I had ALL when I was 3 years old and millions of children have multiple pediatric cancers and it doesn't get the noticed like it should. Only 3.8% of funds go Childhood cancer. The White House gets lit up for fallen officers and for breast cancer, why not childhood cancer? Even if it is for one night in September! Our children are worth that.

Our representatives have stopped doing what is right for the American people. Instead they serve a corporate greed machine that harms instead of benefiting American citizens.

On the 16 August 2018 I. Kerry Scriber, did bring myself to the Emergency Room of the West Palm Beach VA Medical Center complaining of pain in my abdomen similar to pain i had experienced previously when i had been admitted with ulcers of the stomach . At approximately ten or a bit afterwards I proceeded to the front desk of 7 A to advise staff that i would be going down to the front of the byilding to warm up. This caused quite the ruw. I was told thati coulc not leave the confines of unit 7a. To be brief I had been for no legal cause arrested. Tne next day i was discharged without any relief of my stomacf problem or diagnosis. I have heard of other like discharges. even one where the transportation driver found the patient incoherent but was still told to take him home

Healthcare in Ohio has many sides, and all sides matter. Out of every 10 Ohioans without healthcare, 4 work fulltime, 2 more work at least part-time. That is 60% of uninsured Ohioans that have a job! What, in the Ohio Senate, is your plan to fix this NOW?

The so-called opioid crisis is not being fairly and fully defined or properly addressed. As a result, many responsible people are being labeled as addicts and are denied the pain medication they need for chronic pain. The chronic pain population is being penalized because doctors are being threatened if they "OVER" prescribe. Non-pain specialists should not be allowed to dictate to and control those who are suffering from pain that can only be relieved by opiates.

Every single state in the Northeast has non smoking bars. Pennsylvania's smoking ban is a joke. Just about any bar that isn't part of a chain restaurant can cook the books to get an exception to the PA Clean Indoor Air Act. Smoking continues in most bars in the state. Having a real smoking ban is 10 years overdue. Please act now.

Families seeking help for autism are regularly denied insurance coverage for physician-prescribed, treatment. The myth that ABA (Applied Behavioral Analysis) is the only scientific approach is simply not true. Families deserve to receive ANY of the evidence-based treatments their doctors believe would be helpful. A “one size fits all” method doesn’t work for every patient... SB 399 ensures that families will have choices.

We are all affected by outrageous insurance rates, and while the rich gets richer the poor gets more poor. Stand for something, or fall for anything.

I enlisted in the US Navy in 1980 and was promised "free health care for life" if I retired from the military. In the late 80s, CHAMPUS was replaced by Tricare and different pricing structures were introduced. The latest proposal introduced in the Senate per military.com would make all levels of Tricare a pay service with increased deductibles. https://www.military.com/militaryadvantage/2018/06/15/senate-tricare-plan-would-dramatically-raise-some-retiree-costs.html

My mother has been taken off of her pain medications by her dr of 28+ years, she is dying and no one addresses how many deaths, suicide's, and deadly strokes since the "Opiod Crisis" began.

President Tumps poison pen has made a "Proclamation", not a legal congressional bill in an uninformed attempt to stop the horrible opioid overdoses, but "One size doesnt fit" everybody. BUT Chronic long term patients need some solution and quality of life now! I can tell you that some of these patients will turn to heroin and OD. The could mix it with cheap fentanyl (dumped in our country by China) and more OD's. The suicide rate will increase 10 fold because we're accused of being 'addicts' and restricted by Trumps poison pen. When did the rule change that doctors (especially pain mgmt drs) can't write proper scripts based on the individual patients needs?? What happened to the Doctors oath that they treat their patients with compassion and proper medications? Write the congress, your governor and even Trump and tell them you agree with me. There IS talk in Congress, organizations, the American Mddical Assn. and others that agree about changing the maximum milligram total of 90mg per day of the MME (morphine milligram equivalent ), go the proper chdonic pain suffers like us, with legitimate documented reasons. We, to be louder and actually make things r ight. DO something, not raising the MME from 90 to 120. The MME needs to be 200+ monthlg, without Medicare limits if required. The rule says to put those of us disabled patients in A group, then cut funding to insurance companies and stop paying the insurance from discriminating against us now. We've been boxed into a corner under this plan. We need help NOW !!! NOT a month or even longer and longer. We are under attack so are you ready to fight for your rights? Pass the word and sign this petition and Google our support groups. The longer we don't get this reversed, the worse it's going to get. STOP TRUMP AND HIS ILL INFORMED RULE and his poisonous pen. Seek out these groups and organizations and support them immediately. My med (have been cut by 2/3rd and I can't survive like this. No quality of life makes us react, but it has to go back the way it was. If you won't stand up, be loud and fight for YOURSELF, you'll likely end up overdosing on heroin and become addicted and possibly OD. You're worth more than that. We must make our voices loud and clear: Give us legit chronic pain sufferers the proper amounts of the medications we need, just to survive and return the freedom of trained pain specialists back to them. THEY Know their patients and their needs, not and not the prick in the W.H. DON'T WAIT.. ACT FOR YOURSELF. Nobody's gonna do it for you.

Last year I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. The Affordable Care Act saved my life, and is why I am in remission today. President Trump's pick has come out publicly against the ACA, in his record and most recently in his speech to the Heritage Foundation. His record against women's healthcare is also clear. Our Senators must listen to us and vote NO on Kavanaugh.
