I Am A 45. Yr old Disabled Activist Who is a Christian and a Democrat. I love Jesus Helping Others Politics Sports Music Writing and Giving My Opinion !

Help Advocate Carol Jones

My Friends I have another Medicaid Expansion story to tell you about in Florida.

This Time it involves My Friend and Super Advocate Carol Jones. Carol works with the Didabled. She is Very passionate about it. She started as a Child as an Advocate by defending A Boy with a Bad Leg in school

Soon She was a Professional Care Attendant And CERTIFIED NURSING ASSISTANT . She spent her whole life Helping others. Especially the #Disabled who she has a Huge Heart For.

Carol works with NATIONAL ADAPT – The Non profit organization who advocates for Disabilaty Rights. She has been arrested several times as an Advocate on this cause. Last Year Carol was with The ADAPT Family in Wasington D.C. Fighting to #ProtectOurCare. And She and ADAPT Won !! Saving Access to Affordable Quality #Healthcare For 52 Million Americans. Thank You ADAPT Family and Carol for keeping this Advocate’s Dream of #ExpandMedicaidNow in Fl alive without them No one would have Healthcare in America except the Wealthy or Those over age 65.

Now Carol Retired with her Husband Doug to Florida. She is building the Florida ADAPT Chapter of which I am A proud member.

But because She retired early Carol has No #Healthcare. And She Needs it as She lost hearing in one ear and needs medical help for other issues.

Again Florida Governor Rick Scott (R) and The State Legislature cause undue hardship . By Not taking Federal Medicaid Expansion Funds. There are 1 Million Plus in Fl #Uninsured including myself and Amy Rodriquez of **

**A Mothers Fight to #ExpandMedicaidNow Part 1-4 Featuring Amy Rodriquez

Carol Jones Deserves Better America!! She served Others selflessly . Why should She retire and Go without access to Affordable Quality #Healthcare?? This is Not Just Fair or Right !! To Make someone who worked their whole life suffer. This is Creul and Inhumane to do this to the elderly or retirees .

So For Carol We Now Must #ExpandMedicaidNow. The #Impact will be giving a Lady who gave so much to others the Dignity She deserves . So much in Fact There is even A Carol Jones Award named for her. Given to Nurses and Caregivers who exemplify what Carol has done to help others. FYI When President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (D) created Social Security and President Lyndon Johnson (D) Created Medicare and Medicaid They were intended to give the old poor Disabled and Sick A Dignified Retirement . So why Shouldn’t Carol Jones and others like her have This America ??

Thank You God Bless

What Kind Of America Are We

My Friends I Am Saddened and Disgusted by what I See. As An Advocate I Fight For All To Have Dignity.

But Some I see Do Not Want That. That Is Not The America I Love and Believe In.

The America i know : is A place that gives all A chance and lifts those who are down Up.

This NEW AMERICA is Full of Hate Ignorace and Division

For Example People Who are sick like me and my Friend Amy Rodriquez. We are still denied Access To Affordable Quality #Healthcare. Due to No Medicaid Expansion in Florida.

Now A new Wrinke in the puzzle. If you have a Prexisting Condition You Will be denied Coverage . Meaning I have No shot at Healthcare. 1 Million #Uninsured in Florida also now will Because many needing Meficaid are Sick and Will Die.

What Kind Of America does this ??

What Kind Of America Charges Robber Barron Rents. Forcing Working People, The Elderly and Disabled to become near Homeless. This is A Situation I personally had lately. I had to Relocate to St Petersburg Fl because Rents in Miami Dade were so High. I had to give up serving a community I love because We Could No Longer Afford to Live There. And it was Heartbrskung

What Kind Of America Does This ??

What Kind Of America

What Kind Of America Jails Immigrant kids, and Rips them from Their Mothers Arms ? #KeepFamiliesTogether #WhereAreTheGirls #WhereAreTheChildten

The Answer

A Sick Heartless Godless one. Yes Godless one !! Those Claiming to know Jesus and using the Bible to Justify these evil deeds.

For Example Matthew 25 : The Sheep and The Goats v 31-46

Below V 34 – 36

When i Was A Stranger Did You Invite Me In ? When I Was Sick or in Prison Did You Visit Me ?

To Summarize You have two choices according to Jesus . Either Help or Ignore.

Those That help are Blessed those who ignore doomed.

The America I know Helps others like Jesus said to.

This is How it should Be in America. Not What President Trump , A.G. Sessions and others are Preaching. They are distorting The Bible to advance a Hateful agenda.

Jesus said to Welcome not banish. By the way A.G. Sessions : The Walls Were Built Before Jesus.

Nowhere does Jesus endorse this In The Bible.

In Short what they are saying and Doing. Is Not Christian or American .It is based on Hate . Harassing : Minorities, Immigrants and The Poor and Sick is Not Christian. It is of The Enemy.

Because I have also as a Disabled adult had a bad experience in a Hotel recently and I posted on Facebook about one someone else had.

In Short What Kind Of America Are We

Full of Hate ? Or Full of Love ?

See The memes I made below and You Decide ?

Thank You All

How Many

My Friends I Am Both Saddened and Inspired by the Events in Parkland Florida. Approximately 25 Miles North of My Home in Miami Gardens Fl.

I Am Sickened and Saddened by The Loss of Life at Marjory Stoneman High School. But inspired by Young Activists Emma Gonzalez and David.Hogg. They are Our Future and We must listen to Them and Now. Guns Wound Kill and Destroy Lives Forever.

So I Wrote A Poem For the First Time in 23 Years

The Title is : HOW MANY

Dedication To : #Parkland #SutherlandSprings #LasVegas #Pulse #SandyHook And All who lost someone to A Gun

How Many Tears Must We Cry

How Many Times Must We Say Goodbye

When Someone We Love Dies

How Many Times Must We Sigh

And Want To Cry

How Many Kids Must Die

How Many Moms and Dads Will.Cry

How Many Americans Will Cry

WHY WHY WHY !!

When Someone They Love Dies

Too Many Tears

Too Many Fears

Too Few Years

How Many Will Say #Enough

How Many Will Rise Up

And Say

#Enough

Before Our Future Dies

Before It Begins

How Many

Will

Cry

America I Hope This Inspires Change ? Do You Want Our Kids To Live? Change Must Happen Life is Too Precious. I Have a Meme I made of The Poem Enclosed in the Blog Feel Free to Share It Please. (BELOW)

Before I Go Thank you Emma Gonzalez and David Hogg Your Courage Gives This Advocate Hope and Inspiration.

#Impact Speaker Ryan Here is What $1.50 Really Buys You

My Friends Great to be back with you again. I have a response to U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Paul Ryan (R) Wisconsin. On His Idiotic tweet that a Woman was better off with a $1.50 A Month Pay Raise. Not An Hour, Day, or even week.

Hey Speaker Ryan You can not join Costco for $1.50. Not only that but you Can Not Pay :

Rent, Mortgage, Car Payment or Lease Any Type of Insurance. Or Pay for Utilaties Internet or Cable. Or even most Medicine Unless it is given in Free Promotion.

Food Costs more than a $1.50. As Do Paper Towels, Tissues, Bathroom Tissue, Toothpaste, Soap

You maybe can buy 1 item at a Fast Food. Even most soda and water in Vending Machines costs more than a $1.50 !!

Prices go Up Up Up !! Yet nothing is done to help those who need it except threats to take away The Safety Net.

In Short Mr Speaker You are Clueless. People will and are starving and hungry out there. You need to see Reality Not The Fantasy Land Your God Ayn Rand Wrote about. People are sick and hurting. I know I live in Poverty myself. It’s No Joke. Fact 60 Percent of Americans Have Less Than $500.00 In Savings for emergency in the bank.

Better Yet You need to be Voted out of office. Good ideas win elections ! Bad ideas like Yours kill people while making the priveledged wealthy.

So America You See What $1.50 Gets and it’s not much.

But you can change this.

Thank You

God Bless

#Impact 2018 Save The #SafetyNet America

My Friends So Glad To be back writing this blog again in 2018 after some much needed down time.

So Let’s begin I recently Decided after last year to improve Our advocacy. We No longer are #ExpandMedicaidNow #Impact but Now #Impact . We Still Will intend to advocate For All to Have Access to Quality Affordable #Healthcare. But many need help so We expand what We do.

We Begin 2018 with Trump still in Power – UGH !! Now emboldened by a Tax Cut That will Doom The Hard Working Americans and Middle Class. Pure Robber Barons. The Rich Got A Cash Grab.

In order to Pay for this ….We All know the money must come from somewhere.

Where You Ask…? Well The Safety Net of Course !!

For Those Uninformed The SAFETY NET

IS : #SOCIALSECURITY #MEDICARE #MEDICAID #PARTD #THEACA #OBAMACARE #AFDC #WIC #FOODSTAMPS and #Section8

These Cuts Will Doom Those who have No Voice such as The Elderly The Working Poor and Disabled. Many depend on these programs to make their lives better. The idea of The SAFETY NET was to give people dignity.

For example Social Security Created by President Franklin D Roosevelt in 1933 as Part of The New Deal. The Reason The Old Deserve dignity.

Dignity is what these programs provide. Yet Many GOP and Trump in their ignorance and greed want to kick The Old Poor Sick and Disabled to the Curb . All this to appease 1 Percent of Americans who are wealthy !! Just Disgusting, Pathetic and UnAmerican . Yes UnAmerican .

We Are A Better People than this. To Let the Elderly, Working Poor, Disabled and Those struggling to Survive Suffer is Inhumane.

How will they Suffer ?

Cuts To or Eliminating #SocialSecurity Puts Senior Citizens and The Disabled on The Street.

Cuts To or Eliminating #Medicare #MEDICAID and #PartD and #THEACA #OBAMACARE

Mean the Elderly, Poor and Disabled Have No Access To Regular Primary Doctors or Specialists. Because many are Too Poor to Afford It They Will Not Be able to Afford their Medicines. I know this personally I Live it as an Uninsured person in Florida. I can testify to what a backwards Creul Political Ideology does to the sick and poor. Plus it too will put people on the street if cut or eliminated.

Cuts To or Eliminating #AFDC #WIC #FOODSTAMPS and #SECTION8

Mean The Poor Elderly and Disabled Will Not Eat !! And will starve to Death !! Or Be Homeless without Section 8 which pays rent.

These programs contrary to myth Are Not Hand Outs. They Save Lives. That is their purpose.

So America What kind of Nation Do You Want ? One That Forces it’s old, sick, and poor onto the street To eventually Die !! Die Homeless Sick and Hungry ? ….If THE Cuts Come That Will Happen !! Fact is it’s happening now but many do NOT Notice. Why because it’s NOT THEM !

RIGHT NOW 6 IN 10 AMERICANS HAVE Less Than $500.00 in Savings For Emergency. These Cuts Will devastate them.

But Guess what it Could be You, Your Neighbors, Co Workers or Family. Members. Or It Could be You !!

Or Do You want to Fight to Save The #SafetyNet Because You or someone you know may need it ??

Your Choice America

I Say Protect The Safety Net !! So The Elderly, Disabled and Poor Have Dignity. Leaving You with a Few memes to look at and think about…

Thank You God Bless

Facebook Is Censoring Me !! 

My Friends I Am going through a Rough Time . Personally and As an Advocate.  In The Past 2 Weeks  FACEBOOK has Suspended Me From Sharing to Groups. It Started when I Shared A Blog or tried to on September 19, 2017 . I Got A Notification From Facebook Stating : 

Your Account is Suspended For 1 Week For Sharing to Groups The Reason My Blog was Reported As SPAM.

The Blog Titled : A Few Good Reasons To.Have Healthcare. Can be Found on this site. 

My Work is NOT SPAM FACEBOOK and Mark Zuckeberg.  I Am A Certified Advocate from Catalyst Miami #PLTI Parent Leadership Training Institute . I have been An Advocate on Social Media both FACEBOOK and Twitter over 5 years. I can Speak Publicly on Healthcare. I am A real Person Not A Robot. Yet I am in FACEBOOK JAIL, and IT SUCKS !! Here is Why 

Two Weeks Later Suspended Again By Facebook.  Same thing Posting SPAM for this meme on Colin Kapernick and Free Speech (See Below)

Then Two Weeks Later Again Suspended by Facebook For Posting this meme To Groups. My own I Own and Created.  On Healthcare and #SCHIP. (State Children’s Health Insurance Program). Below

 Now You Tell Me How Am i Supposed to Advocate  ??? When You Cut My Legs Off Facebook?? I am a member in Good Standing of over 100 Groups . I post to 40 of them daily .  Tell me How A Maximum amount of People Can be Informed when you Censor Me ?? Tell Me How I can advocate For the Sick or Poor to Help them without Maximum Views ?? 

I Founded the Facebook Page ExpandMedicaidNow Impact To Help others. We have over 1,100 Likes and Follows. But when you do what I do you need more people to see so Positive Change Happens. We got over 6,000 Views a few times on Memes and Posts. Progress in terms of Our Goal of All Insured and Growing the message. But Now Regress. On Social Media IT’s All About The Views. One Fake News Site made $10,000.00.Per month based on Views. Yet We as Factual Truthful Advocates and Activists suffer and get suspended.  And We Work For Free !!

But it is Not Just Me . Several Liberal Democrats have been suspended for posting items Deemed Spam by Facebook.  The Censorship by  Facebook  has and Will have A Chilling Effect On Advocates and Activists.  If We Can Not Message Change does not happen . In My case as a Healthcare Advocate People Will Die. 

Yes I did Call The ACLU. They will contact me if they can help. But Social Media must change. We Advocates and Activists should not be censored or defamed. 

I ask All who read this to help me find a way if Facebook stops me so I can continue. 

How Can I help My Friends Amy and Genesis Rodriquez both again now need access to Affordable Quality #Healthcare.  How Can i help the Poor Sick Disabled and #Uninsured  ?? If You Can Not Share to All who will listen and Help ?? Please tell Me Mark Zuckeberg  ?? 

The Answer You Can Not if an Algorhythm,  or anonymous people , or bots with agendas stop you. 

So My Friends I ask You and America to PLEASE HELP ME ? And All Activists and Advocates . I leave you with two memes below are They SPAM AMERICA ??

Thank You 

God Bless

Disaster Recovery  ?? 

My Friends a lot has happened due to 3 Hurricanes Harvey, Irma,and Maria. First I want to Dedicate This Blog To :

The People of Puerto RicoMy Puerto Rican  Friends:  Amy Rodriquez Gen Rodriquez Stephany Matos Luis Pagan Leissla Vanessa Rodriquez Janette Lopez Linda Long and several others from Puerto Rico or who have Friends and Family there.

We had 3 Hurricanes hit Us. First in Texas. #HurricaneHarvey  Second in Florida #HurricaneIrma . Just Recently #HurricaneMaria 

The Response by Government Officials was poor in The cases of #HurricaneIrma and #HurricaneMaria . 

We Shall Start in Florida with Hurricane Irma Many still without Power in Rural Areas. Such.as Immokolee Fl. An agricultural town. There. Was and are rumblings of Others not getting power restored because of Zip Code. I can attest to this personally. 

The Apartment Community I Live in.has 23 Buildings over 300 Units. 6 Buildings went 8 days after #HurricaneIrma without Power While 17 got power back in one day..This Was not Good as many Senior Citizens live there. It is an Over 62 Independent Living Complex. Senior Citizens Should Not have to suffer an injustice like this. I had to personally do a Well being Check on A Neighbor. Called 911 and she is ok. 

The Local officials From the City of Miami Gardens, State and National Officials  did a great job for 3 days distributing Water, Food and Ice. After We Advocates asked for help.  Thank You to Them and Red Cross United Way who pitched in until power was rrstored. Complex Management and Staff did an Outstanding Job organizing and helping out those in need. Personally Delivering Ice Food Water to those who needed it.

But it should not have come to this. Power to My Community and a few others should. Have been restored Immediately.  It was not. What happened in Hollywood Fl at a nursing home. 11 dead due to Heat and No Power after the storm. Was A wake up call. I as an Advocate made calls did Facebook Live and helped with other neighbors to avert a Tradgedy in my Community.  

One Local official Who Visited asked me. Who I blame.  I said Miami Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez Florida Governor Rick Scott and FPL. In Short All 3 dropped the ball My Community should have been on THE LIST.  A List of Priority in terms of who gets power restored. I hope next time they do better. Senior Citizens deserve Better.

These storms have made people sick. I have one friend who was Hospitalized with asthma. Because of No Power For her Breathing Machine. My Friend Genesis Rodriquez got sick and still is not well due to Respiratory and Asthma Issues from having No Power.  So Priorities Must Change So The Sick and old do not die. As the after effects are worse sometimes than the actual storm

 Now look at Poor Puerto Rico.  It is a mess and President Trump could care less. It should not have taken days to Lift the JONES  ACT – A TRADE TARIIF.  Puerto Rico is A U.S. Territory.  It’s Residents ate Citizens.  They deserve Our Respect. Puerto Rico has 3 Million People.  They Need :

1. Food

2. Water
3. Ice 

4 Power and Cell Stations Fixed and Soon. 

I agree with retired General U.S. Army Russell Honoree who recommended Evacuations of All people to The United States.  This is best so if you have a relative or Friend in Puerto Rico  Please Help Them. You Too Can help. Here is How

 Please Donate to Red Cross and United Way to Help also. 

But the Powers that be must restore Electric Power soon to all who need it. We All Are #TexasStrong #HoustonStrong #FloridaStrong and #PuertoRicoStrong 

Thank You God Bless

A Few Good Reasons To Have Healthcare 

My Friends Sorry It has been so long since I have written A Blog. But I have been busy making memes and developing #ExpandMedicaidNow #Impact into an Advocacy site. Plus Advocating for Hurricane Supplies for The Senior Apartment Community The Hamlet At Walden Pond Apts.  That I Live in. I am back. Not Even #HurricaneIrma Can Stop Me. 

While I was riding  out #HurricaneIrma and helping My Community.  U.S. Sen McConnell and Lindsey Graham Both (R).decided to again repeal The #ACA . A move that May Leave 26 To 50 Million Americans Uninsured. 

Let Me Tell You about some of Them .

My Pastor and Good Friend and Pastor  Brenda Morris Washington (Pictured Above)  A True Woman of God. 5 Years Ago Brenda had a Major Brain Anyurism She almost died. But because First Miracle of God. And Also having Healthcare she got the best Medical Treatment Avalable. Today She Walks Talks Preaches and Sings Like No other A True Miracle of God. And A Medical Miracle

Amy Rodriquez My Good Friend. (Pictured  Above)  Fights for All to Have Healthcare.  Especially Her Daughter Genesis Rodriquez.  While going without herself. Amy has Fibromyalgia but it does not deter her. She is A Warrior and wants All to Have Access to Quality Affordable #Healthcare.  She Falls into The Medicaid Expansion Gap. Too Poor for An ACA subsidy. Yet she suffers because her Governor Rick Scott of Florida Failed to #ExpandMedicaidNow. Dooming 1 Million Currently #Uninsured in Florida. 

Genesis Rodriquez  (Pictured Above) Age 23 New Mom. Who has 1 Functioning Lung due to Severe Respiratory Illnesses. Asthma ,COPD, Middle Lobe Syndrome. Genesis at age 17 had 3/4 of one lung removed. At age 19-21 went without Healthcare for 3 years having aged out of SCHIP (State Childtens Health Insurance Program).  She Too was A Victim of Florida Not #ExpandMedicaidNow.  She has battled Death and had to subsist on Cough Surup and Claritin because her Medicines Cost $10,000.00 Per Month.  Genesis is A New Mom and has Medicaid Now. 

Michael Phillips (Pictured Above) He Too Needs Medicaid to keep his Cate At Home #NoCutsNoCaps 

Myself  Fred Christian  (Pictured Above) 

I have blogged and Wriiten and Spoken on Being Uninsured. Currently over 30 years. Having Medical Care would have improved the quality of My Life . 

Now What Will Be Cut And Who It Affects

PreExisting Conditions

Medicaid Expansion Will Not Happen on Be Continued 

Children’s Healthcare And New Moms Eliminated or Cut 

See Below Amy and Genesis Rodriquez Pictured

Medicaid Services Will Be DeFunded. 

ACA Tax Subsidies Eliminated.

Women’s Health Eliminated 

Hospitals Will Close 

Clinics Will Close 

People Who work as Medical Providers will be Unemployed . Affecting Your Community You Live In And You.

In Short America This Is #Deathcare 


I Hope You Will Act We Need You 

Please Call Email Your U.S. Senators Tell Them
