Gregg Morris, a citizen advocate for the New York State Healthy Workplace Bill has initiated a petition and is working with the online petition organization MoveOn to highlight the need for this important bill to address workplace bullying.
The petition found here:
http://petitions.moveon.org/
has met its first milestone of 50 signees several days ago but MoveOn has requested more signees before they will expand the petition to other parts of the northeast and directly to members in New York State.
Folks in the NYC tristate area who work in New York State but live in surrounding states will also benefit from passage of the bill. If you live in Connecticut, Pennsylvania and New Jersey but work in New York State, please sign the petition and send it to others you know who do too!
In Greggs own words:
I do volunteer work for New York Healthy Workplace Advocates such as trek to Albany on lobbying missions and spread the word anyway I can. The petition is independent of them but it was started to support what they are doing and will be doing.
I was on the ropes about two years ago, blinded by the College Administration that once wanted me to be chair of my department, and just as panic was mounting over threats to my tenure, I discovered NYHWA, which provides links and lots of information on its websiteand facebook page– and that info helped me develop a strategy to get the administration to back off (at least for now).

I saw some of the videos of the Decemver pep meeting and they were powerful presentations. I don’t understand why they didnt allow people to speak about their situations. nor fair at all. I got a good mind to go to the next one in January and give the PEP a piece of my mind.
