Cancer cures are being used in other nations that are saving lives. The US is falling behind due to the influence of BIG Pharma on FDA. If the US is the land of opportunity lets even the playfield.

Senators Durbin and Duckworth and Representative Budzinski You are in a unique position, as federal representatives, to amplify the voices of the people who signed this petition and offered stories of Americans who have been negatively impacted by recent DOGE cuts.   Please use your voice to remind  fellow Senators and Representatives that the cuts represent people, not statistics.    I am not on any social networking site other than LinkedIn, but I wanted to take the opportunity to post a quick story about a recent casualty of the DOGE. (I have kept the details "general," purposefully.)  I hope, in similar fashion, everyone who has a story to share, about a spouse, a sibling, a son/daughter, a friend, a coworker, who has been negatively impacted by the (T)rump administration's "efficiency," will sign this petition, share their own story in the comment section, and  post their story on Linkedin  and/or other networking sites.   E, like many of the purged employees, was in a probationary period, excited to begin work within her department. She, also, was grateful to have health insurance as part of her job, as she was close to eight lkmonths pregnant.  As of today, E is the unemployed mother of a baby girl. As the result of court rulings, she may/may not get her job back. I can't imagine what it would feel like to be newly hired/fired/in limbo and a new mother, all within the space of a few months.    Please share your stories. Flood  the zone with stories about real people, the real work they did, the real impact on communities when programs are shut down. To the DOGE, they are a statistic.The more the impact of recent cuts is shared (talented workers cut, agencies shuttered, stories erased, people denied services) the less the "cutting waste and inefficiency" blather will  stick. It's important for your neighbors  (in person and online) to hear from you. They may not trust the media. Hopefully your voice will break through....and they will hear it!  

I support JPNDC on behalf of Jackson Square Partners' development of Site III in Jackson Square, which will include new construction of affordable and mixed income homes as well as a new community plaza, new green space and improvements to parking and traffic. This proposal includes JPNDC's development of what is now called Building M, which will bring 44 new apartments (100% affordable) to our community. Because this project continues efforts by JPNDC and Jackson Square Partners to bring about the community's vision for Jackson Square, I ask that the BRA grant the necessary approval for Site III development to move forward.

This would be the first time in 32 years that a Democratic debate will not air before the New Hampshire primary. The Union Leader is ready to team up with MSNBC's Rachel Maddow and Chuck Todd to host one on February 4th. The only obstacle is the DNC's so-called "exclusivity clause," which says that any candidate who participates in an unsanctioned debate will be excluded from one of the official six.

Families of all incomes deserve the care and outcomes associated with midwives--but midwifery is under threat in New York City! Do all you can to keep midwives in the labor and birth practices in New York City's public health system.

Hold Governor Cuomo accountable. Join me in demanding that Governor Cuomo debate Zephyr Teachout before the Democratic Primary on September 9th. New Yorkers deserve to hear both candidates debate the issues and their plans for the future of New York.

We need a new tax program to replace the current Federal Income Tax. This new tax would do that simply and cure the present problems with the economy. We need this change in our tax system now. It is fair and easy to implement.

Support the Legalization of Marijuana! Our Economy depends on it! The community supports it!

Stop the Department of Transportation from spraying chemical cocktails in our River area!

We demand of our local legislators and governor Martinez to decriminalize and regulate cannabis. We have seen the economic advantage in Colorado and Washington and we demand the same economic development they are enjoying in those states.
