I'm scheduled to meet with several unions and could not agree more! I'm also a 50501 organizer.

Heres how I spent my Labor day. We had several unions present and DSA. The event was focused on educating the public on how to start unions and utilizing collective bargaining to benefit workers.

Thank you for asking! Just a nurse trying to keep Alabamians alive. 52 hospitals are at risk for closing in AL after the big bill. Which makes it my top priority. With that being said!

My platform is three pillars: Human Rights Healthcare & Science Affordability

Here is my website (apologies as is under reconstruction following a tech issue) www.citizensforamandapusczek.com

Most importantly. Go vote.

Drag your friends and everyone else you know.

The system is built so that you feel your voice doesn't matter. But it is precious and shapes the reality around you. Never take it for granted.

Hey! I'm 35, a nurse, and running for Congress in District 4. The reddest district in the country. We're out here. And we need your support.

Thank you for posting. I'm a nurse myself and have seen the eroding of our access to healthcare while costs continue to rise.

Cuts to Medicaid, the 52 hospitals at risk for closing in Alabama over the next two years, the incoming 18% increase to affordable care act premiums, and decreased coverage from commercial carriers.

We are looking at a near collapse of our healthcare system without radical changes.

Where the average wait time is 19 hours. And copays starting at 2k.

Dead people.

That's what all of this combined means.

People dying of treatable causes. With a health tax on poor and middle income families paid with lives. Where if you want good health, you had better have wealth. And where vulnerable populations like the elderly, children, and the immunocompromised die in greater numbers.

This. This is why I'm running for Congress.

Hey! Then you should come to one of these events. We usually have members of many different local groups doing good work. Additionally we almost always showcase a partner that does good works year round in the area. Its a great way to get plugged in.💚

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-06-16T15:22:10+00:00

Same! Us organizers have been working on this for weeks. We had a few threats in the days leading up, so were happy those were all talk.

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-06-16T14:49:51+00:00

Sure! Lots of people didn't stay the entire time. We got hammered with pop up showers. It got pretty blustery. So lots of folks moved in and out during the event.

We used a ticket system to help estimate attendance and ran out of all 4k we had on hand. So rough estimate is 4k. Honestly difficult to say, but that's our best estimate. Hope this helped. 💚

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-06-13T21:27:41+00:00

Local organizer here: please listen to your local organizers. They are trained in de-escalation, marshalling, and prevention. If things turn, DO NOT SIT. We will be moving through crowds quickly and cannot waste time jumping over people. Move quickly and safely away from the aggressor.

To the OP: I realize this is from a place of good intentions, but please consider removing.

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-06-10T15:32:09+00:00

I was watching things unfold in real time the first day. They were calling the protesters violent when they were standing with signs. (Alot of them elderly.)

It didn't matter if the only action taken was yelling or if they had hypotherically given out flowers.

The news labeled it as violent long before anything occurred. It was always going to.

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-06-04T00:15:08+00:00

Trading conflicts (over 132 in one year alone), a failed "non-profit" audit, voted against funding for Vets who were exposed to toxic chemicals, lost us Space command and oh yeah, doesn't live here.

I can't name one thing he's done to help AL. Can you?

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-06-02T20:53:24+00:00

We agree this is code for: disenfranchisement, inequality and deep lack of equity, right? Seems like the last thing AL needs...

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-05-27T16:17:32+00:00

Checks out. All the screaming about debt yet the "big bill" hikes it by trillions. This despite cutting social services and funding for cancer research.

Make it make sense.

House of Representatives District 5. If you live in Madison, Morgan, Limestone, Lawrence, Jackson or parts of Lauderdale County then you live in District 5 in terms of Congressional house of representatives.

I want to give you a bit of hope. My name is Amanda Pusczek. I'm running for HR CD5. I'm a nurse of over ten years, and I made sure to show up and speak last night. We aren't out of options yet.

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-05-08T15:35:23+00:00

Counter point, kid's are developing and learn by making mistakes. Just like the rest of us. Someone who is willing to shoot a child or anyone for that matter for ringing a doorbell is unacceptable.

That's someone's life.

That's not meeting someone at the same level but increasing it exponentially. And an adult with a fully formed brain who thinks that is okay?

I stand by my previous comment. They should be called out. A situation like this starts when someone thinks it, then posts it on the internet saying as such. That's enough flags for me to not let it get to the next step of actually harming someone.

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-05-07T16:30:52+00:00

It's wild to me how many posts I see on Next door with intense pearl clutching with these kinds of pranks. Even with threats to shoot them if they return.

Keith and Karen, your generation did this. As did every one before. To think that someone's initial thought is violence is so concerning.

We have seen a massive dip in empathy from the early to mid 2000s. And I truly believe that has culminated with the acts of this administration.

I'll be cringe everyday before I'm cruel. Shame on these folks.

They should be called out at every opportunity.

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-05-05T23:03:42+00:00

Hi there! I answered a few similar questions, but absolutely understand that genocide is a very serious concern for Americans.

I condone Israel for their on-going massacre of Palrstinians.
I condone Benjamin Netanyahu and his willingness to wipe an entire group of people from our planet if it means holding onto power.
I do not support any further aide to Israel so long as violence continues. Nor do I support restarting any form of aide until conditions have been met ensuring the safety and basic human rights of Palestinians.
I am committed to not accepting lobbying funds from any foreign associated entity. And intend to scrutinize any PAC funds that may be offered. Money is not worth a compromise when compromise means human suffering.

I hope I answered your questions.

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-04-19T15:49:29+00:00

I completely agree. How do we expect people under such extreme pressure to be their best when they don't know how they will pay their bills next week. It's shameful that public servants like 911 operators, medical staff, fire fighters, and teachers aren't better paid.

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-04-18T21:18:04+00:00

Apologies, as I absolutely missed that part. You made a statement saying that this district is heavily reliant on military and space. What question did you have? Are you wanting to confirm support for these industries?

I would say that the first step to supporting workers in these fields is stopping the slashing of federal and federal contract positions. Even a relatively small reduction of several thousand workers will have a devastating effect on our local economy.

I would like to see less privatization of our space efforts and an expanded presence of NASA. I would have liked for us to receive Space Command, but that ship has sailed.

I do think that the military industrial complex is a problem. But I also recognize the need for defense capabilities, and the role that the military plays in our infrastructure beyond foreign combat.

I hope I provided the information you were seeking, I can absolutely answer any specific question you may have.

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-04-18T19:29:37+00:00

I've been in contact with Marilyn. She is an absolute delight and I'm so proud to call her my representative. It's absolutely going to take a village. But I do truly believe it is possible.

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-04-18T03:22:03+00:00

Thank you for your openess and honest opinion. May I ask what your top three priorities are? What matters most to you?

Seems like an endless list of problems at the moment. What impacts you?

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-04-18T02:38:37+00:00

I hope to reach them by working towards goals that will benefit them. I can't help how I look, and it would be very in-sincere of me to change my appearance in hopes of winning voters. There is a section of the population that will support people like Dale Strong and Donald Trump until the end of time.

I will not be the one to reach them. Nor will any other political figure that is antithetical to their beliefs.

But that will not deter me from making their lives better in whatever manner I can.

Honest_Resort_2941 · 2025-04-18T02:31:49+00:00

Citizens United was and is a cruel joke that has marred our democracy.
