I’ve already emailed him when the ban 1st came out

tomorrow I’ll be calling the governors office as well as my representatives. There will or needs to be a public forum for this ban to comply legally. I can’t go since I broke my hip 2 weeks ago but I will be having my voice heard.

tweeting really doesn’t do much good. An ex aide said phone calls, letters, emails carry the most weight if you want it to be seen and recorded in the records of the particular office.

we should all be doing this with our congress people as well.

they know me well probably because I call a lot regarding environmental and animal welfare issues.

it sounds scary but it’s just an aide that you speak to and you tell them how you feel about a particular subject which gets logged. Eventually the politician gets a summary of how many people called or wrote for or against the subject. Outstanding or heart wrenching communications are given directly to the politician.

either way you’ll usually get a written response on behalf of the rep about the subject. Easy peasy!!

we need to BE LOUD!!!

I've written a couple of letters. Thank you for writing on behalf of animal rights and the environment. Seems we share similar concerns. I don't usually get deeply involved in politics but I went door to door when we voted on Farm Animals.

I love people who do more than just complain about the state of affairs. I always tell people if you don’t have the time or a lot of money then just sign petitions and donate $5 if that’s all you can afford. Everything helps!!

WOOT! I just put in a call to Baker's office and spoke to an aide. I practically quoted @zelda @f1vefour and @Eskie and have to admit I got pretty animated, lol. The aide was really nice and agreed with what I said.

Then I phoned the AG's office and I didn't get through. Got the recording to stay on the line and nothing happened. I'll try again later.

My call to the AG directed me to the DPH which went to a recording where I had to leave a call back number. I couldn't wait to speak my peace so I wrote a statement on the DPH website. I hope they actually read the comments.

I'm on a tear now. Baker is going to need small business and public participation now in order to carry out the judge's order. I hope I get to attend.

With all that's going on I figured I better stock up on some hardware besides juice supplies. I still use some old devices and clearomizers that I like and have always been able to find a few things on Ebay. However, I just did a search for a few things and am getting 0 matches. I even tried a search for just clearomizers and nothing showed up. I wonder if Ebay no longer allows vaping products on their site.

I saw a FB post this week that Ebay now doesn't allow the vape things that they used to.
