God bless everyone in Fairfield County who is stepping up for our seniors! 🙏 I'm working hard on this issue with local leaders, the CEO of Central Midlands and the State Department on Aging. Plus, as Chair of the Central Midlands Council of Governments, I’m collaborating directly with our staff and County Council to find long-term solutions.

We won’t turn our backs on our seniors, but we need sustainable funding. With the amount of taxes paid by Dominion Energy, local industries, and our residents, these shortages simply shouldn't be happening. Last year, Councilwoman Swearingen did an amazing job raising funds to prevent our seniors from being cut from services, but we have to fix the root of the problem.

So much happened with the county budget before the current council took over that implementing zero-based budgeting for at least one year is long overdue. Let’s urge County Council to dive deep into the budget, account for every single dollar, and make the right changes, while communicating with our elected officials at the Federal level. Our seniors and children should always come first! Will try my best.
