The current doctrine gives clear rights to sanctify murder against an intruder. It does not give rights to a fleeing offender or one that has surrendered to do no harm and is murdered anyway. The castle doctrine gives a shooter the right as the Judge, the Juror and the executioner. All constitutional rights as a defendant are bandished.

There are several reasons why counselors need the ability to get a national license, not one that ends at the state border. 1) Mental health needs are going to skyrocket in the aftermath of the pandemic. Creating an agile, responsive, national force of mental health workers that can respond to mental health criss "hot spots" will be important. 2) Clients, who have started seeing a counselor out of state during the COVID 19 exemptions, may have to start all over again with a new counselor when the exemptions run out if Congress doesn't act. 3) Counselors run into problems when clients who reside in one area temporarily move to another state (think of college students who go to college in one locale, then may go home to a different state). Current licensing laws don't adequately address current reality and our new telemental health capacities. 4) The pandemic has shown us how arbitrary state lines are when it comes to health emergencies. If these rules can be waived now, then surely we can find a more permanent workable solution. Please tell Congress we need a national solution to the problems created by state-by-state licensing for counselors. At the very least, we need a national approach to licensing telemental health providers so when crises arise, we can respond swiftly and in a unified way.

A contract is a promise of goods and services between a merchant and its customers. In this case members will be paying the same membership fees for a much reduced level of benefits and service.

For me and many of these servers and bartenders as well as businesses owners , this is our livelihood. We have absolutely NO money coming in but still have to pay our state and federal taxes along with utilities, insurance, etc. Please reconsider this.

For me and many of these businesses, this is our livelihood and way of life. What happened to pro-choice? By June 6th, it will be over 60 days of us complying and with no end in site. We have the bare minimum or absolutely NO money coming in but still have to pay our state and federal taxes along with utilities, insurance, etc. Please reconsider this. We the people have right to make responsible choices and if you want to stay home, then stay home. That is your right as it our right to run our businesses, support our families, and get our staff, who are suffering the most back to work.

Licensed and established Body Modification Businesses (Tattoo Studios, Piercing Studios etc) WILL NOT present any greater risk of COVID -19 transmission than a Salon, Barbershop or other Personal Care Service. Although we are licnesed under this category, we seem to have been omitted likely due to lack of understanding of our industry. As per our licensing requirements, we are trained in the prevention of disease transmission and are confident in our ability to operate safely. Washington Tattoo Studios were forced to cease operations when closures were mandated on 3/16/2020. Currently, if the phases open as scheduled, we will have been ordered closed for a total of 14 weeks. We should be able to open along side similar buinesses when phase 2 allows it. Our standards of care and sanitation are equal to or greater than those of most salons, barbers, nail shops, as well as retail, manufacturing, restaurants and other businesses already open, and allowed to reopen in phase 2. We just want to be seen and treated as equals and get back to work. Ours, along with other small businesses are suffering. Reopening in Phase 2 will gives us a chance to hopefully recover some of our losses from this long closure and move forward. We have families to care for and needs to be met just like everyone else. We make an honest living, contribute to our local economy and give to our communities, just like other hardworking business owners, contractors and employees. It would be a great disservice to segregate us from other small businesses like ours in plans for slowly reopening Washington. Thank you for your consideration and support.

We're in the midst of Earth's sixth mass extinction — one species vanishes nearly every hour. Opening national wildlife refuges to more hunting is exactly the kind of action that is fueling the wildlife extinction crisis. We should be working to protect animals, not making it easier for them to be gunned down. These wild animals deserve to be safe from hunting in the very places set aside to protect them.

During the Wisconsin primary this spring, thousands of voters risked their health and defied a stay-at-home order to exercise their right to vote. Unfortunately, this isn’t the only story of states not being prepared to hold safe and fair elections in the middle of a pandemic. Every American deserves the right to cast their ballot safely and without unnecessary risk. That’s why we support the Natural Disaster and Emergency Ballot Act of 2020, n. This bill would do the following: Expand Access to Vote-by-Mail: Vote-by-mail could be the only safe and secure option for some Americans. States must offer multiple options for requesting, receiving, and returning mail-in ballots while maintaining the security of our voting system. Expand Early In-Person Voting: While all Americans should have the choice to vote by mail, it is crucial that we recognize that many people will prefer to vote in-person. We must make in-person voting as safe and available as possible. Expanded early voting will allow voters to cast their ballot a few days or sometimes weeks before Election Day. Expand Online Voter Registration: We should not make voter registration complicated if we really want everyone to participate. Online voter registration is a safe, accessible and secure way for voters all across this country can sign up to participate in our democracy. It allows eligible voters to quickly and easily register to vote online from the comfort of their own home. We know that when we knock down barriers to casting their ballot and make voting more accessible no matter who you are, more people -- especially young people and people of color -- turn out to vote. And when we all vote, we create a stronger democracy. Please add your name if you agree our nation must do more to guarantee safe and fair elections in 2020. Stay tuned for more information on how you can get involved.

To Governor Andrew Cuomo, the New York State Senate and the New York State Assembly: We are a group of New York State agricultural workers and organizations that work with us. As we know, we are living an unprecedented moment for the population of the world. In the course of history, human beings have always fought to survive, always looking for the way to improve every day. Perhaps we may lack certain material things necessary to live and develop in society, but something that is indispensable to all is agriculture. Nature mandates that humankind has based its development giving agriculture a very important value, because without it we would not survive. Given the circumstances of this pandemic, thousands of persons like myself ask themselves, why have we been left behind, in these moments when all of us need the support of all. We should not be excluded from assistance when we are part of society. We risk our lives and the lives of our families every day, to produce food for the rest of the population and to help support the economy of the State. It is contradictory that we generate billions of dollars and we aren’t taken into consideration. The voice is not only mine, it is of thousands of workers that don’t have a way to make themselves heard or perhaps don’t even understand the situation, they just feel forgotten. To the recipients of this letter, I would like to you to know that we also exist in society. We are parents, children, siblings, grandparents. Some of us are sick. Some have lost their lives. Others are unemployed. We are essential workers and today we urgently need help. We ask the State Government and the State Legislature to create a fund to mitigate the impacts of the pandemic among agricultural workers who are unemployed or affected by the pandemic and who have no access to federal assistance. California has established a fund to help Californians who aren’t eligible for unemployment insurance benefits and disaster relief, including the CARES Act. The City of New York has announced a fund in collaboration with a private foundation to help immigrant workers who are left out of federal assistance. We ask that we, the essential migrant workers of Upstate, are not forgotten. We too love this country like any citizen, because our children were born here and some of us have spent half our lives in this country and we feel it like our own. We ask the Governor and the Members of the Legislature to pass a measure that includes all the agricultural workers, who have the same needs of any essential worker in this State. We are proud of the work we do. We do it well and with love, and with it we contribute to the greatness of this country. We ask that New York recognize our contribution and be sensitive to our critical needs in this very difficult moment. We urgently request the Governor and the Legislature of the State of New York to take action to create a monetary fund to help satisfy the basic needs of all the agricultural workers and their families who are suffering in this moment and don’t fulfill the requirements for federal help. We All Count Todos Contamos

We need to feed our families.
