September 30, 2020 — Stop focusing on the presidential election, New York, and start focusing on ALBANY – THAT is where the most important elections are happening for us in 2020. Below John Gilmore gives us a breakdown of every Albany politician that we can vote FOR on November 3rd, and everyone we must vote AGAINST.
Vaccine mandates come from state – not federal – governments. That is why your local elections are far more important than the federal puppet show.
As John Gilmore writes below:
“The vaccine industry will come after homeschoolers and adults next. They want to make flu shots mandatory. They want to make Covid 19 shots mandatory. They want to give your children shots without your knowledge or consent. They want to take away our right to determine what is done to our bodies or our children’s bodies.”
Remember to write-in ELIZABETH GLASS for NY Senate in District 27, Manhattan.

From John Gilmore, Autism Action Network
The legislators who voted to deny our children an education will be up for re-election on November 3. When the Assemblymembers below voted to eliminate the religious exemption to vaccine mandates on June 13, 2019 they created a new class of children in New York: children who have no right to an education. Every person in New York under the age of 21 who does not have a high school diploma is entitled to a free, public education, but not our kids. And they denied our children the right to a private education as well. An incarcerated minor who is a convicted serial killer is entitled to a free public education if they do not have a high school diploma, but not our kids.
Some people say election don’t matter. That’s a way to avoid responsibility for doing what you can and should do. 27,000 children lost their right to an education. If even 20% of the parents of those children had shown up in Albany we would still have our rights. If 5 out of 63 Senators had voted differently the repeal of the religious exemption would have lost, likewise, if 8 of 150 Assemblymembers changed their votes. What you do matters. Some of these politicians are in close elections where every vote counts.
The vaccine industry will come after homeschoolers and adults next. They want to make flu shots mandatory. They want to make Covid 19 shots mandatory. They want to give your children shots without your knowledge or consent. They want to take away our right to determine what is done to our bodies or our children’s bodies.
We crossed a line on June 13, 2019, either you are for us or you are against us. There is no in-between anymore, and it is obvious who is who. Please check the list below to see how your Assemblymember voted.
