Demand The Reinstatement Of Ryan Young At The Del Rey Oaks Safeway Store

Submitted by Civic Feeds on Mon, 05/21/2012 - 06:00

Safeway has suspended an employee at a store in Del Rey Oaks, near Monterey, California, despite the fact that the man was called a hero by police for stopping a domestic assault in the store.

On April 21, Ryan Young stepped between a man and his girlfriend when they were fighting near the meat counter at the Safeway store. Young later told police the man they arrested, Quyen Van Tran, was kicking the woman, who was five or six months pregnant. When Tran didn't back down, Young struck him.

Now Safeway has suspended Young without pay for supposedly violating company policy.

Save New Jersey's Clean Energy Program

New Jersey's clean energy programs have reduced pollution, saved households money and jumpstarted a clean energy economy in tough economic times. In fact, thanks to our investments, New Jersey has more solar energy than any state except California. With these investments have come green, local jobs like installing solar panels on homes and weatherizing buildings.

But now Governor Christie wants to raid more than $210 million in funding for can energy programs in this year's budget and pull out of the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI). Every year New Jersey sits out of RGGI, the state loses $40 million for clean energy. All told, Christie has robbed clean energy of almost $700 million since he took office.

State legislators have the power to prevent Christie's raid on clean energy, but they need to use it. Tell the New Jersey legislature to stand up to Christie and block his raids on clean energy programs.
