AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Food insecurity continues for the poor. Now it’s worse as people shelter in place, food must be delivered to them. Many have no cars and locally price gouging is increasing their misery. We have a food supply chain problem & it has to be remedied before people in America die of hunger. Just in time thinking, doesn’t help the people. Remember, this will happen again & all people should be food secure, healthy& educated! Where’s Mississippi’s Governor ? Mayors need assistance & resources to be effective.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Who is representing Healthcare professionals? Why don’t they have the protective equipment they need? Would you want your loved one to die, because Healthcare professionals are inadequately equipped to treat everyone? Vote Defense Product Act & allow industry to repurpose for Covid 19. Use our procedures in place to help humanity in crisis. Cronyism is destructive.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce 500,000 masks coming to NY & Seattle Monday. That’s a start. We can’t wait a year for more, we need the Defense Production Act, allowing other businesses like the Automotive Industry, to repurpose to make medical equipment in quantity. They have the manpower and the factories. Set them up and we decrease our need for time spent idle.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce We have a learning crisis in American schools. Poverty, lack of a stable home , trauma have affected many disadvantaged kids. It’s time to look wholisticly at the problem & provide safe spaces for kids while parents work, including food, shelter & counseling. Invest in our kids & measure their outcomes.

#AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce #Kids lose Medicaid in “red states”, particularly in Texas. Their inhumane practice extends to theft of wages of undocumented workers , though they exploit their skills, when they Build the American Dream.
