How many more warnings do we need before we act decisively against the climate crisis? Our health, agriculture, and food supply are inextricably linked to the environment we live in. We cannot let disasters like the Flint water crisis unfold in Ohio or anywhere else. Everyone deserves clean water. My own uncle\u2019s battle with polio, contracted from contaminated water, is a stark reminder of what\u2019s at stake. We must ensure our children can attend safe schools and safely play in our backyards, not near power plants that have been linked to cancer cases. Breathing clean air isn\u2019t a privilege; it\u2019s a right. I propose investing in renewable energy, enforcing stricter pollution controls, and launching community-driven clean water initiatives.<\/p>

None of us want a Flint Michigan water crisis in Ohio or anywhere else in the country. Everyone deserves clean water. Our bodies are made of 50-70% water. Years ago, my uncle contracted polio from contaminated water. Our children should be able to safely play in water in our backyards. I know several people who lived in proximity to a power plant that died of cancer. Breathing clean air is just a human right as well. I will combat the climate crisis and take necessary steps to protect our environment to ensure we have clean air, energy, and water. In cases like this, we must move past the opposition to save lives. Join me in this fight to secure a future with clean air, energy, and water for all.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Everyone wants and needs to feel safe in their home and community. Over 39,000 people die from gun violence every year-that\u2019s over a 100 a day! We can do better. We need to talk about common-sense gun laws. We need to look at some of the key issues like the purchasing process, mental health screening, criminal background checks, black market guns, socio-economic inequality to name a few. We need to have common-sense solutions, that will save lives, that no one in Washington is addressing in a meaningful way.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3216,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","cpt_services_group":[42],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tamiewilson.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cpt_services\/3213"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tamiewilson.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cpt_services"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tamiewilson.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cpt_services"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tamiewilson.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tamiewilson.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3213"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.tamiewilson.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cpt_services\/3213\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4017,"href":"https:\/\/www.tamiewilson.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cpt_services\/3213\/revisions\/4017"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tamiewilson.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3216"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tamiewilson.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3213"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cpt_services_group","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tamiewilson.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cpt_services_group?post=3213"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
