What we share is humanity. On April 28 Jessica Waters, senior scholar in residence at American University’s School of Public Health addressed a House Judiciary subcommittee for two hours about the Freedom of Access to Clinic

This was before these latest, heartless policies make it nearly impossible for a dependent adult to live with family. It will have the intended consequence to force dependent adults into institutional settings while Trump Republicans cut $1 trillion from the federal portion tha

Afterall, the U.S. and state governments spent an estimated $31.6 billion during the pandemic on vaccine research, clinical trials, production, and purchasing. This was augmented by an additional $16.25 billion allocated to the CDC, plus billions from FEMA and localized state funds to man

Private equity cannot continue to invest in nursing homes and care centers without states improving guardrails. One way to do that is for state legislatures to require private equity to post a surety bond, the legislature specifying the dollar amount and the bond language, to best protect the public before the acquisition. Journalist, ST BADHON wrote more about this in his Substack article (Click the Link): "The statute has to specify automatic forfeiture triggers — missed r

In fact, 67% of Americans in 2026 fear they will run out of money. You have read the headlines and can see the writing on the wall. I am talking about the unprovoked attack on Iran that has panicked the entire world, spiked gas and oil prices with no ceiling in sight and will lead to inevitable shortages. However, I believe what people

Photo by Mathias Reding on Unsplash Robert Kramer explores how the Republican "Big Beautiful Bill" passed in 2025 will impact the growing number of caregivers giving aid and assistance to the growing population of elderly and disabled Americans by reducing need benefits and healthcare access. Out of an estimated 63 million Americans in the role of caregiver, only about 11 million receive pay for performing this role through state or Veterans Administration programs. This nee

Photo by Akram Huseyn on Unsplash Robert Kramer discusses how Republicans are leaving behind Americans and American families through recent budget-busting legislation. Families across America are forced to make choices like this since Republicans passed Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" or (OBBBA) for short in 2025. On March 19, 2026, the Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF) surveyed over 1,000 families who received their 2025 health insurance through the "American Care Act

Trump proudly named his porcine project "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" or (OBBBA) for short. And the Republicans in Congress who do the shoveling for him got out their shovels and buried the facts. So now this Pig has been turned loose on the most vulnerable Ame

I think we can all agree that America has been in unprecedented chaos since Donald Trump entered politics. There are massive failures in the general political and economic systems, and only now, after the damage is done, are people finally talking about what should be done to settle things down. The so-called "one big beautiful bill act" (OBBBA), passed in 2025, sits at the center of the sabotage discussion and what should be done to facilitate system equilibrium in response.

Robert shares both a sad and triumphant story about his unrelenting effort to ensure his deceased, disabled daughter, Christine, received the funding and disability services she needed. The moral of the story may be: VOTE and fight like your life or the life of a loved one matters! "Whether you care for a disabled child, a disabled adult, or a disabled elderly person, you will face denials for benefits or coverage from an insurance company: Medicare, Medicaid, housing author

More importantly, he will share insights that may help you navigate an increasingly tedious, hostile system to secure the necessary funding and services for yourself or a loved one.
