Urgent: college loan debt

lundi 1 mars 2021 à 01:00

US citizens: call on Congress to cancel Americans' college loan debt.

I entered this text.

I advocate cancelling student debt for undergraduate education, and for postgraduate education except when it is for a professional degree and the person has or will become employed in that profession. We don't need to forgive doctors' and lawyers' expenses for medical school and law school.

Urgent: enact VOTERS act

lundi 1 mars 2021 à 01:00

Residents of Massachusetts: call on Massachusetts legislators to enact the VOTERS act and require public meetings to be accessible virtually

I added the following text:

I ask you push to amend HD2828 (Garlick/Lewis) in two ways:

* To require virtual meetings to be accessible by phone as well as by internet.

* To require the state to use its own servers for this purpose, rather than any company's servers, starting no later than June 2023.

The companies such as Zoom that offer the use of their servers for virtual meetings impose their own rules about what may be said and who may participate. It is intolerable for any governmental activity or state entity to be covered by commercial censorship, so the state must have a firm policy not to use commercial servers for its meetings except in an emergency. However, recognizing that the state will need time to set up its own facilities, I propose a transition period of two years before the requirement to use them becomes effective.

Urgent: Rochester thugs investigation

Sri Lanka Risk

Philadelphia's new district attorney

vendredi 26 février 2021 à 01:00

Philadelphia elected a new district attorney, who supports criminal justice reform. Philadelphia thugs want to bring back the old district attorney, for whom a thug could do no wrong. So they blame all crime on the new district attorney.
