The price for corporate profiteering is too often danger for the public.  My District 22 Representative Hanna, replaced by Tenney, replaced by Brindisi, replaced by Tenney had advocated in our Upstate NY region of winter snow and ice storms, filled with school buses, family drivers, teen drivers, and first responders, attempted legislation to raise the speed limit on commercial vehicles from 55 to 65 in order to increase profit for business.  Said commercial vehicles would include the bomb trucks which description drew warnings from local law enforcement to the public-safety advocate so describing, that he could be seen as a domestic terrorist.  One would think raising the speed limit from 55 to 65 for bomb trucks would more appropriately draw that label.

Sign PETITION to remind about the danger from commercial vehicles on public roads, if you wish—-

• Bigger trucks have far higher crash rates – as much as 400% higher.
• Bigger trucks are far more likely to have critical safety violations, which are associated with a 362% increase in the likelihood of being involved in a crash.
• Bigger trucks will spew a whopping 55 million tons of additional carbon emissions a year into our atmosphere while crushing our highways and bridges.
• Allowing longer, heavier trucks to spew their carbon emissions would be the same as putting 10.8 million additional passenger vehicles on our roads every year.

Executive privilege applied to investigation of an insurrection seems suggestive of dictatorship—-         https://edition.cnn.com/2021/10/25/politics/executive-privilege-donald-trump-joe-biden/index.html?emci=e0d5dc0b-6a36-ec11-9820-c896653b26c8&emdi=d4189597-7136-ec11-9820-c896653b26c8&ceid=42183         –According to a letter obtained by CNN, White House counsel Dana Remus informed National Archivist David Ferriero on Monday that Biden would not assert privilege over additional materials that Trump requested remain secret as a matter of executive privilege.–end of POGO info–

One believes politics may be a reason if young women in 2021 are unaware of the diversity, seriousness, and strength of NOW.  The social infrastructure portion of Build Back better may be attributed to support for issues that are crucial to women, who bear the burden and the cost of a “government run like a business”.  Consider the integrity of NOW.  Do yourself a favor—–https://mailchi.mp/c1a351838bf8/build-back-better-for-women?e=f9e4231b9e            —

Take Action: We need a federal agenda for women!

The Build Back Better Act is vital federal legislation that recognizes that infrastructure is more than just roads and bridges – infrastructure includes the key services and workforces that we all rely on to live our everyday lives. BBBA will make many vital investments into the most valuable resource our country has – its people. These investments span areas of our society that have long been neglected, such as childcare, and will greatly impact and improve the lives of women and families. Learn how and then take action!–end of now info–
The Northeast is experiencing a Nor’easter today.  The C-Span signal typically goes blank in these events.  After my husband searched through the channels that did come in we were forced to land on Morning Joe.  We did so just as Representative Sean Patrick Maloney characterized Trump as a cheap mistress—-https://www.msnbc.com/morning-joe/watch/rep-maloney-california-was-a-good-test-of-biden-vs-trump-121006661959              –Mika Brzezinski appears to have the gravitas to express the disdain for such language that most women must feel.  But back to Representative Sean Patrick Maloney, D-NY.  After the Democratic Establishment expended credibility by using misogyny during the 2020 campaign season……especially toward white women……one would think they would be released from this immature requirement in speech.  One can only think the automatic reliance on misogyny could be projection.  Perhaps it’s a nod to the religious right who see as intrinsic the station of women.  Be as it may, it is the problem of such narrow attitude, and needs to be recognized as incompatible with democracy and human rights.
Perhaps the Democratic Party isn’t purchased cheaply.  Is that good or bad?  https://www.opensecrets.org/members-of-congress/sean-patrick-maloney/summary?cid=N00034277

Of interest is that Trump who openly expresses his contempt for women is described by a Democratic Establishment politician connected to the money-gathering DCCC in terms of misogyny using the archaic label of “cheap mistress”.  Do these people even see themselves, as they go about the corruption of “running government like a business”.  It wouldn’t matter, if only the electorate recognized corruption and misogyny, and voted accordingly.
In NYS we are inundated with ads telling voters how to vote in ways that may not be helpful for We The People.  Be careful to know what you vote for or against.  To vote yes on these ballot propositions will expand access to votersReceived from cpdaction—–Right now, New Yorkers can Vote Yes on three statewide ballot propositions for a stronger democracy and greater freedom to vote. Every New Yorker should have a say:

• YES ON 1 means districts that put New Yorkers before politicians. New York took a first step towards a better redistricting process six years ago. Now, we have a chance to go further, put communities first, and protect ourselves from politicians looking to divide us as new maps are drawn
• YES ON 3 means no more voter registration deadlines. This will eliminate the nearly two week voter registration cutoff before an election.
• YES ON 4 means you can vote absentee, no excuse needed. No-excuse absentee voting means you can vote absentee without needing to provide a reason.

That’s why New Yorkers must flip their ballot and Vote Yes! Click here to learn more about what’s at stake this election in New York →

WITHDRAWS SUPPORT FROM FINAL PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE–end of lwv info–Murray Bookchin, who founded social ecology, a theory that strongly influenced early Green Socialist thought, strongly advocated the discussion and study group as the first step of any revolutionary movement. A group of individuals meets to expand their knowledge of radical thought and form a radical intellectual community; through the give and take of discussion, can eventually form ideas for next steps in organizing and political activity. According to Bookchin, study groups help create solidarity and a shared language — with a shared coherent vision — for building a mass, organizing, political movement!
Along with Climate Change, many people oppose the imperialism of the USA under control of the Republican/Democratic duopoly.  Use of the wealth of our nation should be to enhance quality of life for We The People rather than for imperialism.  Some people vote accordingly.I———————–That “we are a 2-Party system” is a fabrication of the Republican/Democratic duopoly and spread by MSM.  In FACT the majority of voters aren’t either registered Democratic or Republican.  The censorship about this info must be envied by bureaucrats of the Former USSR and their simplistic style of 1-Party elections.  

Regardless of which character sits in the Oval Office, We The People have work to do to maintain principles of our democratic (small d) Constitutional republic.  Several items to challenge—*We need the integrity of ranked-choice voting so voters won’t feel compelled to “hold your nose and vote”*Censored debates must be stopped.  The Democratic/Republican duopoly pretends to legitimate debates in what is nothing other than another campaign show.  Independent debates run by uninterested sponsors such as The League of Women Voters, must be restored.  (Access www.debates.org to understand the extent of duopoly control).  The so-called Debate Commission is a corporation to promote the Democratic corporation and Republican corporation, not to inform We The People*Challenge and stop gerrymandering that is a trick especially of the Republican branch of the duopoly.*Stop voter suppression by political Parties, and especially confront and stop Party suppression, which is the over-arching approach to voter suppression.  Party suppression seems to have been the responsibility of the Democratic corporation*Promote by law ranked-choice voting, so we won’t be told again, by D&R duopoly, to “hold your nose and vote”
If these issues are handled, our next elections can be honorable.
