RN LICENSE UPDATED TO 6/29/10 & EXTENDED

I have my Pleading Summary Started and have been to US District Court - Southern District SD website for Rules, Forms, can do 'Pro Bono' & obtain Attorney assist. I know this is too long but so far:
INCOMPLETE RENEWAL- FINGERPRINTS REQUIRED WITH
REGISTERED NURSING LICENSE REFUSED RENEWAL -
RESULTING IN VIOLATION OF UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION AMENDMENTS IV and XIV; CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION ARTICLE I: SECTIONS 1; 3:2(3); 7 a,b; 13; 26.; AND
AN INDIVIDUAL’S RIGHT TO WORK; AND
CAUSING UNDESERVED FINANCIAL HARDSHIP BY DECLARING TO STATE DEPARTMENT OF UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE “DISQUALIFIED” FROM RECIEVING INSURANCE  WHICH MAY NOW INCLUDE LOSING HOME ; AND
CAUSING DIFFICULTY WITH EMPLOYMENT APPLICATIONS FOR ANY EMPLOYER LOOKING AT MY RN LICENSE STATUS WITHOUT ANY SOURCE FOR APPEALING BRN'S FORCE REGULATION 1419 RN RENEWAL.

I have the location: CA CODE OF REGULATIONS; TITLE 16. PROFESSIONAL AND VOCATIONAL REGULATIONS; DIVISION 14. BOARD OF REGISTERED NURSING; ARTICLE 2. REGISTRATION AND EXAMINATION; Paragraph 1419. Authorities cited: Sections 2708.1; 2715, 2761(a)(4) & 2761f) B&P Code.  References are same codes with 2765 & 2811. I HAVE COPIES none of which address a RN who has Never Committed A Crime!

I would like to make another point regarding unemployment here in CA: Hiring is often outsourced so that Macy's, PetSmart, Sears, and large Corporations DO NOT DIRECTLY HIRE ANYONE! Application and hiring - or not - are handled by the outsourcing company so that any reason - including failing a 'Personality Test' can be included based on the outsource - not the company. The company ONLY uses the Outsource's decision to eliminate individuals from positions.

When outsourced, a criminal record search is also performed and prison history MUST BE STATED; along with driving records for non-driving positions, personal credit records. You would be amazed at the number of companies requiring this.  That's why 'craigslist' is used - it is the old fashioned method of hiring - sans the 'ladies of the night part' craiglist warns everyone about!

There will be more - including - a statement contained on the Application for Census Worker from the Federal Government who also didn't hire me & regarded me as suspect when I copied the application statement, although the Fed. would also see the BRN statement re fingers.

Point: Any Californian who applies for a company position with an Outsourcing Application Process - faces a MANDATORY examination of all  the above - or SHALL NOT BE CONSIDERED FOR THE POSITION!

How would you or anyone else like to be an individual who indeed went to prison for a crime, took responsibility and paid the consequences; turned himself around and is as law abiding as anyone else..., but SHALL ALWAYS to the end of time - have to state his criminal record!  Absent Trust and Respect of the Individual that is intrinsic to a Socialist mind-set. This view with the same group who doesn't want to punish and does want rehab. for the poor wrong-doer; but can't and won't recognize when that same rehab. has worked!

How does a large company with its management - not have anything to do with hiring the employee that will represent what the company represents? I wouldn't hire from an outsourcing company, but then that's probably why I'm not hired! I ask questions like: "How do you fail a personality test!?".

The Shall Provide.....or do not work in your profession...or do not continue working in your profession - 25 of them continue, but in another location of the Code!! In one case, a law student came to CA to finish his law degree. He was from AZ where he had already completed both the fingerprints and State-Federal Criminal Record Reviews. After explaining about AZ, he was greeted here in CA with either you do both - again - or you don't finish law school!  Of course, he complied as does about 98% of all the professionals required to perform this act of bureaucratic regulation. Many professionals - mortgage and real estate professionals (they aren't on the list of 25 - I don't think) agree that they should be fingerprinted because they believe the "the greater good Socialist mindset": - if we identify, create identities of approximately 99.8% of ordinary, pursuit of happiness citizens of the State of California and the United States of America, Then we can catch the remaining 0.2% of bad guys....only It Doesn't Work That Way! But the Socialists will never tell! Because Obama & lemmings want centralized, integrated computers with standardized forms throughout the nation -contained in ObamaCare- which has also made the above 'fingers & criminals' a Federal Law in the same ObamaCare.

Now think of the lowest paid, hardest working healthcare individual. They go by companion-sitter-CNA, CHHA, family friend or member; and when they are TOLD "Do it or else..!!"; you don't need me to say what they do!  Interestingly, same is true of the LVN's, Psych Techs and RN's who also happen to be 'breadwinners'.

Having said this, there are RN's who objected to the force based on the force alone - not knowing why - since too many elected and unelected Americans Do Not Have Any Idea of the content or purpose of Both The Declaration of Independence (I like "D. of Principle" or 12 Lessons = freedom because our Founders already beat George III; but 224 years later with absent public education, with public moving freely about their chosen 'pursuit of happiness' without understanding the 12 lessons of Responsibility which preserve our Nation for the Posterity the Founders worked, gave their lives, fortunes and sacred honor so 'Today's bunch of 2010 individuals' (with as it turns out - The British, Canadians, French, Japanese) may continue to enjoy America before Obama's no ethics or religion arrived - although it had already been well established in public education by removing The Bible and Religion to substitute it with social groups thinking and agreement with or without any facts!  

I digress: RN's often say: "Paycheck or Fingerprints, No Brainer!"; Mortgage Modification and others say "I wouldn't be working here unless I had the fingerprints and ..".  Of course, there is the "What are you hiding?" that pervades any employer regardless. Then there is the "That is the stupidest decision you have ever made!" = angry because knows what will happen; and also says "If you do this, you'll never get your license back!" because it was before the July 15, 2009 change in the Board: 6 of 7 members were replaced; and the wording changed; but not the fingerprints..because that is left over from "The Greater Good" and as noted above - Employees of Bureaus, Departments, Commissions may pledge support of Both the Constitutions, but that has no relation to ethics or knowledge of content.

This whole Magila has been more of an education than I thought and I absolutely did not start out to have any of the above happen. I simply wanted to point-out the content of the 4 and 14 Amendments - realized from Joseph Andrews that I would need the CA Constitution.  1419's Renewal of RN License is an Insult to any American, & many RN's knew it.  It is also an incredible demonstration of ignorance of the Department, Bureau, Commission where even common sense would indicate that appeal, probable cause, and no citizen has more or less privileges or immunities as another citizen or group of citizens (which I believe, with Article 15 from Steve Poizner can catch the closed-shop privileges of Unions including a retirement far and away from any private business, even many larger corp.).  This is longer than I intended, but I wanted to let you know the extent these ideas of "greater good" have invaded sovereign individuals... and may even be a reason why some give up job searches!!!

Tomorrow, Thurs. at 1:45 is -Finally - my Appeal #2 appointment with Administrative Attorney who will receive a copy of the above. Have to sell antiques for gas and also for medications.
Thank you, Catherine

Registered Nurse License Renewal, The U.S and State Constitutions, and The Board of Registered Nursing

01/19/2009: Since I publish this RN Issue, I've had a phone call from a staffing agency wondering if and when I could work for them in a hospital, I answered that I wasn't active as a R.N. right now due to litigation. Because the Nursing community is small and very open to rumor, let me clarify: The litigation is Not Against Me! My R. N. is correctly renewed, but not in my possession - so I am unable to work. I will update this blog as 1419 continues..




ISSUES: Paragraph 1419 Registered Nurse Renewal of License ( CODE attached):   My Registered Nurse License is Renewed with continuing education units completed and the fee paid.   Demand for, at my expense, full-set of fingerprints exclusively from the Department of Justice, with State and Federal criminal record reviews is Un-Constitutional both at the State and Federal levels of government. The demand in combination with seizure of my 38 year old Registered Nurse License is coercion; i.e. either you get fingerprinted or we seize your right to work - R.N. License. U.S. Amendment IV/State Article I:13  states that security of person,houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable search and seizures, shall not be violated, no Warrants but upon Probable Cause. Paragraph 1419 went into effect in 1985, 24 years ago. New RN-LVN graduates are routinely processed through these two demands. March 1, 2009, The Board of Registered Nursing (BRN) renewed the requirement of this Article 2.Registration and Examination, paragraph 1419.     

            The Sections of both Constitutions are involved because there is no "probable cause" for the fingerprints or the criminal records check. There is no 'due process' even if a crime or past crime were involved; and 'no appeal' in any case. There is No Crime in refusing to give permission to the Board of Registered Nursing for either of the above demands. Because this Regulation is just that, there was no State Legislative review for this Regulation. There is no reason to search for my fingerprints since there is no record anywhere of my fingerprints, and because 24 out of my 38 years as a Registered Nurse have elapsed. Security of person involving my fingerprints: for a Registered Nurse, hands and fingers are tools of assessment and evaluation of a patient's condition. Security of property and affects is the license itself: It is properly renewed, but because I have refused the above, I do not have, in my personal possession, a Correctly Dated Registered Nurse License, I therefore cannot work as a Registered Nurse. I am single. My R.N. License is my primary income which pays my expenses and my mortgages. "Affects" also include my 5 years of working as a Diabetic Educator and member of the American Association of Diabetic Educators, the last 2 of which where as a full-time Diabetic Educator. It takes 5 yrs. for a Home Health, visiting nurse to complete the hours of direct patient diabetic teaching care required to become certified. There is a Certification examination to complete. My current RN Case Manager and Diabetic Educator position pays me less than many RN's with my years of clinical and administrative experience; but to be a Certified Diabetic Educator means more responsibility, more independence, and the opportunity to expand my RN work into a field of expertise which requires my clinical as well as my psychosocial teaching skills and is very satisfying to me in accepting the challenges of the patient and family with diabetes. The loss of pay and increase in debt were well worth the risk of not passing my Certification Exam. I was also able to contribute two patient care articles which were requested to be published in "Home Health Care Nurse" and in "Clinical Diabetes", but July 31st came first. 

          My license expired on 7/31/09.  I can't count the number of patients, nurse and personal friends who felt that the care I gave and the money I earned was much more important than "This is over a set of fingerprints!!??" from my mortgage company. But for me, I had just completed a course called "A Guide for Learning and Teaching The Declaration of Independence and The U.S. Constitution" via www.teachconstitution.org .  Course Goals were not only to understand the impact of original documents on our Founders along with their roles in Our Nation's two, unique in the world documents which Mr. Andrews calls the Birth Certificate - for Our Declaration - - and the "Owner's Manual" for Our Constitution,  but also how Both Documents are as Relevant January 2, 2010 as the year they were written. Over several months that followed, I was to find out how very true these goals were and was often amazed, even dumfounded, at the insight of Our Founders into human nature, the applied effect that human nature has on elected or in-charge leaders, and why the Constitution was not designed to be specific; but as a guide to Prevent The Federal Government from becoming too big because another group of American's expectation that its big size could somehow manage individual's lives better than the individual or even each sovereign State which is closer to the persons and the problems; or that taxpayer resources distributed over Fifty States and Territories, is somehow, more efficient than the same taxpayer resource used by each sovereign State. The Constitution also Prevents the sovereign States from interfering with Our issues as a Nation and specifically are duties of the Federal Government. First and the absolute reason both of these documents were written: The Declaration and The Constitution protects each Individual American natural or naturalized; and with the Declaring that "All Men Are Created Equal....". 

         We are in what many Americans hope is a correction, from power and money in the hands of a few, although the last word on Obama's "Patient Protection and Affordable Act" is not in yet. This 'Act' is the essence of the very problem our Founders tried to prevent US(A) from experiencing first hand as they had, or had observed in the world era of 1776.

          The course is important to the seizure of my R.N. License for several reasons: 1) I realized that many of my friends, family, co-workers, leaders had no idea what these documents contained, nor what they mean to each and every individual American; many answered "If I have to chose between my paycheck and my license; paycheck wins every time!" 2) Upon visiting in person the Board of Registered Nursing, the clerks managing compliance to this 1419 were working by rote, had taken a Oath to support both Constitutions and had no idea what the documents (including CA Constitution) contained; and further, stated there is no way around this demand and stay an active R.N.; 3) Wrote and called my State Representatives, which by now the budget stale mate is in full swing, so I could see the absence of these documents in the arguments presented. They listened to me and explained that legislation was closed until 2010 and also that "They have the Codes" that make 1419 enforcable. When I said "Then the Codes must be wrong because the Constitution is the Supreme Law of Land which  CA Constitution recognizes", they said we are sorry, but there is nothing we can do now. Even made a "Whistle Blower" report to California State Auditor.  As of October, I am to fax my work to them, but unemployed = no money. 4) My 8/9/09 Unemployment Insurance application is made with "Career Change" as part of the application. I am not and cannot work as a Registered Nurse - 'disqualified' or not! There are also many job positions in and out of health care which I cannot do because of Regulations like 1419. There are several thousand of Californians who also must agree to the fingerprints-criminal record checks or not be hired; or not have a professional license renewed with the use of different CA Code numbers corresponding to twenty-five other professions involved through this type of Regulation.

           My personal goals were two: 1) To Educate, though actual experience, what happens when the State of California, Department of Consumer Affairs, Board of Registered Nursing's requirement 1491 becomes challenged as un-Constitutional.  In writing about the events with my R.N. License, I also could demonstrate that Our Two Documents are Written "It is the excellency of this Constitution that it is expressed with brevity, and in the plain common language of mankind. Oliver Ellsworth 1787". Our Founders fully intended that every individual start learning about these documents from elementary school 'all the way- each year' through college and beyond... Because the Declaration gives a 'why' for Our Nation and the World we live in; along with a 'how to..' Constitution application of issue solving to the 'Parents' - We the people- as Unique Individuals, elected, appointed, leaders, down-to-earth- you and I - Our name: Americans (Natural or Naturalized). The instruction of Our Two Documents is California Law commonly ignored or distorted in public education; but not in Charter- Home Schooling.  And show that "..Whenever the protection of the public is inconsistent with other interests 

sought to be promoted, the protection of the public shall be paramount.(Adm. B andC Code 2708.1 below)", is an incorrect application of the demand for my or any 
licensed individual's fingerprints or criminal records. 
California Constitution Article I:7(b) states: "A citizen or class of citizens may not be granted privileges or immunities not granted on the same terms to all citizens. Privileges or immunities granted by the Legislature may be altered or revoked."  Not only is a Registered Nurse a citizen, but also a Consumer. This use of Code 2708.1 singles a 'class of citizen' - consumer out as requiring fingerprints and criminal record exams and fails to protect the 'R.N class of consumer' from the time, quality, education, application of knowledge and problem solving to the benefit of patient care, rewards from applying education and knowledge as a service.
2) Get my R.N returned without fingerprints or criminal exams.

     I started this goal by writing an Appeal (not allowed in the demands of 1419) via "Customer Service Evaluation Form-08/12/09" with attached letter to BRN describing much of what I have already said plus a little more emotion because now it's 12 days since my last paycheck; and I put my Unemployment Insurance (UI) Application into the works on 08/09/09 and knew from friend's experience, I would be lucky to hear anything before 09/15/09! There was no response to the Service Evaluation from BRN; but that's OK. I reasoned, when one out of several thousands R.N.'s complain - it is unusual. Actually, after another ICU-RN,BSN, at the BRN Office reported she had complained regarding privacy. Then the Clerk admitted there were several complaints about 1491. This 12 yr. experienced Intensive Care Nurse working a small rural hospital in northern part of State, was told she would not be allowed to continue employment if she did not comply to the 1419 demand.  

           On July 15, 2009, 6 of 7 Board members were replaced and the video of the new members swearing in with the Governor was on his website. The wording changed in the BRN's enforcement of 1419, but not the requirements.  I also published on the 'little corner' of my Profile in Face Book, exactly what happened as it happened throughout most of the events.

           On 9/18, I was interviewed by UI contact and told of my weekly amount due and that she would authorize to "cut a check. But wasn't sure if it would go though." She didn't say more. On 9/29, I went to the UI because more than 14 days had passed and no UI check. By phone call, I found that I had been 'Disqualified' from UI benefits by the BRN. I had post-dated my mortgage check for 9/30/09 which I called to cancel.  I made a new Application for UI from a previous RN visiting nurse organization when there was no question about the issue of my RN License Renewal. There had been no contact in writing from Unemployment Insurance 8/16 award letter to 10/18/09 appeal letter.  On 10/15, I was informed by a Mrs. Wilson, of UI, that I may not make a new employment application until the 'disqualified' was removed from the old application (retroactive Regulation!?). She also made some comments about due dates, stop dates that made no more sense than the question: "Did you earn more than $1350 for the week June 27 - July 31?". That question turn-out to be OK to ask, to dis-allow the new application I could not make. Nothing else made much sense either, but she just said "Those are the rules.".   I sent in the Appeal from 8/8/09 as well as the appeal from 10/15 on two of the UI forms for same. On the first of November, I was informed by my loan modification company that my loan modification was Discontinued for no payment 9/15. That the loan would revert back to the old loan requirements. I have not be able to make a mortgage payment since 9/15 on the first mortgage. Around the middle of November, I was informed my UI Appeal in Los Angeles, was redirected back to San Diego. Upon calling San Diego, informed they wouldn't call me until around late January 2010.  No unemployment insurance from 08/09/09 to 01/28/10. Then Mrs. Wilson changed date to 11/1 which I have yet to hear whether that means UI gets out of Aug. 9 to Oct.31. Also, UI Department has taken over 'discipline by the Board' from the Board of Registered Nursing in supporting the Board's determination that I am 'disqualified as unemployed' because my license is renewed properly, but I have refused the above 'Demands' a.k.a.1419. The BRN (hear-say) also feels financial problems is not their fault. That my decision to refuse submission to the demands of 1491 has the outcome of no unemployment insurance and the resulting financial problems; although there is no location for a specific, written "..refusing finger...& record.. will be disciplined by the Board.." - not another CA Department. 

          Another goal must be added because what was the unemployment insurance awarded me as of 08/09, would have helped first and second mortgages was not to be; and has put my home into the thirty-five days before foreclosure. Upon setting up this article on "Registered Nurse License Renewal, The U.S. and State Constitutions, and The Board of Registered Nursing", I have looked up the Codes the Board used to Justify the fingerprints and criminal records exams.  The Codes are attached at the bottom of this article: Business and Professions Codes: Section 2708.1, 2715, 2761(a)(4), 2761(f), 2811. Penal Code 11105(b)(10).  As you may see, not one of these Codes has anything to do with my R.N. License seizure or my security as a person. 

                        So I leave you here.  No more can be said. Not nothing more can be done by me.

Discipline includes, but is not limited to, suspension, revocation, voluntary surrender, probation, reprimand, or any other restriction on a license held.

(e) Failure to provide all of the information required by this section renders any application for renewal incomplete and not eligible for renewal.
