My brother is an inmate with a life sentence. We would love to see him get a second chance at life. He has accomplished so much since he has been incarcerated.. We believe he could be a very productive member of society again if given the chance.

Jaiden Locarnini Barajas 13 years old of Reno Nv was killed on September 25 while waiting for the school bus in Fallon Nv. He was ran over by a drunk driver who turned out to be a retired police officer. Trying to flee the scene the man had to be guided off the road by a witness. Jaiden and his two sisters were standing in the yard waiting for the school bus when this man made a u turn and plowed through a yard running 13 year old Jaiden over who pushed his sister out of the way, saving her life. This man was able to go home that night to his family. Why is this ok? Why wasn't something done about this? That is why we want this law. Something needs to happen.

In an effort to jam through a Supreme Court nomination one month prior to the election, Donald Trump and Senate Republicans held a celebration in the Rose Garden to announce Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination. With the proliferation of covid cases among attendees, we now know that this was likely a coronavirus super-spreader event. Since this event, Donald Trump and his high-level staff, 3 Senate Republicans, Melania Trump, the Press Secretary, as well as numerous other attendees have tested positive for the coronavirus. Senate Republicans and the Trump administration ignored the severity of this disease and held an event with no masks, no social distancing, and no adherence to CDC guidelines. Their attempt to grab power and use this moment to take away healthcare for millions has led to a further spread of this infectious disease. Instead of admitting the public harm caused by this event and encouraging those who may have been exposed to self-quarantine, Trump and Republicans are attempting to evade public accountability and downplay the reality of how dangerous this event was by refusing transparent contact tracing. This is a clear attempt to hide the recklessness of this administration and Senate Republicans during a global pandemic and is confusing millions of Americans who see that Trump and his political allies put others at risk and undermine public safety measures--including those taken by senior military leaders and public health experts at the CDC. This is unacceptable, and the first step towards accountability, transparency, and protecting anyone who was exposed--from White House staff to journalists to political operatives--is to immediately begin contact tracing, as the CDC recommends, and publicly share the results so that we can all know who has been put at risk due to this superspreader event.

We, the people of Ulster County, are facing unprecedented economic challenges in the wake of the COVID-19 Pandemic.The systems we have operated within have been catastrophically disrupted and, in the process, we’ve seen just how tragically broken they were. Returning to the pre-COVID version of “normal” is not an option. In our society, electricity and internet access are basic needs, especially with many working from and schooling from home. Individuals and families are suffering from the impacts of Coronavirus—lost income, added expenses from being home, and stress from a global pandemic. COVID has hurt small businesses in dire ways. Business has slowed due to life-saving safety measures and illness, which has caused small businesses all across Ulster County to close their doors. Particularly, utility costs are crushing small businesses, causing them to make the horrible decision between making payroll for Ulster County residents and keeping the lights on. Meanwhile, Spectrum and Central Hudson are shutting down people’s service for non-payment. For Spectrum, First-quarter revenues increased to $11.7 billion. Profits reached about $396 million and their CEO made 98 million in 2016 while we struggle. Central Hudson’s parent company Fortis had 2019 revenue of $8.8 billion and total assets of $57 billion as of March 31, 2020. In the first two months of the pandemic, community members rallied around their neighbors experiencing financial hardship, by supporting the Radio Kingston Community Fund and raising over $400,000 to provide emergency financial support. Of these donations, $107,000 went directly to Central Hudson & Spectrum to thwart shut-offs. The people of Kingston cannot allow corporations to profit off our pain. We demand a cancellation of all internet and electric charges for Kingston residents.

Google for Education team is being incredibly short-sighted in some of its actions and is not taking into consideration the impact these decisions will have on the school districts and technology leaders that advocated for them world-wide. One of the primary concerns that Technology leaders had before leaping to the Google band-wagon is that Google would eventually rip out the proverbial rug and require a G-Suite Edu fee. While that has not happened yet, these most recent actions on Google's part undermine our confidence in that promise. 1. Now is not the time to change pricing on a vital tool that many educational institutions rushed purchase, and certainly not at such a drastic cost. We are in a global pandemic. Be respectful, and don't price gouge. 2. Now is not the time to invalidate the work that many educational institutions strived for in proficiency by pushing teachers to obtain Level 1 and Level 2 and have spent thousands on.

Because there will so many people without homes and will have nowhere to go . We’ve lived here for 10 + years and they wanna take down my building

As Maui County residents, it has become clear to us that the Governor has not done a sufficient job to mitigate and plan for COVID-19. We appreciate that our Mayor and County Council have been concerned and making efforts to protect Maui and keep us safe. We feel the current plan to welcome back tourists is very dangerous to our residents, as the state is not prepared to reopen safely. The single test plan will allow too many positive cases to slip through, and we have already seen how a few cases quickly and exponentially grow beyond what can be controlled or managed with our limited medical and public health resources, including contact tracing. We understand that our economy needs to reopen, but if we do not reopen SAFELY, we will find ourselves in the position of having to shut down again just in time to miss out on the winter holiday travel season. Meanwhile, we risk having our caseload grow and overwhelm our ONLY hospital. Why should allowing mainlanders to vacation here without the hassle of a quarantine take precedence over making it safe for our keiki to have in person school, sports, and extracurricular activities. The current state plan will hurt our keiki, our kupuna, and our hospitality workers.

They are trying to deport him back please I don’t want them to separate my family they are trying to take him back to his country please just contact the officer I beg all of you guys ❤️

Residents signed leases at Vernon Tower feeling safe and confident that there were 24/7 doormen. They help with daily operations, keep the building secure, make sure no packages are mishandled, and add to the overall residential experience. Sef also has plenty to do without attempting to take on those roles as well. This management company is taking advantage of residents as well as their staff. No compensation in rent is being offered despite the reduction of services -- even though we're in the midst of a pandemic, and people are struggling as is to make ends meet. AND, these doormen have been incredibly loyal, hardworking, and amazing individuals who have worked tirelessly to keep us healthy and safe during COVID. Laying them off now is cruel and unfair to them and their families.

This is important especially as we are witnessing upticks in violent racially charged hate crimes. Most recently a Black family in Warren was targeted due to their race by a white neighbor. It is important that Madison Heights takes a firm, zero tolerance stance on hate and bigotry in our city. To call Madison Heights the "City of Progress" while housing a known Nazi club in 2020 seems contradictory. We can do better and the citizens of Madison Heights deserve to live in a city that does not welcome hate groups and allows them to stay.

The Proud boys are in no way, shape or form a hate group! PB's are a men's club full of Proud Patriots that are often the only thing standing between us and Domestic terrorists like Antifa. The Proud Boys have been slandered by the left for political gain, even going as far as calling them White supremacists! The Chairman of the PB's is a cuban gentleman by the name of Enrique Torrio (NOT WHITE) The left needs to understand that it is not okay to slander people just for having different beliefs than they do! On every platform and even in the streets conservatives are being shunned and censored. This is the U.S we have freedom of speech & expression in this Country. We need to STOP the Over censorship of people with Right leaning beliefs and get our Boys the recognition they deserve, this is an important first step!

Steps toward restorative justice cannot be led by the oppressive organizations from whom we are seeking justice.
