I have not been able to chew on the on one side of my face for several years now. Due to cut backs on the dental benefits from medical and medicare. Cut backs from the previous governor. I am on a fixed income like many people on social security. According to the news we now have extra monies for programs. Why not filter some monies back into to the dental benefits for seniors over 55 to help with bridges or dentures, etc... I have talked to many other seniors like me in the same situation who expressed fears of choking because of missing teeth which they can not afford to replace.

As a member of JONAH, an affiliate of the state-wide social justice organization WISDOM, we need to invest $75M in our 2013-2015 state budget for Treatment Alternatives and other Diversions (TAD). Starting with non-serious offenders, we need to promote drug treatment, mental health care, and other corrective services to make our communities safer and much more just, all while saving $2 for every $1 spent. I have benefited from years of mental health services. Therefore, I believe all have the right for a 2nd chance, a 3rd chance, through corrective services. Under these Alternatives, non-violent offenders stay in their community for true rehabilitation, rather than being warehoused in jails and prisons. They are intensely supervised by a judge, human service professionals and rehabilitation providers. For evidence-based studies that show the success of such alternatives, go to www.prayforjusticeinwi.org.

This petition is about making sure millions of people living in poverty-stricken South Carolina have actual access to affordable healthcare. Relying on emergency rooms and the like isn't nor has ever worked and it is a drain on the economy and the taxpayers involved in making that economy work. Well, No more - we need healthcare reform in South Carolina and sane people to realize that healthcare is an absolute right, not a business to be bartered around with! After seein Meidcaid get rejected in my state and realizing all the people who could've been helped, South Carolina is on the verge of being on the wrong side of history, yet again. Let's not make this mistake. We need to make this a serious issue, and that begins here.

Every vote should count the same.

I am writing because I would like Oklahoma to accept the expansion of Medicaid because I have friends who desparately need healthcare and don't qualify for the insurance even though they are low income enough they need it I myself qualify because I'm disabled but I have friend who has been sick for 3 months and is having a hard time getting healthcare to find out what is wrong and I'm trying to help him but him and his wife are scared to do the tests but don't have a choice to find out what is wrong and help him get well. I don't want my friend to die so I'm trying to help them get to doctors appointments and I just went to the pharmacy for him and they wouldn't fill his prescriptions and he needs them to get the testing done. Please help me and others like me who need healthcare and please let the Medicaid expansion go through thank you very much.
