  • To be able to choose the higher priced medicine makes you fortunate as many can’t. Criminalizing the sick and disabled for making the moral choice for them and their family is bad policy. #wfwp #wfwp2019 #wfwproject #corporatetyranny
  • “Three veterans killed themselves last week on Department of Veterans Affairs health care properties” How long will we “bend the knee” to institutions that demand control but have no answers? #wfwp #wfwproject #wfwp2019 #suicide “The department has not made a dent in stemming the approximately 20 suicide deaths every day among veterans, about one and a half times more often than those who have not served in the military, according to the most recent statistics available from the department.”
  • How long will we let the ignorant prohibitionist control our future. How long will those with no answers to the skyrocketing overdose and suicide epidemic be allowed to dictate how we react to the daily threat that is killing so many of our sisters and brothers. How long will those in government be allowed to collect hundreds of millions in donations from our murderers while ignoring America's 21st century genocide of overdose and suicide at the hands of Big Pharma. ✊🏽💪🏽👍🏼 to our @wfwp_tampa @wfwp_northfl & @wfwp_miami chapters for getting involved! @kellz_w_82 💚🙏✌🏽 "The committee also shot down an effort by Smith to add opiate addiction to the conditions that make patients eligible for marijuana treatment, despite pleas from veterans like Kelly Wahlers Parrott, a nurse who is vice president of the Tampa chapter of Weed for Warriors Project. She said she used medical marijuana to wean herself off prescription painkillers she had become hooked on. “I’m a better mom. I’m a better nurse. I’m a better human being because of it,” she said. Smith’s amendment died on a voice vote." #wfwp #wfwproject #wfwp2019
  • Shame 😡on the mayor of Beverly Hills John Mirisch @jmirisch #johnmirisch , & his City Council: #lesterfriedman , @lilibosse1 #lilebosse , @goldjmd #juliangold , & #robertwunderlich ; for suing the State of California @bureauofcannabiscontrol in an effort to stop delivery of cannabis in the 80% of the state where no other legal access exist. If successful, their lawsuit will deny veterans access to cannabis as an alternative to the VA’s deadly Pharmaceutical cocktail 🍸 of addiction, overdose & suicide! Privilege vs the working classes of America is on center stage as the elites war on veterans has never been so obvious! Shame on the city of Beverly Hills for supporting their leader’s war on #disabledveterans! @bh_chamber why must rich business owners always shit on those who serve to protect them? #trustfundkids #killingveterans #beverlyhills #privilege #kills #wfwp #wfwproject #wfwp2019 #localcontrol #cuttingourthroats
