SAVE OUR DEMOCRACY - NOVEMBER 8, 2022 - STAND UP! SPEAK OUT! AND GO VOTE!

 

STAND UP! SPEAK OUT! GO VOTE!!! 

Will the US Constitution "crumble?" As equal citizens with guaranteed quality healthcare, women’s control over their own bodies, education of our youth, teaching factual history of our nation and the world, continuous voting rights, increasing the minimum wage, workplace safety, environmental protections, and more… are ALL AT RISK! Is this all in the hands of the state?  Federal law and regulation? Is there a Voting Rights Act in NY State? With the US Supreme Court repeal of Roe v. Wade, has NY taken “action?” And, given the Supreme Court marching BACKWARD to a collection of “independent states” with their own laws – relative to a woman’s choice?  Who to marry? And more? Are we dissolving into “warring” regions, devolving into a separated collection of troubled “tribes?” The point is – has our time passe? Are we bearing witness to the evaporation of our democracy and the elimination of the centuries-long societal “melting pot” of equal integration and inclusion of citizens of all background, religions, genders, and races?

The Republican Plan to overthrow our “one man-one” vote voting system with ease of access to casting a ballot is witnessing 299 out of 569 Republican candidates currently running continue to refuse to accept the outcome of the 2020 election. Or any clear election outcome – unless they win! Right now – in Republican “Red” states, state laws are being enacted that “gerrymander” and engineer “special” election districts, enact unpopular laws against women’s choice in healthcare, open voting, and any election outcome that they don’t like. And, in both Houses of Congress, the Republican budget plans call for cuts to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, repealing the American Healthcare Act, and to keep corporate taxes low and Pharmacy drugs high to benefit those outfits – Big Pharma – that fund their campaigns. Patricians against Plebians. Barons against serfs. Billionaires and millionaires against working families. Haves v. the have nots.

These are simply questions and facts. Should we ENGAGE?  Should we convince our friend and family to vote in their own interests and for those candidates that care about their future and vote BLUE or… simply give up? That is our choice… and YOUR choice to make in 2022. We have arrived at a “fork in America’s road to the future.” Will you choose to stay in the bus stop shelter? Or, will you board the bus headed down one road or the other??? I know my choice… Do you know yours??? Get off the bench and into the game! 

The future is in your hands… and in the hands of your family and your friends. History will continue to unfold. Will YOU help shape the American future??? Or , will you sit on the sidelines or, in the audience and watch the “battle” from your seat? That is up to YOU.

Go ring a doorbell…. Call your family and friends… get yourself and your neighbors out to vote! The time has come to .........

SAVE OUR DEMOCRACY – NOVEMBER 8^TH.
