CAUSE HE DOES BAD AND MEAN THINGS HE CELEBRATES THE PORE PEOPLE WHO LOST THEIR JOBS. AS A HUMAN BEING, I'M SAD THAT OUR PRESIDENT IS BEING MEAN TO VERY GOOD PEOPLE WHO HELP OUR COMMUNITY.

IN DIFFERENT PLACES REALLY BAD THINGS ARE GOING ON.

This is important because its a step for black people to get equality and to get justice for all of the innocent Black people that were killed due to police brutality.

Qualified immunity is a legal doctrine that shields police from legal liability for murder, violence, and other misconduct. Qualified immunity must end now, for the memory of George Floyd--and countless others who've suffered and died at the hand of lawless police brutality. The police should be accountable to, not immune from, the same laws they enforce. They should be accountable to, not immune from, their violation of our constitutional rights. Federal law ending qualified immunity will deter police violence by making law-breaking police officers accountable for their actions. It will give the public--who both fund the police, and whom the police are supposed to protect and serve--legal recourse for police violence. Please take action to end qualified immunity for police now.

If we want to change the epidemic of mostly black men being murdered by police, we have to take strong action and this proposal is just one change that is needed.

FSUSD has known about sexual abuse allegations/reports and have not acted to the best of their ability. They failed to meet their own guidelines and in return—left victims facing their abusers daily.

These kids have been robbed of so much already their senior year due to COVID-19. Please don't take this from them as well. They deserve this!!! They need this!!! Please sign our petition so our kids can be recognized the way they deserve to be!!! Thank you!

Countless families have been torn apart by ICE. Our country cannot continue to separate families, warehouse people, and perpetuate nationalist violence. Immigration detention is always immoral, unnecessary, and unjust. But with COVID-19, it is also deadly. After multiple deaths of inmates, nurses, and corrections officers since the pandemic started, New Jersey's jails and detention centers are obviously at extreme risk of spreading COVID-19 and infecting those inside. Social distancing is not substantially possible there. Reports indicate that supplies like soap and quality food are sometimes inaccessible. These are incredibly dangerous places. Justice means removing the most violent and dangerous law enforcement operations from our communities, and we need to start right here in Essex County. Tell Essex County Board of Freeholders to vote YES on a resolution that releases every person detained by ICE in ECCF.

Wearing the flag or celebrating it, putting it on your car window or coffee table in your house, it's a reminder to everyone, to every guest, to every person who sees it, black or white, that you are a stakeholder in the Confederate history of the South, and therefore the defense of slavery and racial prejudice. No one is immune to this. Even to say that it’s about heritage not hate, is to recognize that for many people it is inextricably about hate. You can’t filter out the racism and leave what’s pure and historical in the flag, because that purity doesn’t exist. Some things are so primitively stained or tarnished by history that that can never be set side. The flag is a perfect example.

We put our lives and our families lives at risk with minimal protection. When we were asked to wear the same dirty N95 mask for a week. Instead of quitting we showed up. We did not have to risk our lives and we did. Even after our colleagues have fallen ill or dying we kept showing up to fight this deadly disease. When our coworkers are unable to obtain worker’s compensation due to contracting COVID we still showed up. We could of walked away anytime and gotten another job when this pandemic was over and we STAYED. https://www.forbes.com/sites/terinaallen/2020/04/17/senate-proposal-up-to-25000-pay-raise-for-these-essential-workers/ Some facilities withhold funds and not pay frontline workers. Tired of seeing big corporations receiving bailout and not passing it along to individuals. If there is hazard pay the monies should be given directly to frontline workers.

Because the results aren’t true. Because Mr Floyd died of asphyxiation at the knee of Officer Chauvin. Because a heinous murder was committed in the name of racism and the medical examiner’s office in Minneapolis is culpable. Because even in death Mr Floyd is maligned, misrepresented and disrespected and that is unspeakable.

Phoenix Section Zoning Ordinance 660 - Four Corner Overlay District restricts use for a Mortuary without obtaining a special permit; residents helped to develop this Overlay to prevent certain businesses from operating in the community. The City of Phoenix has invested over 50 million dollars in the revitalization of South Phoenix Village, which would make it irresponsible to allow a business that falls outside of the criteria of the Overlay. The Four Corner Sites need retail businesses, which are desired by the residents. Clean up of this area needed to take place before this area could attract these businesses. The diverse population of new homeowners who have invested in 30 year mortgages in a new home deserve respect and the utmost consideration through denial of this special permit request for a mortuary. I am one of hundreds of residents that are requesting that respect and consideration. We have nearly 30 churches within a couple miles radius of this location to extend chapel services, we have the Broadway Heritage Resource Center within a block of the building to hold community meetings, and most importantly we have nearly 30 funeral homes within less than 10 miles of the proposed building. Please stand with me by signing this petition of opposition. Let’s make our position as a community clear, instead of allowing individuals outside our community make decisions that benefit their endeavors. Together we have a powerful voice!

In light of current events it renews the need to call for police body cameras. We, the undersigned, join Nassau County Legislator Carrié Solages and Legislator Siela Bynoe in urging Nassau County Executive Laura Curran to make body cameras a priority in ongoing police union contract negotiations. Body cameras are used by law enforcement throughout this country and creates transparency by providing a factual record of what occurred in all encounters between Police Officers and civilians. We understand that Minority Leader Abrahams and Legislators Bynoe and Solages secured funding for a PILOT program for body cameras in 2014, and that this program was blocked because the former County Executive had not included the police unions in the conversations about the program. Therefore, we respectfully request that Nassau County Executive Laura Curran and her administration make body cameras a part of the ongoing collective bargaining negotiations with the Police Benevolent Association and Superior Officers Association.
