A change in the system is essential to helping children like Gabriel who are in desperate need of help. Children dependent on us to thrive. No child should have to suffer in the hands of caregivers.
As someone who had to be rehomed to another family member I am grateful for my county. I am in complete disbelief in the way the system failed this sweet boy and many others. He would’ve been 20 this year. Happy late 20th heavenly birthday, sweet Gabriel.
This is for Gabriel, and every other child that has or is currently enduring the same abuse that could potentially permanently damage their lives. I’ve been in their shoes, justice for those who’s voices couldn’t reach us :(💗💗
Please, no more changing clocks for daylight savings time!!! We need to stay on permanent STANDARD TIME!! For health reasons and safety reasons, especially for our young kids that are going out to school buses and other ways of transportation for getting to school and with DST, they are in the dark, way too dangerous.. Also it has been proven and medical experts back it up that permanent standard time is overall more healthy for the body and earlier morning light makes it easier for the body to awake. Let’s think of our children out there in the dark hours. It’s almost 9am sometimes before it’s completely light out and that’s just way too late.
It is a abundantly clear that daylight savings time was intended for reasons that a no longer applicable to our modern day society, and a HUGE factor of decreased mental health for thousands, if not millions across the United States. There is no reason we should tweak the natural circadian rhythm of our bodies. This needs to be a permanent switch for the greater good.
No more daylight savings! We have enough troubles with our sleep patterns, why further exacerbate this chronic conditions for many Americans? End daylight savings, fall back to our "original" historical time during the Autumn.
I agree on the fact that Forever Chemicals should be highly regulated or if anything removed from food and water sources. People's kids are drinking and eating this stuff you as an individual are eating and drinking these Chemicals. And the fact that all this is coming out now is a big issue. The food industry does not have the right to keep this from consumers and should be put on trial for doing so. These cause serious effects to the human body. And they just brush it off the shoulders as if it were just another paycheck earned.
I have started a petition to establish kratom as a controlled substance after losing my husband to this. Please read, sign, and share my petition if you’re willing:

I have severe asthma. If the crematorium were approved it is highly likely that I would no longer be able to enjoy spending time in the yard outside my home, hiking in Poricy Park, or walking my dog. Asthma rates are directly related to air pollution. You can count on an increase in asthma-related issues in high risk individuals if this is approved. I strongly oppose!
My Dr. suggested to quit smoking I start vaping instead, now the problem is worse. The nicotine content as well as my breathing have become worse, and it’s so addictive I’m having issues with my circulation in my legs and feet and I can’t stop and I can’t stop my daughter who is addicted at age 26. She is coughing up brown stuff and can’t breathe. Please stop making these available they have heavy medals and microplastics and other harmful substances we don’t even know what is in these ! Stop it ! Our lungs and cilia in our lungs can’t excrete this sticky toxic sludge!
