Right now, these companies are using the keep open order as protection from any liability for what happens to workers. This is egregiously unfair and is a barely disguised form of what's called "forced labor." Workers should not have to choose between poverty and getting sick and possibly dying. These plans change all of that. Shame on Trump and Shame on these companies for not doing this!

Now 18 years later William is still challenging his conviction. He poses one key question: If an incarcerated person learns that the state knowingly presented false testimony and no evidence proving he committed this crime in order to secure a conviction against him, how likely does it have to be that knowledge of the truth could have affected the jury’s verdict. This therefore violates the defendant’s due process rights and requires the conviction to be set aside. William has now been in prison for 18 years, for a crime I know and thousands of others know he didn’t commit. I am even more shocked to learn that over 10,000 people may be wrongfully convicted of serious crimes each year and that prosecutorial misconduct is rampant in communities across the United States. I am dedicated and determined to help William And it’s why I need your help today. I urge you to join me in asking Maricopa County Attorney Allister Adel, Govenor of Arizona Doug Ducey, and the Arizona Board of Parole to take into account the undeniable facts of Williams case, and provide him executive clemency, justice and a chance to live a normal life outside of the prison walls.

1. Robert Kadlec did not disclose he was a consultant with Emergent BioSolutions and he did not bid out the purchase but made private negotiations with the company to pay $2.8 billions of a vaccine. That was a conflict of interest. Emergent BioSolutions got a ten year contract with the United States Department of Health and Human Services. He also did not note in his Senate filings that he had been a part owner of a company with Fuad El-Hibri, Emergent's founder and chairman. 2. He diminished the role of government experts and reduced the decision making to himself and a few advisers. 3. In 2018, he halted an Obama-era initiative to spend $35 million on a machine that would have made 1.5 million N95 masks per day. These masks would have been very helpful for our healthcare professionals in the frontlines. A recently made contract for $62.3 million went to the company which designed the rapid mask machine that was not purchased as planned. https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/before-pandemic-trumps-stockpile-chief-put-focus-on-biodefense-an-old-client-benefited/2020/05/04/d3c2b010-84dd-11ea-878a-86477a724bdb_story.html

Massage therapists provide medically necessary services for their clients including but not limited to services that: 1. Boosts the immune system 2. Help drain the lymphatic system 3. Reduces pain and inflammation 4. Improves circulation and lowers blood pressure 5. Lowers stress 6. Helps with fatigue 7. And a multitude of other benefits Many of our clients have chronic illnesses and come to us to help alleviate pain and to maintain a higher quality of life. By forcing us to stay closed, you are handicapping us and preventing us from taking care of our families as well as handicapping the thousands and thousands of clients across the state who come to massage therapists for a multitude of reasons. If a client can go to a physical therapist or chiropractor as well as get their hair and nails done (or tan or go to a gym), certainly they should be allowed to make this choice for themselves as well.

For those who play, youth baseball is an “essential” service. It serves a dual purpose of allowing the children to exercise while achieving the much-needed social interactions that they’ve been missing for so long. Even in the most stable of home environments, there are only so many walks that a family can take. Sadly, as many of our children do not live in stable and healthy homes, baseball provides an outlet where those kids can learn positive core values, engage in healthy risk taking while learning valuable life lessons in a safe environment. For these children, baseball provides a “safe place” where they can briefly escape their reality. Certainly, a compelling argument can be made that youth baseball is every bit as important to our children as nail/hair salons are to adults, yet the latter are scheduled to open first. Currently, it appears that the state and local governments are basing many of their decisions on recommendations from the CDC and other national organizations. While that information is important, other (more local) information should also be considered. For good reason, the CDC’s guidance is issued to protect those cities and regions that have been most affected by Covid-19. However, it is unfair to force Lexington youth to abide by the same rules as kids in New York City as Covid-19 simply is not that prevalent here. Allowing our youth to again enjoy baseball could help these children return to a more normal existence. All of the leagues understand that we will have to implement precautions so that everyone can enjoy baseball in a healthy and safe manner, while continuing to practice social distancing. We will happily abide by these precautions if it means we get to enjoy baseball again. Thank you for considering the above information. I am happy to answer any questions or assist in any way possible.

In April 2020, the state of Nevada agreed to relinquish its supply of drugs intended for executions to the pharmaceutical companies who manufactured them, as part of a settlement agreement in the case of Alvogen, Inc. v. Nevada. The state no longer has the means to carry out an execution, yet prosecutors continue to spend considerable funds pursuing the death penalty. We believe that the error-prone nature of the death penalty (nearly 1 in 3 cases have errors warranting retrial or re-sentencing), its bias against the indigent, Black people, and all people of color, its lack of deterrent effect, and the sheer cost of pursuing it should convince our leaders to put an end to the practice before cutting budgets for services that Nevadan's most vulnerable continue to urgently need, at a higher rate than ever before.

This is a once in a lifetime event! It is a right of passage that our teens have spent the last 12 years working hard for. Many students will not attend college, will not complete college or may face a life threatening illness or event. This may be the only opportunity many will have to celebrate their academic achievements. PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THIS AWAY FROM THEM!!

The Navajo nation is the 3rd worse place per person when it comes to infections and deaths from Covid19. And the Federal Government is not helping them for whatever reasons. We all know hand-washing is the key to stop the spread of this disease. But that is difficult down on the Navajo Reservation when the Navajo People struggle daily to get water to drink and cook with. This seems like an important step that could be taken care of quickly since water does not need to be made, stitched together or shipped from China, all we need is a water source that can handle this temporary withdrawal, tankers to transport it and the money to make it happen.

Gyms have been considered an outlet for both mental and physical health. Our facilities can maintain proper social distancing guidelines and monitor all usage every day. Please allow for our local small business (Anytime Fitness) to re-open so we can continue to support our community and help rebuild our local economy.

My small studio is also zoned medical and helps clients/patients with injuries as well as neurological issues learn efficient movement patterns so they can continue to stay active and healthy . Too much time is passing by where they are now going to regress which is not good in the long term.

We need strong leaders in industry who have vision, understanding and intelligence to lead us into the realistic future. This future will not be dependent on fossil fuels. We have a narrow window of opportunity to save the planet, and the humans who live on it. In a state where wildfires are becoming their own season, it does not make sense to cut down more trees to pump more oil out of the earth. Help us toward a different future! Sit down with the City Council, Concerned Citizens, and craft a beneficial use for that land that helps our world! You could become a true leader in the changes that are coming, whether you want them or not. Your model is obsolete. Don't destroy another piece of land just to be proven wrong. Be a Real Leader and Do The Right Thing!
