AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce China’s war footing in the Solomon Islands unsettles all Islanders in the Region. They don’t want a Military presence when king tides and cyclones are making their Island homes inhabitable. The Islanders are losing their homes to global warming and rising sea levels. The salinity in the water is making life unsustainable. Colonialism is the past. To have a future where 70% of the planet isn’t destroyed, we must refocus on Climate Change and curbing Carbon Emissions and Pandemics

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce The Economic toll: Ukrainian economy to shrink 50% , Russian economy 10%, the West hits inflation and supply chain disruptions & the global economy faces famine. If we’re lucky Germany will start cutting oil and gas soon, cutting into Putin’s profits . The price of crude fell below $100 barrel. Good for everyone. Don’t cut gas taxes, go to Public transportation & renewables instead. No need to pursue fossil fuels

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce As Unions gain ground in America, their pro Democracy stance is growing to. They got out and helped citizens register in key battleground states where TrumpsGOP threatens to overturn 2020 electoral count. Unions are gaining adherents. Starbucks Reserve in Chelsea, NYC just Unionized. NYC is open to Unions. Our unemployment rate is around 7.9% , twice the National average. Why? There is a need for IT and qualified managers, yet rewards only go to the Top Earners. It’s time to put innovators back to work!

TheVoiceOfJoyce When large investors divest from the major Fossil Fuel Corporations & Fossil Fuel Subsidies are cut, then we’ll know Government and Pension Funds are serious about preserving our environment. Then we’ll know pollution matters and they are interested in healthy people and a bio diverse planet. Money talks. That’s how we the People will know leaders of Industry & Government are ready to stand for our our survival. If big money refused to invest in TRUMPSGOP on the Federal and State levels, we’d know they’re interested in safeguarding our Democracy! Money talks.

TheVoiceOfJoyce Gun violence on the rise 13-15% , police oppose new Legislation from Republican States that would allow Permitless rights to carry a weapon. No Laws for background checks. No Laws to keep weapons out of the hands of Criminals, the abusive or mentally unstable. A new way to avoid background checks and destroy the Public’s safety. The moderates of the Republican Party have been pushed out and ignored. The majority of Americans don’t stand with this group. I urge those in Congress who cherish Ddmocracy, to stand with the Majority of citizens and demand Fundamental Change to Gun Violence & Voter Suppression, it is your Constitutional responsibility to protect us and our Democracy.

TheVoiceOfJoyce With 83,000 complaints against the NYPD, why would we expect Parole officers to be tolerant. 7500 parolees are returned to prison for minor offenses. The cost is $690 Million. It’s cheaper to take the arbitrariness out of supervision & give Parolees counseling and some slack. Support the Less is More Bill in NY State Senate, sponsored by Senator Benjamin & watch, Decency Pays.

TheVoiceOfJoyce Don’t let Trump dissuade you from voting by mail or dropping your ballot in a drop box. They’re safe. Poll workers are needed in Pa, Philadelphia, Georgia & Michigan. Devote your time, this Election needs your vote overwhelmingly. Support the local ACLU’s in these States too. They’ll educate poll workers and your State will DumpTrump &DumpTrumpsGOP. I absolutely support government by the People for the People. It’s doable. Be involved,make a plan Register, Vote & if able, become a poll worker in your State. Everyone’s Vote counts. Take control of your future & the future of your loved ones!
