I am personally allergic to corn and can attest to the fact that cornstarch and high fructose corn syrup cause me to experience a severe allergic reaction; therefore, their statement is false, misleading, and endangers the lives of the corn allergy population. Many other published articles confirm that removing a food protein does not guarantee that an allergen is rendered hypoallergenic.

I am an insurance broker in Virginia, Maryland and DC dismayed by the lack of options available to individuals and families who don't receive health insurance through their employment. Many of the large insurance companies have withdrawn from the marketplace while continuing to sell the more lucrative employer sponsored group plans. They shouldn't be allowed to cherry pick profitable business while failing to serve the general public.

Because I am fed up, & I am not going to stand ideally by while my friends are near death, due to stress. I Bid You Peace, Louis Aaron, [email protected]

I believe that the fiscally and morally responsible solution to the health care crisis we are facing in this country is a system that is driven not by profits, but by the premise that affordable health care is a basic right for all Americans. Everyone in this state, everyone in this country deserves the right to basic health care, and we should ensure this is a reality in Florida by adopting a Medicare-for-All healthcare system. Add your name to show your support for affordable quality healthcare.

I had no insurance when I was diagnosed with cancer six years ago; luckily I was hooked up with Nashville General Hospital and their exceptional and caring staff. At every level, they put the patient first. What other hospital in Nashville is going to treat indigent patients with such understanding? I bet none. Does the hospital lose money? Not as much as TN has by refusing to accept Expanded Medicaid.

This is mainly to collect numbers at the moment so we can get a better handle on how large this crisis is that has been started by opioid hysteria.

I, like thousands of others, am losing vital specialists needed for ongoing care because of the changes recently made to Mass Health. There is no continuity of care allowed, creating a disruption of care. Not all specialists in the new plan are adequate replacements. The Behavioral Healthcare is almost non-existent, with nothing yet in place for the effective start date of March 1st.

Im starting this petition to help with the legalization of marijuana! Ive used marijuana in replacement to my prescription medication for anxiety and bipolar disorder for 6 years now. When i was first diagnosed and prescribed my medication i felt like a zombie every time i took the pills. I couldn’t function properly, with or without my medication. I smoked weed for fun at the time, and it then started turning into a daily habbit, but soon I thought maybe i can try just marijuana and no pills, and with only being on the pills for a short while i stopped taking them and started smoking daily and was functioning fine with no anxiety attacks and no problems! Ive continued using daily since then and i wouldnt change it for the world. Im a better person in general and much more capable of enjoying and making it through the day. The only problem is, is that it is illegal in Texas and i have to deal with shady people in order to get my medication. I just want to be a normal hard working 9-5er thats doesnt have to worry about possibly getting robbed or shot while trying to purchase my medication; or worry about a cop taking my medication after i just spent my hard earned money on it. I shouldn’t have to put that money in a drug dealers pocket, i should be able to put it into a tax paying business that offers a safe transaction with my medical products, and shouldnt have to get worried or worked up when they see a cop. My medication should not be illegal. There is more medical benefits in this plant with less side effects than any pill manufactured, plus thw only side effects of marijuana are still beneficial!! So why should it be illegal?

I have personal been infected along with close friends and family. Big pharm isn’t the way to go addiction isnt the key to pain or sleep issues. Let’s help our government understand natural is the way to go

Because People are Dying due to misuse and misdirected use of prescriptions from Pharmaceuticals and the insurance companies connected to the Pharmaceuticals and we are forced to self-medicate ourselves with other street drugs or marijuana.

My name is Kenneth Green and I am a disabled American citizen living in the mile-high city of Denver. I am someone who’s disabilities onset around the time that I was born. I can't tell you how much Medicaid/Medicare have helped me. I would be dead without it. My wife is a hard worker, who works two jobs and yet her Medicaid is under threat and we don’t make enough to get coverage from the Colorado Marketplace. My petition is to send a signal to legislatures in Colorado that this issue is not merely about numbers on a balance sheet. This issue is about peoples lives and the quality thereof. Trump is threatening to make overhauls that could cripple the Medicaid program as we know it. I am hoping by getting enough support on this petition, that legislative officials can know how serious an issue this is to the people of Colorado. Maybe this can affect change in our legislature. Maybe our elected officials will understand that if they support a TrumpCare law that their own tenure as officials can be at risk for we have power to vote them out next election. Without these benefits I would be dead and so would my wife. Therefore, I am so passionate about this issue. I joined Move On via the Resistance Summer movement which I was ecstatic about! And now I am hoping to use their platform to raise awareness about this issue hopefully not just in Colorado but the entire United States!

If the administration won't show compassion and allow people access to safer pain relief, the General Assembly needs to. Is it a good use of state resources to appeal the court's decision on including chronic pain in the medical cannabis program? Tell Governor Rauner to drop the appeal and allow pain patients access to the medical cannabis program.
