• Jason Steed
    Suicide, Depression, PTSD, Anxiety, BI-Polar, Dementia, ADHD, ADD, Schizophrenia, Obsessive compulsive disorder, and Autism are all forms of mental illness. Mental illness is a clear disease that can not be seen.It touches all ages, race, sex, religion, weight, height, Educational status, and finical status. It effects millions each day as well as their loved ones. If you do not know any one with any of the above illnesses you are either blessed beyond belief or you need to pay more attention. But let’s be honest we all do and it’s time to start helping bring our loved ones back to life. Back to smiling. Back to helping our friends. I’m asking for you to help me,help them. My goal is to bring awareness and be a voice of those who need it most. All I am asking is for you to sign with me. Sign in the name of Jason and all those who took their lives. Let me fight for them. Let me fight for you. Time for change in our mental health system #CLEARNATION#mentalawearness#fightforthem My husband recently took his life after years of battling bipolar disorder and depression. The true life of mental illness affects every one In some way or another. Our government needs to step in and make some changes so the lost can be saved. I will walk on October 22, 2019, in my husband's name to the state capital so he and all who have died by suicide can be an example of our government's failure in mental health.

  • Abuse of NY Justice Center
    My petition is about restoring the right of direct care worker in the field of nursing homes and residential homes for people with disabilities by ensuring proper investigative means for case of allegations of abuse and neglect.Such investigative means should be objective not subjective in order to protect bith direct care worker's right and the residence dignity.For, in most cases, the housing agency uses the allegations against direct care worker or custodian to cover up an agency-based bad management or the inabilities of the agency to operate within the frame of their licensure.An issue of conflict of interest does exist for the agency.I and many coworker are victim of such practices and an investigative documentary interviewing of direct care workers anonymously-because of fear of losing their jobs- should validate these statements.Workers insurance in those agencies require a no fault accident _the likelyhood of which is impossible because the direct care worker duties designed by the housing agency leave no room for such things as no fault accident - for compensation of injured worker.The existing procedures and the vey low paying of direct care workers make it impossible for proper justice thereby allows housing agency to abuse of direct care worker 's right as a citizen in cases of abuse or neglect allegations.

  • Legalize Medical Cannabis
    There are millions in our country who survive every moment in excruciating pain. Their doctors are taking their only source of treatment, their opioid medications. Cannabis has been a medicinal plant for centuries, and is only made illegal because of lack of profit to the big pharma companies. Every man and woman deserve the right to treat their pain the way they see fit. Cannabis should have never been made illegal. Legalize medical cannabis.

  • Don't Let Them Take our Healthcare Away!
    I am a Rare disease Advocate. I personally have 3 chronically ill diseases, Sarcoidosis, Sjogren's Syndrome, and Parkinson's. I am on disability now. I have been downgraded from chronic to terminally ill. With the Tax bill and the Healthcare bill they are killing million like myself! Cutting Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security then trying to pass a Healthcare Bill that would make it impossible for those with pre-existing conditions to get health care is absurd and deadly!

  • House Representatives - We urge you to co-sponsor Mr. Takano's Resolution to REBUILD THE VA - NOT...
    Pres. Trump, the billionaire Koch bros. & Republican leaders are PRIVATIZING THE VA to help their friends make billions of dollars off sick vets. Today more than 40% of all VA outpatient appointments are completed in the private sector. Trump and friends propose to send all vets to private healthcare, close the 1,100 VA hospitals & clinics and sell off all the land to developers and private hospital corporations. They must be STOPPED! In survey after survey veterans say they want the VA FIXED Not PRIVATIZED. In a Vets for Foreign Wars survey 92% of the vets who use the VA for healthcare said THEY WANT THE VA FIXED. The want to go to their highly qualified VA doctors & nurses not be lost in the private sector shuffled from clinic to clinic.

  • Senators and Congressmen should have same healthcare as the rest of America
    If they are getting the same health care options as us, maybe they will care about the options. Why do they deserve special plans?

  • Governor Wolf: Cannabis Grow For Senior Patients
    Because Medicare and private insurance does not cover the cost of medical marijuana products, the cost can be devastating for seniors 65 years and older on a fixed income. We need to help our seniors in this situation and giving legal patients the right to partially self supply would be a good start. There will still be plenty of money to be made for the state from the dispensaries.

  • Dental Coverage for seniors through Medicare
    Seniors on fixed incomes like my mom can't afford to have their teeth fixed. Medicare should be covering this. Instead seniors like my mom who have worked most of their lives can't afford to have their teeth fixed.
