HELP Mary Glass create COMMUNICATION for People's engagement - Press Release BACK STORY

 MILWAUKEE - YouCaring is selected Crowdfunding for MPA LLC Communication Campaign for the People 

FOR RELEASE September 14, 2015 

Media Contact: Mary Glass, mpapublicpolicyreview@gmail.com 

We are pleased to announce that YouCaring is Milwaukee Professionals Association LLC choice for Crowdfunding.  The platform is well known, has easy access, provides support and its pay system instantly enable users to accept donations. 

"It is clear that we have taken a step forward into the opportunities of the world wide web and social networking for the implementation of our newest campaign, Marathon Against NBA Bucks Mega Greed Deal," said Mary Glass, Chair/Chief Visionary Officer.  "We have launched a time-sensitive crowdfunding campaign to provide necessary information to the People of Milwaukee and Milwaukee County; and, to compete with the Fast-tracking of Mayor Tom Barrett, County Executive Chris Abele and Governor Scott Walker." 

On June 4, 2015, Wisconsinites were broadsided with the press conference announcement by Walker-Abele-Barrett of a deal they had cut with three wealthy millionaire-billionaires for the retention of the Milwaukee Bucks team in the city of Milwaukee. 

The initial deal is called:  "It is Cheaper to Keep Them".  It is proposed at $500 million and consist of  two (2) paying parts – $250 million from buyers ($150 million) and seller ($100 million); and, $250 from PUBLIC FINANCING – $55 million  – state; $55 million – county; $43 million – city of Milwaukee; and, $93 million - Wisconsin Center District - the traffic cop of the funding.  

The announcement also came with pretense of this-n-that in cost.  However, cost-overruns, public staff work, interest and lack of clarity of all partners and investors; the only thing for certain is the taxpayers (mostly the city followed by the county) will pay for 30 years for a private deal for three wealthy men that they knew nothing about, had no input, and did not authorize such a deal of Involuntary Servitude.  

Therein lies the "Misuse of Power" followed by many troubling features, that include Senate Bill 209, $1 giveaway  of approximately 10 acres of prime Park East Corridor real estate, sales tax waivers, purchase of a parking lot, giveaways of parking lot revenue, tax increment districts, $200 million Contingency fund in the 2016 budget, housing funding, environmental payments, changing of RACM staff involvement and authorities, etc.   It is clear that the deal has been on all three (3) levels for some time but no due diligence toward the People.

YouCaring Crowdfunding will assist MPA LLC, the neighbors of the communities and districts of the city of Milwaukee and county of Milwaukee to tweak the fast-tracking and wrongful acts at the present time in the city and county government.  We are especially interested in the fingerprints of those who are up for election in 2016, namely Tom Barrett, Chris Abele, Michael Murphy, Joe Davis, Milele Coggs, Ashanti Hamilton, Anthony Zielinski, Russell Stamper, Willie Wade, Terry Witkowski,  Robert Bauman, Robert Puente, James Bohl, Nik Kovak, Jose Perez,  Robert Donovan, and Mark Borkowski. 

                                                                    (more) 


Our Communication campaign will provide hands-on INCLUSION and outreach to the People for due process.  It will allow the People to "put obligating rules and regulations" to the promised but NO real laws for transparency, implementation points and accountability for gainful employment that is focused on the areas that are densely populated of Color, risky behavior in safety and burdened by Enduring Concentrated Poverty. 
We look forward to creating an ongoing relationship that includes networking with our new relationships across the city-county-state-nation-world to jumpstart a 2015 email and text list for promoting success and the model that will come from the YouCaring Crowdfunding over the next 20 plus days.

YouCaring is selected Crowdfunding for MPA LLC Communication Campaign for the People

MILWAUKEE - We are pleased to announce that YouCaring is Milwaukee Professionals Association LLC choice for Crowdfunding.  The platform is well known, has easy access, provides support and its pay system instantly enable users to accept donations.

"It is clear that we must take a giant step forward into the opportunities of the World Wide Web and social networking for the implementation of our newest campaign, Marathon against NBA Bucks Mega Greed Deal," said Mary Glass, Chair/Chief Visionary Officer.  "We have launched a time-sensitive crowdfunding campaign to jumpstart the campaign and provide necessary information to the People of Milwaukee and Milwaukee County to compete with the Fast-tracking of the Public Financing that has the citizenry hog-tied in 30 years of INVOLUNTARY SERVITUDE.

On June 4, 2015, Wisconsinites were broadsided with the press conference announcement by Governor Scott Walker-County Executive Chris Abele-Mayor Tom Barrett of a deal they had cut with three wealthy millionaires, Herb Kohl and billionaires Wes Edens and Marc Larsy, for the retention of the Milwaukee Bucks National Basketball Team in the city of Milwaukee.

The announced deal is called:  "It is Cheaper to Keep Them".  It is proposed at $500 million and it consists of two (2) paying parts; one is private and one is public.  The private part of the deal was $250 million.  It was divided into:
       $250 million from seller Herb Kohl and buyers Marc Larsy and Wes Eden
       $100 million from seller Herb Kohl
       $150 million from Marc Larsy and Wes Eden

The public part of the deal was $250 million.  It was divided into:                                
– $55 million State of Wisconsin
– $55 million Milwaukee County
– 47 million City of Milwaukee
– 93 million Wisconsin Center District - the traffic cop of the funding. 

The Cheaper to Keep Them announcement also came with surreptitious parts of this-n-that in cost and the promise of JOBS with no specificity in accountability. 

Continued reports of cost-overruns, public staff work, surreptitious meetings, growing interest cost, NO involvement of African American and People of Color and lack of clarity of all partners and investors left the taxpayers of Milwaukee with their mouths open with the ongoing surprises and disgust of another deal for everyone but them; however, they provide the framing and finance.

The bottom line for the taxpayers from the Cheaper to Keep Them deal was that the taxpayers had been violated in due process and they will pay for 30 years for a private deal for three wealthy men (Kohl-Edens-Larsy) that they knew nothing about, had no input, and did not authorize – a deal of Involuntary Servitude. 

They saw how Walker-Abele-Barrett’s "Misuse of Power" included the legislative side (state-county-city), and monopoly-oligopoly takeover of lobbyists, developers and investors with conflict of interest, bait-n-switch, marketing created many troubling features, that included legislators rolling over with support, Rolling Request for Proposals, Resolution, Senate Bill 209, $1 giveaway of approximately 10 acres of prime Park East Corridor real estate, sales tax waivers, purchase of a parking lot, giveaways of parking lot revenue, framing of tax increment districts, recommendations from comptroller and key officers, $200 million Contingency fund in the 2016 city budget (earmarked for NBA Bucks Mega Greed Deal funding), housing funding, environmental payments, changing of RACM staff involvement and the dominance of Head of the Herd LLC.   It is clear that the level of disenfranchisement demands the U.S. Department of Justice and as often as necessary visits to our judicial system for address and relief.

YouCaring Crowdfunding will assist MPA LLC, Milwaukee Joint NSP Committee & Task Force (the neighbors of the communities) in districts of the city of Milwaukee and county of Milwaukee to shine a light, tweak the fast-tracking and wrongful acts at the present time and seek relief through our justice system, public scrutiny and the 2016 ballot box. 
                                                                                                                                                                                                   
We look forward to creating an ongoing leadership, fellowship and stewardship for public policy that includes networking with our new relationships across the city-county-state-nation-world to jumpstart a 2015 email and text list for data collection, surveys, focus groups, and a conference to promote success and the functional model that will come from the YouCaring Crowdfunding over the next 20 plus days.   

Our YouCaring campaign is called:
HELP Mary Glass create COMMUNICATION for People's engagement.

We are creating a volunteer list that includes:  economists, lawyers, sponsors, photographers, writers, graphic designers, videographers, and film producers.  If interested, we are at:  mpapublicpolicyreview@gmail.com

LABOR DAY - A tribute to American Workers - especially African Americans in KING COTTON SLAVERY

CITY-WIDE Milwaukee | DAY of September 7, 2015 | Labor Fest in Milwaukee is the traditional celebration with parade, food, speakers and advocacy at the Henry Maier grounds.  President Barack Obama has been a featured speaker and highlighted the importance of remember the importance of WORK and the importance of improving "work conditions".

Historic
Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.

Through the years the nation gave increasing emphasis to Labor Day. The first governmental recognition came through municipal ordinances passed during 1885 and 1886. From these, a movement developed to secure state legislation. The first state bill was introduced into the New York legislature, but the first to become law was passed by Oregon on February 21, 1887. During the year four more states — Colorado, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York — created the Labor Day holiday by legislative enactment. By the end of the decade Connecticut, Nebraska, and Pennsylvania had followed suit. By 1894, 23 other states had adopted the holiday in honor of workers, and on June 28 of that year, Congress passed an act making the first Monday in September of each year a legal holiday in the District of Columbia and the territories.

African American 
We remember and celebrate the history of African Americans working in these United States and  promoting economic wealth for Caucasians - Enduring Concentrated Poverty.


The Gospel of Slavery, by “Iron Gray,” [Abel C. Thomas] 1864.
The most commonly used phrase describing the growth of the American economy in the 1830s and 1840s was “Cotton Is King.” We think of this slogan today as describing the plantation economy of the slavery states in the Deep South, which led to the creation of “the second Middle Passage.” But it is important to understand that this was not simply a Southern phenomenon. Cotton was one of the world’s first luxury commodities, after sugar and tobacco, and was also the commodity whose production most dramatically turned millions of black human beings in the United States themselves into commodities. Cotton became the first mass consumer commodity.

Understanding both how extraordinarily profitable cotton was and how interconnected and overlapping were the economies of the cotton plantation, the Northern banking industry, New England textile factories and a huge proportion of the economy of Great Britain helps us to understand why it was something of a miracle that slavery was finally abolished in this country at all.

Let me try to break this down quickly, since it is so fascinating:
Let’s start with the value of the slave population. Steven Deyle shows that in 1860, the value of the slaves was “roughly three times greater than the total amount invested in banks,” and it was “equal to about seven times the total value of all currency in circulation in the country, three times the value of the entire livestock population, twelve times the value of the entire U.S. cotton crop and forty-eight times the total expenditure of the federal government that year.” As mentioned here in a previous column, the invention of the cotton gin greatly increased the productivity of cotton harvesting by slaves. This resulted in dramatically higher profits for planters, which in turn led to a seemingly insatiable increase in the demand for more slaves, in a savage, brutal and vicious cycle.

Now, the value of cotton: Slave-produced cotton “brought commercial ascendancy to New York City, was the driving force for territorial expansion in the Old Southwest and fostered trade between Europe and the United States,” according to Gene Dattel. In fact, cotton productivity, no doubt due to the sharecropping system that replaced slavery, remained central to the American economy for a very long time: “Cotton was the leading American export from 1803 to 1937.”

What did cotton production and slavery have to do with Great Britain? The figures are astonishing. As Dattel explains: “Britain, the most powerful nation in the world, relied on slave-produced American cotton for over 80 per cent of its essential industrial raw material. English textile mills accounted for 40 percent of Britain’s exports. One-fifth of Britain’s twenty-two million people were directly or indirectly involved with cotton textiles.”



twenty-two million people were directly or indirectly involved with cotton textiles.”

***********************************************
City Center Milwaukee | September 2, 2015 | Milwaukee Professionals Association LLC visionary leader is Mary Glass.  She has decided to take MPA LLC and the city of Milwaukee neighborhood strategic modeling to the Hidden Talent of the NBA Bucks Mega Greed Deal.

These are the young men, 19 years old to 31 years old, that come to the city of Milwaukee and court of basketball with HIDDEN talent and BIZ potential for partnership and MPA LLC plans to encourage engagement in the CORE CONSTITUENTS.

Demographics
The NBA Bucks Team has primarily the same demographics as the city of Milwaukee.  

They are African American, other People of Color and Caucasian.  

They are from cities across the USA; and, they are from Greece, Mexico, Venezuela, Canada and French Guyana.

Skin-n-the-Game
The Hidden Talent and CORE CONSTITUENTS of the NBA Bucks Mega Greed Deal are not mentioned.  They are the 18-member team of young men that will run the court in the games to Win.

These are the professionals and Hidden Talent that PAY a FEE every time they PLAY on the COURTS in the state of Wisconsin and the City of Milwaukee.  Not only the 18-member team, but any of their colleague-players from other teams that play in Milwaukee from other teams.

Therefore, they are automatically vetted and vested; and, should be a "working partner" with the neighborhoods who have been saddled with a 30-year taxpayer law (Statute 209).  They should have a say-so in the growth and success of Milwaukee the HOMETOWN according to Glass.

"Glass said, I will talk to each of the young men on the NBA Bucks Team to see if they see the benefit of creating a model - an image - that is more in line with Stewardship and Entrepreneurship of the NEW Millennium.  Additionally, since they are all less than 32 years of age, I expect nothing but INNOVATION."

Text4Baby - SEPTEMBER 1, 2015


September 1, 2015

Dear MARY,
 
You may have noticed some changes in the Text4baby website over the past week. This is because we have launched a brand new site! If you visit text4baby.org you will see a new look to the site, as well as some new features. The change gives us an opportunity to provide more information for Text4baby moms about their pregnancies, their health and their babies' health.

For now, the partner page will continue to look the same, but will be found at a slightly different web address: https://partners.text4baby.org/index.php/get-involved-pg/partners. You can still access the same information and resources that you have been using, and this part of the site will not change until a later date. To access the partner page, you can also go through text4baby.org, then click the Outreach Partner link at the top left. If you currently have a link to Text4baby on your website, you should double-check the link and make sure it's going to the correct page.

We are excited about this new change and look forward to hearing feedback from moms and partners! If you have any questions about the new website, or have noticed a problem with one of your links, please notify your State Outreach Manager or email info@text4baby.org.
 
Sincerely,

Kathleen Murphy
Senior Program Manager, Text4baby
