Or regular benefits while theyre on active duty status. These same members of the militaries could be get the benefits for 9 11 response and conflict in iraq or related extraordinary circumstances. However, because covid19 response is not explicitly spelled out in the annual salary ordinance, they have been called into active duty and are being shortchanged. So today im introducing an ordinance to amend the salary ordinance to allow these individuals to receive the difference between the amount of the individuals gross military pay and the amount of gross pay that the individual would have received as a city officer or employee. Had that officer or employee worked his or her normal schedule, benefits and retirement credit. I believe that everyone is fighting the covid19 pandemic wherever they are is fighting to save us all. If any community in this country is exposed, we are all exposed. Those who have been called into active duty for covid19 relief should receive the same benefits as

Today marks 105 years since the start of the Armenian Genocide horrors in which 1500000 armenians were massacred by Ottoman Turks however turkey a successor of the Ottoman Empire denies the deaths constitute genocide claiming the toll has been inflated and that those who were killed were simply victims of the civil war but a new page in history has turned highlighting what historians have said all along that these atrocities were in fact genocide and the 1st one of the 20th century r.

These individuals who are bravely keeping our communities safe in the most destructive event in our lifetime should not have their pay diminished.

Every week that goes by these individuals are further penalized while they work to defeat this pandemic.

As part of the federal cares act to address the threats of the covid19 pandemic, the program launched on april 3rd to provide relief to Small Busin

Becausbecause what happens is tt this is so massive, so massive, that a lot of the enforcement happens from the peer pressure and they see what other people are doing. So at this moment, even for this order, we dont have a Massive Campaign yet to really, really enforce how important it is to not be out. As the chief Health Official of this town, who is not dr. Colfax, how are you relaying that to the mayor, to other off
