Despite Tom Price's scandalous stock purchases, Senate Republicans confirmed his nomination in the dark of night and put him in charge of our healthcare, knowing full well he intends to repeal the Affordable Care Act and destroy Medicare and Medicaid. But the fight does not end here. We need an independent investigation of how Price used his position in Congress to make himself richer and America poorer and sicker, and ongoing oversight and accountability to ensure he doesn't use his new position as Secretary of Health and Human Services to enrich himself even more. Since Congress didn’t properly vet Tom Price, these agencies can and should: • Government Accountability Office • Securities Exchange Commission • Office of Congressional Ethics • Health and Human Services Inspector General • Department of Justice Inspector General • Department of Justice • Federal Bureau of Investigation • Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Congress can still make this right - these committees can and should investigate Secretary Price: • House Oversight and Government Reform Committee • Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee Here's a refresher on Tom Price's ethically dubious activities: • When the Obama Administration introduced a rule to make cancer and arthritis treatments cheaper, Price co-sponsored legislation to block the changes. Meanwhile, he had invested between $6,000-$90,000 in the six companies that opposed Obama’s rule. • When a regulation was proposed to improve Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements for hip and knee implants, Price delayed the regulation. Turns out, only 48 hours earlier, he had bought $15,000 of stock in Zimmer Biomet that would have suffered from the new rule. Zimmer Biomet then donated to Price’s campaign. • Despite telling the Finance Committee, he only purchased shares of Innate Immunotherapies that were open to everyone, he actually got a special deal given to only 20 US investors. Four months later, he voted for legislation to benefit the company, a potential violation of the STOCK Act. • In May 2016, Price introduced a law to block changes to Medicare reimbursements to make walkers and hospital beds cheaper. A week later, he purchased $15,000 of shares in Blackstone which owns Apria that sells this equipment– lining his own pockets. • Who knows what else he could be hiding? Since 2012, he’s traded over $300,000 in shares of 40 health-related companies, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis.

Despite Tom Price's scandalous stock purchases, Senate Republicans confirmed his nomination in the dark of night and put him in charge of America’s healthcare system, knowing full well he’ll attempt to repeal the Affordable Care Act and cut Medicare and Medicaid. But the fight does not end here. We need an investigation into how Price used his position in Congress to make himself richer and America poorer and sicker.

Four months later, he voted for legislation to benefit the company, a potential violation of the STOCK Act. • In May 2016, Price introduced a law to block changes to Medicare reimbursements to make walkers and hospital beds cheaper. A week later, he purchased $15,000 of shares in Blackstone which owns Apria that sells this equipment. Apria spent up to $100,000 lobbying members of Congress to support Price’s bill between May and June. • Who knows what else he could be hiding? Since 2012, he’s traded over $300,000 in shares of 40 health-related companies, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis.

These are not normal times and so call for more and better citizen involvement in the political process. PLEASE ONLY SIGN THIS PETITION IF YOU ARE A CONSTITUENT OF TOM SUOZZI. TY.

My 24 yr old son Jeremy Hopper II was recently convicted of Manslaughter 1, Assault 2 and Assault 4 stemming from a motor vehicle accident on May 4, 2016. He is the first person that we know of in the state of Oregon history to be convicted of such crimes when there were no drugs or alcohol in his system. They have blamed the accident on "speed racing" however, there are many holes in the case the state presented. Due to a biased court, judge, prosecutor and jury, he did not receive a fair trial and was found guilty. Jeremy has been an upstanding citizen. He was the manager of a local retail store until trial, had only one speeding ticket when he was 16 yrs old and had never been in trouble with the law. Even though we do not believe street racing is something Jeremy would do, as he never has done it and does not have the desire to race, he would have taken a plea and pled guilty to avoid the chance of measure 11. Unfortunately the DA refused to offer Jeremy a plea that did not contain a measure 11 crime. They did however offer the other defendent a plea of no measure 11, and 60-90 months in jail which is even a little excessive considering the other pleas offered in similar cases in the same county. The other defendent is also known for street racing, has been racing all his life, and in fact gotten a ticket the week prior for going 122. Jeremy was a target from the very moment this accident happened and they refused to treat him equal during any portion from the investigation forward. They had just given a plea deal in the same county in just Oct to a kid that was high, speeding, ran a stop sign and killed two people only 5 years, again no measure 11. We need to reform Measure 11 so good kids like Jeremy are not railroaded by DA's that are out with a vendetta against someone. Take this horrible power out of their hands!!!

The Friends of Boothe Park is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization formed in 1984 to preserve and restore Boothe Memorial Park & Museum. Since its founding, it has contributed nearly $1 Million toward the restoration of the Museum Buildings. In addition, the Friends of Boothe Park has contributed countless volunteer hours in managing the Museum programs, providing tours, running educational programs for local school children, presenting historical reenactments, hosting an annual Opening Day event, and much more. At the present time, we are collaborating with the Town of Stratford and State of Connecticut to restore the East Barn, which will be re-purposed into a Visitors & Educational Center. The cost of this project will exceed $200,000. The proposed Dog Park would be placed right in the middle of the scenic overlook planned for this new Visitors & Educational Center.

The first congressional recess is our first opportunity to speak directly with our members of Congress since Trump took office. I want the chance to share, in person, my objection to this administration's attack on our health care, our communities, and our democracy.

To educate and motivate Californians to stand against the dangerous federal administration.

It's important that our representatives listen to constituents and allow them opportunities to ask questions and take part in discussions. Senator Shelley Moore Capito is not planning a Town Hall Meeting to address concerns of WV citizens. Sign this petition if you think it's time she does. Our voices and concerns matter! She works for us!

Fixing our neighborhood streets. The Garden Villas Neighborhood in Houston, TX. (Hobby Airport Area) needs some serious work. The city only "patches" the issues instead of fixing the core problem. Help us restore our neighborhood streets!

Hundreds of constituents have sought to meet with Lee Zeldin with no success, I am one of them.

Senator Paul has not listened to the pleas of his constituents. We want to demand him to hold a town hall so he can explain to us in person why he is ignoring the will of Kentuckians.

The proposed bill will undermine academic research working on social and racial justice topics. Not only would the creation of new Federal geospatial databases on racial disparities be prohibited, so too would access to existing geospatial information of this sort and the use of Federal funds from agencies such as the National Science Foundation to study such data. As written, this represents a direct attack on the ability of geographers and others to produce actionable and policy-relevant research on racial disparities in this country.
