The people living in the 4th District of the City of Syracuse deserve better representation in the local government than they have been receiving to date. Poverty, violence and hunger plague the south side of the city and the 4th District is central to the morale of the City of Syracuse. The demand for a civil debate between candidates running for Common Council in the 4th District must come now and the event must take place before the last week in October!

Not just residents of Nevada, but thousands upon thousands of ill people across the Nation and other countries are reporting dangerous levels of heavy metals in their blood such as aluminum, barium & strontium. These metals are directly linked to these unmarked white jets and what they are spraying. How do we know? Air, dirt and rainwater samples have been taken and analyzed by independent scientists and the tests show dangerous levels of these metals and agents (known and unknown). The results of breathing in these aerosol metals to the human body according to numerous doctors & scientists, range from ‘Chemtrail Sickness’; which consists of flu like symptoms, sore throat, respiratory illnesses, brain fog, extreme exhaustion to dementia/Alzheimer's, DNA damage and more. Whether this fall out is a deliberate biological attack, or a byproduct of the U.S. Air Force attempting to control the weather by cloud seeding as they have stated by 2025, or any other malevolent reasons, we have to stop it now, for the well-being of all things that breathe the air!

I believe that doing a good deed is not enough to get people to recycle! Many people are confused as to what they can recycle and how to do it! We need to educate our community and start recycling to save our city! Recycling costs less to taxpayers than trash service. We should take that extra money saved and give back to those in the community that recycle!

Genetically engineered wheat that was never approved for human consumption was found in an Oregon field in 2013 and in a Montana field in 2014. These contamination incidents costs farmers millions of dollars and the unapproved GMO wheat likely ended up in the food system. Now the USDA wants comments on how they control field trials. If the USDA and patenting biotech companies cannot rein in GMO technology, then they must put a stop to open field trials before more incidents like these occur.

One of our best hopes in the fight against climate change is the massive explosion of rooftop solar, which has more than tripled since 2010! But multi-billionaire Warren Buffett has launched a full scale attack on the rooftop solar market in Nevada. Buffett, through NV Energy — a utility that his Berkshire Hathaway conglomerate owns — is urging the Nevada Public Utilities Commission (PUC) to gut the state’s popular net metering program, which pays solar panel owners for the energy they send back to the grid. NV Energy claims that net metering raises costs for other Nevadans, even though a study commissioned by the PUC says exactly the opposite.* But Buffett’s real reason is much more self-centered: rooftop solar cuts into the profits of his utility. If the changes Buffett seeks go through, they would destroy the solar market in Nevada, costing as many as 6,000 jobs and slowing the fight against climate change. *PUC study on absence of cost shifting: http://1.usa.gov/1kZc0d2

I-122 will ensure Seattle stays of, by and for all of the people, not just the ones with connections to wealthy donors and newspaper publishers. We probably shouldn't be surprised the Seattle Times Editorial Board is urging voters to vote no on stronger campaign finance laws. Like its support for Shell oil drilling in the Arctic, like its opposition to raising the minimum wage, and like its support for a long line of failed big money candidates from McCain to Romney to McKenna, the Seattle Times Editorial Board is dead wrong to oppose I-122.

New York is Donald Trump’s home state, home to over 4 million immigrants and 2 million immigrant voters. Yet Republicans here have a recent history of following an anti-immigrant electoral strategy very similar to Trump’s. In elections for State Senate last year, the New York GOP relied heavily on anti-immigrant scaremongering to turn out their voters in competitive races. And one Republican candidate on Long Island this year promised that if he were elected, he’d put "ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] on speed-dial." Some Republican candidates are speaking out against Trump's anti-immigrant comments. Former Governor George Pataki has said Trump is "not ready to govern" and that he would not vote for him, even if he were to win the nomination. But so far, all we've heard from Majority Leader Flanagan is silence. It's time for Majority Leader Flanagan to join Governor Pataki in denouncing Trump’s comments and sending a message that hate has no place in our state.
