AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Since the Supreme Court Decision overturning Roe, many Corporations are giving critical care packages to their employees to cover the cost of an abortion and women’s healthcare. Women are involved in interstate commerce , is this an opportunity to form Unions and maintain these benefits and better pay and working conditions and a say in Corporate Governance? For sure Don’t vote for the GOP that overturned our rights. #RockTheVote2022!

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Last week citizens demonstrated for health benefits and services. At the end of June, the Rail Workers will strike for higher pay & benefits. Like the Court defense barristers intending to strike, assistant make 31,000 pounds. Not enough to live on with rising inflation. Teachers may strike next. Inflation is Global and not sustainable, using high interest rates to curb it can’t be our only tool. The poor and middle Class need equal treatment to Corporations. The poor and middle Class didn’t cause inflation and haven’t benefited over the last decade.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Apple employees in Towson Maryland vote for Unionization. They will be under the Aerospace, et al umbrella. Their agreement will be approved by the NLRB. Before the Laws to Unionize were changed , no group wishing to be Unionized could be intimidated by management. Nor would every separate entity within a Corporation have to establish their right to Unionize, every store would fall under the same Union umbrella.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce The January 6 th Insurrection was real. There was coordination between the Proud Boys & Oath Keepers to storm the Capitol at Donald Trumps request. Did Trump instigate the Coup attempt? Yes. Is Democracy safe? No for several reasons: 1. The Fairness Doctrine, holding media accountable for showing both sides of an issue has been overturned. Fox News audience never saw the House recap of the insurrection. 2. There are many GOP States, with Secretary of State willing to falsely certify an election according to their choice and not the choice of the People. We the People have culture wars because not everyone has access to the same information. We have culture wars and an assault on our voting rights. One person one vote has been compromised.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Low power transmission line added to Florida’s Electric Grid, has the power to raise rates. Apparently, there was no reason to build it and no independent regulatory authority to inspect it. The consumer advocate for Florida is a former Lobbyist. The Utility, is a contributor to GOP legislators. No one scrutinized this expensive inefficient operation and the citizens will pay more for less energy! Crony Capitalism is corrupt & benefits only the Politicians. That’s why Flint’s water was contaminated! It happens too often under GOP Legislators. Lobbyists first people, 2 nd?

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Suicides are #1 cause of death for those between ages 10-34! Suicides are up. There is a tremendous need to reduce frontline workers hours of work. Our nurses and hospital staff are burnt out. There are some non profit counselors available and they’re not sufficient to counsel all in need. The demands of Covid patients has shown us the limitations of the workforce coping with severe illness and death daily. They’re fatigued. The remedy, more support systems for a Society that values profits , over the well being of people!

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Are these members of the house living in Reality. Give small business tax credits to set up expensive 401k’s for employee & employer savings accounts for retirement. Where will the extra money to save be found? Are they increasing the Minimum Wage to $15/hr Nationally? Are they changing the NLRB making Unionization easier for Labor? Are they enforcing anti trust, encouraging entrepreneurs to become more competitive , giving entrepreneurs a greater piece of the Corporate pie? Give more money to the Lower and Middle Classy and they’ll happily save! I know, at Ford, Pfizer, Banker Trust , I set 6% of my salary aside for saving and it was matched by the Corporation. As a small but owner, I was told not to take on the Responsibility of a pension fund & paid my Labor high salaries, gave them healthcare and paid leave instead. One day I hoped to share my business with them, but the Recession of 2008 blocked those plans. Many employees of entrepreneurs have not recovered financially. For The Families Act is still required and supported by 70% of the People.
