Should citizens have a direct say in major healthcare decisions—and what would that look like in practice? In this timely and engaging episode, Myron Goretzky explores the concept of a National Advisory Referendum on the Health Care Bill, examining how public input could shape one of the most critical issues affecting society today. Drawing from policy discussions and civic engagement principles, Myron discusses the idea of using referendums as a tool to gather public opinion on complex healthcare legislation. He explores the potential benefits—greater transparency, accountability, and democratic participation—alongside the challenges of ensuring informed decision-making on highly technical issues. This episode invites listeners to consider the role of the public in shaping policy. Should healthcare decisions be left solely to lawmakers and experts, or should citizens play a more direct role? How can complex information be communicated effectively to voters? And what impact could such a referendum have on future legislation? Join us for a thought-provoking conversation that dives into democracy, healthcare, and public voice—where policy meets participation, and where the future of healthcare may depend on how engaged the public becomes.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

The U.S. House has recently passed a Healthcare funding measure – it's one that will get the ball rolling as Congress has yet to tackle the impending deadline for the end of the Covid-19 ACA insurance subsidies. Montana Congressman Troy […] The post House Healthcare Bill Kick-Starts Reform Discussions, with Rep. Troy Downing first appeared on Voices of Montana.
(The Center Square) – The U.S. House passed the Lower Health Care Premiums for All Americans Act in a party line, 216-211, vote Wednesday, sending the bill to its likely demise in the Senate. The bill, which will almost certainly fail to reach the Senate's 60-vote threshold, is Republicans' alternative to extending enhancements to the Obamacare Premium Tax Credit. Congress temporarily expanded the PTC during the COVID-19 pandemic, and its reversion to original pre-pandemic levels will partially contribute to rising premiums in 2026.

State Representative Teri Anulewicz, a Smyrna Democrat, criticized Republicans for supporting a bill that would ban "gender-affirming care" for transgender youth in her speech to attendees at the Cobb Democratic Party's meeting on March 18. Anulewicz argued that the bill's supporters are motivated by money and the need to remain relevant, suggesting that they are "punching down on vulnerable kids and their families who are just trying to do the best for their kids." Anulewicz also mentioned that there have been zero gender affirming surgeries done on trans minors in the last year in Georgia, but that the bill could penalize doctors who perform certain procedures that may be performed for non-gender-affirming reasons, such as breast reduction surgeries to alleviate back pain. Meanwhile, State Representative Ginny Ehrhart, an East Cobb Republican, defended the legislation, claiming it was in the best interest of children. The bill has passed the Republican-controlled state Senate and is now awaiting Governor Brian Kemp's approval. Voters sent Aaron Carman and Michael Owens to a runoff in the race for mayor of Mableton on Tuesday, according to unofficial results reported by Cobb County elections. As neither candidate received more than 50% of the vote, the race heads to an April 18 runoff. With 100% of precincts reporting, Carman, a sales manager who was endorsed by the group behind the movement to de-annex areas from the new city, finished with 2,162 votes, or 35.8%. Owens, former chairman of the Cobb Democratic Party, finished with 1,846 votes, or 30.6%. Cobb County's court in Georgia has largely resolved its backlog of almost 4,000 cases, due to its judges' efficient use of technology during the Covid-19 pandemic. Gregory Poole, the new chief judge of the Cobb Superior Court, noted the use of technology to hold virtual pre-trial and motion hearings and live streaming court cases for family members as ways that helped resolve the backlog. He added that the court is still seeing the benefit of these adaptations to date, even though it has since returned to normal in terms of jury trials, which continue to be held in-person.

While several Mableton races are headed to a runoff, one outcome has been certain for weeks — Debora Herndon will represent District 6 on the City Council. Herndon, a legal practice specialist, was elected unopposed Tuesday night. She received 539 votes, with 100% of precincts reporting. Another candidate, Ricky Dickens, had originally qualified to run in District 6, and even participated in an early campaign forum. But he notified Cobb Elections in late February that he wished to withdraw from the race. It was too late to remove Dickens' name from the ballot, but votes cast for him did not count. Herndon was endorsed by the De-Annexation from Mableton group, which is pushing for parts of the city that voted against incorporation last fall to be removed from the city. De-annexation can occur through two channels — acts of the state legislature or approval by the mayor and City Council.

Senator Jason Esteves, an Atlanta Democrat, held a virtual town hall meeting to discuss the controversy over the Sterigenics plant in Smyrna, Georgia. Esteves announced plans to introduce legislation to increase regulation on the testing and monitoring of ethylene oxide, a known carcinogen used to sterilize medical equipment. The Sterigenics plant is facing lawsuits from Cobb County residents, workers, and homeowners over its emissions of ethylene oxide. Panelists discussed other proposals, such as giving local jurisdictions such as Cobb County funds to do their own air monitoring. The EPA had previously identified two census tracts near the Smyrna facility with elevated health risks from airborne toxins. Air quality testing found levels of ethylene oxide up to 395 times higher than what federal regulators deem acceptable. Esteves pledged to hold another town hall in the coming months. The Chattahoochee Nature Center in Roswell has engaged Atlanta muralist Thomas Turner to create a unique mural masterpiece at the Center. The mural will cascade down a multi-tier hillside staircase in the heart of the 127-acre campus and will serve as a backdrop for events hosted at the Center's Ben Brady Lakeside Pavilion. This original, progressive masterpiece will tell a story and welcome visitors to embrace Turner's fantastical universe and surrealist lens of the natural world. The mural will be purpose-built to serve as an iconic landmark and celebration of CNC's history, ecosystem of local flora and fauna, and its native habitats and riverways while reflecting a cultural representation of the Center's values and ethos. The public is invited to attend the grand reveal at CNC's Community Day on April 23 from noon to 4 p.m. The Community Day, which closely coincides with Earth Day, will include the grand reveal of the mural, photo opportunities, guided hikes and live animal encounters. It will also celebrate one year of CNC's new River Boardwalk Trail. The event is free, but reservations are required. For more information please head to Chatt Nature Center dot Org.

THE THESIS: Bill Gates is not done sticking it in people. The people who run Joe Biden want the utterly corrupt World “Health” Organization--which Gates has effectively purchased--to seize control over the operation of healthcare in America. If the people behind Biden cause him to sign the diktat they are pushing, it would be illegal for your doctor to go against the World “Health” Organization's decrees. THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES: 1 Samuel 8: 6-21 6 But when they said, “Give us a king to lead us,” this displeased Samuel; so he prayed to the Lord. 7 And the Lord told him: “Listen to all that the people are saying to you; it is not you they have rejected, but they have rejected me as their king. 8 As they have done from the day I brought them up out of Egypt until this day, forsaking me and serving other gods, so they are doing to you. 9 Now listen to them; but warn them solemnly and let them know what the king who will reign over them will claim as his rights.” 10 Samuel told all the words of the Lord to the people who were asking him for a king. 11 He said, “This is what the king who will reign over you will claim as his rights: He will take your sons and make them serve with his chariots and horses, and they will run in front of his chariots. 12 Some he will assign to be commanders of thousands and commanders of fifties, and others to plow his ground and reap his harvest, and still others to make weapons of war and equipment for his chariots. 13 He will take your daughters to be perfumers and cooks and bakers. 14 He will take the best of your fields and vineyards and olive groves and give them to his attendants. 15 He will take a tenth of your grain and of your vintage and give it to his officials and attendants. 16 Your male and female servants and the best of your cattle[c] and donkeys he will take for his own use. 17 He will take a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will become his slaves. 18 When that day comes, you will cry out for relief from the king you have chosen, but the Lord will not answer you in that day.” 19 But the people refused to listen to Samuel. “No!” they said. “We want a king over us. 20 Then we will be like all the other nations, with a king to lead us and to go out before us and fight our battles.” 21 When Samuel heard all that the people said, he repeated it before the Lord. 22 The Lord answered, “Listen to them and give them a king.” THE NEWS & COMMENT: BLOCK 1 [AUDIO] - If Bill Gates and the World Health Organization are allowed to take control of international pandemic policy, we're in deep trouble, says Dan Wootton.
