AARP South Carolina Statement on Ethics Reform
HOME AND COMMUNITY-BASED SERVICES–Improve funding for key home and community- based long-term care programs that help seniors stay in their homes and remain independent. South Carolina ranked 4th in the nation for the most seniors 60 and older at risk of hunger. Now we must fight for Lt. Governor Glenn McConnell’s request for $4.7 million so that older folks will not go hungry or miss their doctor’s appointments.

The move comes after AARP intervened in SCE&G's 2012 rate hike questioning the effectiveness of the eWNA.
