• Allow Tanning Salons to Reopen May 1st!
    Why is this important? Tanning salons are primarily solely-owned small businesses. We are seasonal based business and unfortunately this is our "peak season". (April - June) In most cases, the income we earn during this period helps suppliment our bills during the slower months. It will be very difficult to recover from our "peak season" losses. The PPP and EIDL programs have failed a majority of us and we are left without any means of income while being shut down. Tanning salons have always prided themselves in being extremely clean and sanitary places. We already practice heightened sanitary and privacy/spacing procedures. New procedures would include: appropriate social distancing in lobby upon check-in and then sent to a private room that has been sanitized thoroughly. Check-in procedure will be a brief as possible. No more than 10 people at a time will be permitted in the salon at one given time. If more than one door to business is present, one door will be labeled "enter" and one "exit". Please consider these health benefits that have been linked to tanning and UV light treatment: -Sustains good mental health -Kills viruses & bacterias -Treats psoriasis, eczema and other skin conditions -Produces much needed Vitamin D which has been proven to help people with: -Vitamin D deficiencies -High blood pressure -Seasonal Affective Disorder -Depression and anxiety ...and many more benefits I encourage you to sign our petition and help us get open ASAP!

  • Tell governors NOT to open irresponsibly or WE WON'T VISIT!
    Covid-19 can spread so easily, AND WILL, and anyone can carry it anywhere. If states reopen without adequate testing and tracing for containment, outbreaks will occur all across the country as people move around again and contact others. For those of us who have been so responsible and careful, the last thing we want is for other states and their policies, and residents and visitors, to jeopardize our own health and families AND further jeopardize health care workers. That is just WRONG! WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER!

  • Shut Down Trump's Twitter Account
    @realDonaldTrump is second only to Fox News as the biggest source of false and misleading information that will lead to deaths in this country on an unprecedented scale if not at least confronted and named. We understand that his tweets could easily fall between the cracks of Twitter's policy guidelines, so I suppose this is primarily a moral decision. Do you want to be part of the problem and go down in history as a contributor to the the greatest and deadliest political scam in history? Or are you willing to take an historic stand to confront the usurpation of democracy by an unstable, corrupt, and lethal president who has chosen Twitter for his platform of misinformation?

  • Tell Joe Biden to publicly apologize for his racist campaign ad!
    Placing the Blame on Chinese people for the coronavirus is irresponsible during a time where Asian people are at an increased risk of violence and hate crimes. Calling for a travel ban is misguided and racist as they have not been shown to prevent spread. Travel bans do not keep us safe from the virus in an already globalized world. This ad only emboldens more ant-Asian bias. After the SARS outbreak and 9/11 attacks, the CDC and DOJ created plans to stop bias and hate crimes. Since the Republican administration has not yet done so, Joe Biden should show leadership by creating and releasing his plan for ending hate crimes and bias incidents during the COVIID-19 pandemic. He should also delete the ad and release a public apology. Here is the racist ad: https://twitter.com/JoeBiden/status/1251582266251243525?s=20

  • Change property tax due date
    As part of the unfortunate COVID-19 pandemic, many organizations, companies, businesses, and even the government and IRS have worked on a plan to allow pushing or changing/delaying the due dates for everything. Why are the Olmsted county doing anything similar to assist? Why not planning on payment arrangements yet? We have been off work for a month and not able to pay that property tax amount at this point.
