Notes from Sen Jack Hill

The Blade Plus in Swainsboro GA published online Notes from the Senate by Senator Jack Hill which mentioned our success!
The Independent Care Waiver Program for Disabilities and Traumatic Brain Injuries would receive over $8.5 million to add 152 new slots, the Mental Retardation Development Disabilities Waiting List would receive $2.6 million in state funds to unlock 925 waiver slots, libraries across the state would receive $2 million to purchase books, and $16.5 million would be provided for 3,751 new prison beds to reduce county jail backlogs.
The paper should read...
The Independent Care Waiver Program for Disabilities and Traumatic Brain Injuries would receive over $3.2 million in state funds to add 152 new slots, the Mental Retardation Development Disabilities Waiting List would receive over $11.5 million in state funds to unlock 1,500 waiver services, libraries across the state would receive $2 million to purchase books, and $16.5 million would be provided for 3,751 new prison beds to reduce county jail backlogs.
