of our sisters and brothers who are trying to take care of the desperately ill. Tell Alex Azar to use his authority to demand they be supported and cared for right now.120 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Peter Sternberg

Keep OUR President on airThere are many people signing a petition to silence our president. In the beginning of this outbreak our President tried closing our borders. These same people called him racist. The democrats are trying to push their agendas on us. They are holding americans hostage with their pork filled urgent stimulus bills. They are black mailing the president (ultimately all Americans). They want to record everything and edit and twist what they want too. They cry that he isn't doing anything. What ever he says or does it is wrong. This is not a democrat or republican issue. The antics of the democrats are a disgrace to this country.12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Justin Osean
