This act did not pass otherwise I would not be having my current troubles. Hopefully it will be reintroduced once again and pass this time. I’ve been working closely with my contact at my Congressman Hakeem Jeffries office as well as my union DC 37. These last seven years have been a real struggle for me and Stephen and I’m hoping that soon we can stop struggling and start living. We are ready for a breakthrough.

This bill brings some hope but it will not cover my situation.

Thank you.
Awesomely knitted piece…i had to vote it 5/5 Bravo!
Thanks.
I hope it does get brought up again and it passes. Positive energy ❤
Yes it would be nice if the government would agree on laws that would help the disabled and their caregivers.
May it all resolove quickly in your favor!
Yes, but they need it brought up again and fought for. Don’t let this die, DeBorah. You could be setting things in place for others.
Too bad it’s just me alone. My wish is that other Americans would call, write or email their Congresspersons or reps. My one little voice won’t do much. After this week of vacation is over I’ll be back to working overtime and double shifts just to pay for legal representation for something that should be my right. Low income people like me suffer because we don’t have money, power or connections to make any significant changes. Just thinking about my situation makes me sick inside.

So far Legal Aid, Brooklyn Bar Association and Brooklyn Legal Services have all been a dead end for me. None of them do Guardianship cases. Therefore I must appeal for donations. Please donate to help me obtain guardianship for Stephen and the right to FMLA via my PayPal account at deborah.palmer280@gmail.com
Thank you and God Bless.
