Too many dads's end up with little to no parenting time because of divorce.

Everyone deserves a fair trial, and an unbiased jury. For members of the LGBTQ of Florida, that repeatedly Has not been the case. Prosecutors in the 4th Judicial Circuit are fighting against bringing possible religious beliefs to light in cases where they may have influenced the verdict against an LGBTQ community member.

Don't sacrifice the stability of our nation's economy and infrastructure by cutting funding to higher education! A better-educated society contributes its intellectual wealth to a stronger economy! Vote "Yes" on the Student Loan Fairness Act of 2013 presented by Congresswoman Karen Bass (CA)!

Wells Fargo CEO John Stumpf, we demand you: * Keep borrowers like Bernetta Adolph in their homes * Deliver on promised relief through full implementation of AG settlement and other programs. * Broadly implement loan modifications by resetting mortgages to fair market value. * Restore our stolen wealth by ending predatory practices, ending discriminatory lending, and paying your fair share of taxes.

Jamie Dimon, JPMorganChase CEO: End all demands for tax deductions in this settlement. Our tax dollars will not go to subsidize Chase’s role in causing the Great Recession, creating the foreclosure crisis, and stealing our homes.

Urge congressional hearings on the Impact of Migraine and Headache Disorders, especially before the Primary Health and Aging Subcommittee of the Senate HELP Committee and/or before the Health Subcommittee of the House Energy & Commerce Committee, prior to the close of the 112th Congress (January 2013).

The impact of separating bi-national couples for over 10 months during the pandemic has been devastating for families. Parents have missed the birth of their children while isolated abroad. Partners have passed away while being denied reunification. As time passes, aging and ill partners' abilities to have children, get married, and build a life with their partners diminish. Sign this petition to urgently request the Biden administration to support the policy proposals of the Giumarelli-Metivier letter, which requests safe humanitarian travel exemptions for unmarried bi-national couples and K-1 visa applicants to address the irreparable harms, familial life disruptions, financial burdens, and psychological stresses they have endured. The letter can be read in full at https://krishni.medium.com/the-giumarelli-metivier-letter-2b76cec18129. An accompanying Annex is available at: https://krishni.medium.com/annex-to-giumarelli-metivier-letter-a55e3eb62dbd. *As always, we welcome any safety protocols that the administration may require for entry into the U.S., including COVID-19 testing upon departure and arrival, mandatory quarantining (subject to check-ins and fines), social distancing, mask mandates in public, submitting quarantine locater documents, and vaccinations (once widely available).*

Nominate Kamala Harris Vice President.

There are millions of people in the U.S. that had to go to 25 or more specialists to finally get diagnosed with Chronic Lyme Disease bc NONE of the doctors are properly trained in Lyme, and they use in accurate testing. Is this the doctor's fault? No....It's the CDC and IDSA's fault. The IDSA and CDC guidelines for the treatment and diagnosing of Lyme has been proven time and time again to be highly flawed and inaccurate, and yet they haven't changed it! The CDC and IDSA claim that Chronic Lyme doesn't exist based off of THEIR OWN studies, while completely ignoring over 700 peer-reviewed studies showing Chronic Lyme exists. The CDC and IDSA say that Late Stage Lyme patients can be cured with 4 week of antibiotics, and I'm sorry but that statement is beyond RIDICULOUS. If that were true, why are so many people still sick and protesting in front of the White House?! People are being undiagnosed and/or misdiagnosed as everything from Lupus, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, Arthritis, Alzheimers, etc AND even dying due to Lyme every single day due to there being zero Lyme training for doctors. How can a doctor diagnose and treat you, yet alone know what to look for, if they haven't been trained in Lyme?! Every single doctor needs ILADS training in Lyme due to Lyme being able to wreak havoc on every single organ in the body. In addition, these doctors need to be trained in parasites, fungi, and coinfections such as Mycoplasma, Babesia, Bartonella, EBV, Cytomegalovirus, HHV6, etc. because Lyme has never been JUST LYME... it's a multi-systemic disease! In addition, doctors need to be using the Igenex test. Currently, doctors are using tests like (lab corp and quest) which are beyond inaccurate and catch only 30% of cases thereby giving most people false negatives. Lab Corp and Quest tests only look for a few strains of Lyme. This in itself does not make sense to be using inaccurate tests when there are far more accurate (CLIA approved) tests available that actually test for all 300 strains of Lyme rather than just a handful of them! Instead of state medical boards punishing docs for treating Lyme patients, maybe we should start punishing the ones who do not test for it. Doctors need to realize that Lyme is not just in the north, it is all over the place and lots of it! I mean, birds travel and we fly on planes, so it's pretty ridiculous to think that ticks would remain in one area. In addition, individuals of the CDC and IDSA need to be investigated for corruption. By corruption, I am referring to their monetary conflicts of interest with insurance companies, lab testing companies, patents, and pharmaceutical companies when it comes to Lyme Disease. One last thing, once the CDC and IDSA finally admit that Chronic Lyme is real, the insurance companies need to start paying for some of our expensive treatments. WE are not a small group.... WE ARE HUGE and growing in numbers. WE are not going anywhere. LYME IS THE NEW AIDS!

My email to the BOE, sent a few moments ago: Dear Members of the MarlboroCentralSD in NY Board of Education, On February 23rd of this year, I sent an email to all of you. I received no response, not even a polite acknowledgement, from a single one of you. In light of that, I respectfully request that this letter be read aloud and made a part of the public record at the BOE meeting scheduled for tomorrow evening, April 11, 2014. I must encourage all of you not to adopt the budget that was put forth to the community last Thursday, April 4th. “Adopt” is defined as “to vote to accept.” I don’t understand how you can accept this budget. Certainly, you must know that this community cannot and will not accept this budget. You might say, well, we don’t like this budget, but we have to accept it. And I would disagree with you. I would say that by accepting it, you are endorsing it, supporting it. Please don’t do that. How can you do that? It would make much more sense for you to reach consensus on the fact that a 25% increase in the tax rate this year, in addition to the 37% increase we soaked up four years ago, plus anticipated tax rate increases of 7%, 5%, and 5% over the next three years places an intolerable burden on the taxpayers of this town. Then, if you truly believe you have done everything you can to both preserve residents’ income and defend the educational program, why not at least make an attempt to take back the power on the taxpayers’ behalf. Write to the governor and our other elected officials, the NYS Commissioner of Education, and the NYSSBA, and contact the media. Tell all of them that under the circumstances you cannot put forth a reasonable and acceptable budget to the Marlboro community. Tell them that the taxpayers in Marlboro feel powerless, and that you feel your hands are tied, that you’re unable to do better. Tell them that we are about to be mowed down by a speeding school budget locomotive, powered in large part by the legislative brick wall known as the Tri borough Amendment, a patently unfair law unique to only New York State. Tell them that the teachers of our district could have and might have been our heroes in our time of desperate need, if they had offered concessions and made a meaningful contribution to decreasing the immense tax burden increase, but that their union representatives stubbornly refused to even consider it. Tell them that you cannot in all good conscience push a budget that is unacceptable – and in the long run unsustainable – on the very people who elected you to work on their behalf and look out for their best interests. Then, after you have written the letters and spoken to the media and made your case – our case – repeatedly, in plain English for all to hear and understand, only then tell us you’ve done the best you can do. You represent the collective will of the people in this town. If you haven’t heard the people by now, then you simply haven’t been listening. I hope we can agree that it is your duty to represent the taxpayers; by extension, we should be able to agree that you should not adopt this budget.
