1. Demand that Congress pass legislation to make zinc acetate and/or gluconate lozenges: - widely available to institutions housing and caring for the elderly - widely available at health institutions to begin treatment for front-line medical staff who come down with symptoms - available to military troops who are at risk in barracks to use for onset of upper respiratory infections 2. Have the government take over facilities to make the lozenges, or subsidize the production for makers of the lozenges so that they are widely available 3. Demand that the CDC issue a position paper on the use of zinc lozenges in COVID-19 and test their use in treatment (in double-blinded studies) in vulnerable populations. This could certainly be done in volunteers.

Rescind the section of the Executive Order which prohibits pharmacies from dispensing Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ).

Elected (or not)Trump has too many problems to assume the President's Office

We, the taxpayers, can no longer pay out massive settlements for negligent law enforcement officers. A mandate on malpractice insurance is absolutely necessary in order to: (1) ensure accountability; (2) encourage best practice; and (3) deter misconduct.

We, the Undersigned of this petition, call upon the Commonwealth of Kentucky's Legislature and its Governor, The Honorable Steven L. Beshear, to OPEN Kentucky's Primary Election Process so that all voters may be able to vote for the candidates of their choice. For too long the primary process has been CLOSED to those who are not considered main-stream or popular with the Political Establishment. This IS NOT fair to the voters, who may not wish to cast their precious vote with any such candidate of established choice. The closed primary election process in our State is both arcane and restrictive to the voter or potential voter who sees or is made to see that there are no choices when voting, or must resign themselves to voting for a Democrat or Republican candidate(s) whom they may not wish to vote for in the first place. And with voting ballot access already so restrictive throughout the United States, and debate criteria often times untenable, the proverbial deck is stacked against a [really] good candidate(s) for elected office. It is time to put this CLOSED Primary Election Process to rest. The Voters of the Commonwealth of Kentucky deserve better. More voices. More choices. Thank you!

Mi nombre es Maria Canet, y soy contadora profesional, latina, ciudadana americana con mas de 30 años de experiencia profesional en Nueva York. Tengo un negocio con mas de 1000 clientes individuales y de negocios pequeños en Jackson Heights, NY. Como es de publico conocimiento, el presidente Joe Biden, en Marzo 11, 2021, firmo una ley que fue el Plan de Rescate Economico ("el Plan") cuyo objetivo ha sido proporcionar alivio economico a los estadounidenses. Un importante beneficio de este plan es el ampliado credito tributario por hijo/a menor. Para calificar para este credito, el padre/madre/ tutor a cargo del hijo/a debe haber presentado sus impuestos del 2019-2020. Tambien otros requerimientos se deben cumplir para poder calificar. Cabe mencionar que lo que se llama "ampliado credito tributario por hijo menor" es en realidad, una suma anticipada de lo que le pudiera corresponder al contribuyente en los impuestos que debera presentar el año que viene por el periodo 2021. O sea, no es un estimulo como lo han llamado sino un anticipo a cuenta del credito por hijo/a que tendran los contribuyentes en el 2022 que califiquen. Como contadora con extensa experiencia y muy amplia cartera de clientes que califican para este beneficio, mi opinion profesional es que el Plan tiene serios defectos como los que se detallan a continuacion: 1) Este Plan al ser un anticipo sera ratificado por el IRS cuando los contribuyentes presenten sus declaraciones de impuestos del 2021, y tambien puede ser rectificado. Los contribuyentes tendran menos reembolso de lo esperado y eso en general genera una actitud de desagrado. 2) Muchos contribuyentes no estan de acuerdo con este "credito" y optan por no cobrarlo porque la cifra no es importante y no soluciona problemas economicos, como de vivienda, y trabajo. Muchos clientes mios han ya optado por esta via. Prefieren no cobrarlo a ver que su credito por hijo/a el año que viene sea notablemente reducido. 3) El IRS va a tener que gastar mucho dinero innecesario en ajustar sus programas de sitio web y otros programas a la nueva legislacion que esta saliendo al respecto. 4) El estimulo no incluye a los contribuyentes que no tienen hijos/as. 5) Muchas encuestas realizadas muestran que el 70% de los encuestados no estan de acuerdo que este beneficio sea considerado como un estimulo porque en realidad es un adelanto o anticipo a cuenta del credito por hijo/a que los contribuyentes recibiran en el 2022. Por lo expuesto, quiero manifestar mi opinion profesional basada en mi solida experiencia con muchos contribuyentes que califican para este beneficio. El estimulo deberia ser un estimulo, no un adelanto.

Previously, patients with a valid medical marijuana recommendation from a certified physician were assured better access to MMJ at discounted rates. Given the indispensability of safe, easy and affordable access to medical cannabis, the latest regulations requiring medical marijuana patients to present a state-sanctioned medical marijuana identification card while visiting dispensaries are bound to create a disastrous impact on the savings and overall well being of MMJ patients.

We call upon the Transportation Committee to recommend to Brookings City Council that (1) it reject the state’s proposal to widen 6th Street from Medary to Main, and that (2) improvements be made to the street while maintaining four lanes at its current width. Note: Please only sign this petition if you live in or around Brookings, South Dakota.

Mr. & Mrs. Silvia Reyes are proud Arkansans, parents of five American-born children and DACA-mented son, active community volunteers and well-respected, local business owners of Acambaro's Restaurant in Rogers. They recently received letters from ICE calling on their deportation on November 5th. Please support Arkansas family values, and keep the Reyes' together by using prosecutorial discretion and asking ICE to stay their deportations for one year. These precious additional months would allow them to make time-sensitive arrangements for an ill parent, begin residency petitions (through their daughter who turns 21 in a few weeks) and allow them to continue to give back to the state and country they so proudly call home. All of the Reyes' children need them, especially their two youngest children who are under the age of 10. Arturo and Silvia are NOT a security risk to Arkansas, and instead are an integral and positive influence on their family and community.
