• Safe assistant living facilities in Va. for low income seniors
    In the Shanandoah and Rockingham County of Va. we have assistant living facilities that don't meet Va. building code and these private places have approx. 25 individuals living in sub-standard conditions that is barbaric, dangerous, and unhealthy for low income seniors that are receiving auxiliary grant from the state. I have petition Governor McDonnell, Senator Mark Warner, and numerous seniors agencies and getting no where with all of them. It seem they are more concern about ridiculous projects than taking care of the most vulnerable people of this country. I need help from lawyers, politicians who will give me some support in making sure these unfit facilities meet Va. building code standards or build new facilities for these people. The people of Va. should be ashamed to have such facilities operating in their state. I come from the poorest state in the US which is Maine and I wish some Virginians would visit the beautiful assistant living place the poor seniors of Maine live in. They are palaces as compare to what they have in Va. The places I visited in Va. you need to be a millionaire in order to live in them. They require a monthly income of $2500.00 per month and up. Who has this kind of income today unless you are wealthy? Also is your organization effective?

  • Senators Warren and Cowan: Do NOT vote in favor of proposed change in CPI for current and future...
    Congress will vote on a proposed change to how social security benefits are calculated. Using chained CPI instead of CPI-W will reduce benefits to current and future retirees. Even Paul Ryan has said this will have a very small impact on deficit reduction; however, the impact will be far greater on individual retirees who are dependent on social security. One Republican congressman called it, "a shocking attack on seniors." Contact your senators and don't let this travesty happen.

    There is no public transportation in Georgetown, Texas to Austin, Texas. Most folks shop, eat, and must to go to Austin for entertainment and nightlife since Georgetown will not allow much of the above.
