Dump the Dopes: March 30 Protest at AZ Capitol!

Actually, there are folks protesting out there every day now...these groups aren't going so far as to call for recalls as part of our statewide solution, though - I am. Show up to scream "Dump the Dopes" at the legislature - and carry a sign or chalk the walk about prisoners' health care for me...or at least, for Brenda Todd, Tony Lester, or any of the rest of the people who have needlessly died from neglect in state custody this past year...

Save the Date!

Agenda to include:

Senator David Schapira

Concerned about what our legislature is doing? If not, you better be!

Senate passed legislation to make further devastating cuts:

*** Eliminate more than 250,000 individuals from AHCCCS (Medicaid) - That would surpass the population of Scottsdale!

*** Department of Economic Security (DES)

*** Education


Governor Brewer is also:

*** Recommending CUTS to services that are vital to your quality-of-life such as employment, transportation, as well as freezing AHCCCS (Medicaid) services. A freeze means if you go OFF and need it later YOU Are Out of Luck!

This is how your legislators plan to solve budget problems!!! Doing so at your and/or someone you love expense!

The time has come for you to respond regarding your disapproval of their poor decisions!!!
