We Need to Stay Vigilant, We Need to Show Up and We Need to Support Public Broadcasting!!

I wake up to NPR every morning (National Public Radio). It’s probably not a good idea for my mental health, but I need to know what is going on, and NPR is a station that I can trust! The thought of NPR not existing is so frightening to me, and yet the current president has asked Congress to cut the 1.1 billion dollars that was already earmarked for NPR and PBS  (Public Broadcasting Service.) We need to protect public journalism from a government that wants to suppress the real news and distract us by creating chaos everyday. Please help protect public broadcasting by going to Protect My Public Media and call your Senators and Representative! 

This Saturday, you have an opportunity to show up and stand up against a president who wants to be a king. There are over 1,500 protests planned across the country, and many right here on Long Island! I usually opt for the going into the city, but this time I am staying local. I will be going to Mineola. I think our local officials need to know we do not approve of the direction our country is headed, and we have more opportunity to make a change at the local level right now.  On that note, we need to vote the Nassau County Executive, Bruce Blakeman, out of office! He is a dangerous man, calling up a volunteer militia to deal with any issue he thinks needs dealing with. We could be the next LA uprising!!

Come to a Fundraiser to Support Seth Koslow for Nassau County Executive!

This November, we have the opportunity to vote in Seth Koslow, as our new Nassau Country Executive. He will be a great improvement over Bruce Blakeman!! He’s honest, and cares about community, public safety, education, infrastructure, and the essential services that will improve our quality of life. We will be hosting a fundraiser for him at our home in Old Westbury on Tuesday, July 1st, from 6-8pm. To RSVP, click here;
