We the People Matter!lets stop the nonsense and get back to addressing common sense issues. Government has failed and allowed Healthcare Systems such as Crozer Hospital to close but will pay SEPTA hundreds of millions of dollars to continue poor service and rising costs. The people’s healthcare is now at a true risk, hospital beds are a minimum turns and burn centers are out of reach and more people are dying because hospital services are a distance away from i95 now. Tax’s are going as well as utility cost to make up for the hospital closure. People have lost there jobs and in states and counties in the tri-state area people now have great wait times to see general practitioners.Government has Failed YOU! The Cost of Living keeps going up. Our Healthcare Systems are closing “Crozer/Taylor Hospitals”, Corporations keep over looking the everyday workers, Education keeps costing more and more and our salaries are less and less. Government Officials vote for shutdowns that take money and food away from the people but it’s those same Official's that continue to get paid. The people’s mental health and addictions keeps growing in our youth to our senior citizens. We need to address this crises head on and offer more community events and education that people aren’t alone and you matter. https://melvincampbell.com/Vote for the Underdog if you want Real Change that has always been promised but never given. It’s time that District 5 votes for someone that is from the same neighborhoods, schools and state they’re from. That has to pay there college loans, struggle to find jobs to just pay bills and hopes that one day buy a house. I’m the everyday people not wealthy, just the average person that cares about his community and country. https://melvincampbell.com/
