Noose in NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace’s garage
The placing of a noose in NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace’s garage is a heinous and cowardly act.
It’s been more than half a century since Republicans in Congress worked across the aisle with President Lyndon Johnson to pass the historic Civil Rights Act of 1964.
We need to work together, despite party registration, once again to say unequivocally that there is no place in America for hate crimes like this.
We support the investigation into this matter by NASCAR and the Justice Department, and urge the strongest punishment possible for those who are found responsible.

All three of the community leaders have offered educational locations within the districts they are looking to represent. Each one suggested specific sites for the statue so that future generations are able to continue learning about the important work of Teddy Roosevelt and the impact his life had on the course of our nation.

Town of Brookhaven Officials Offer Solutions to the Governor for Common Sense Reopening
Rather than choosing industries or business types for various stages of reopening, the Brookhaven Business Recovery Task Force recommends that use of square footage should be the guiding force in restarting our economy. For instance, if your building is XXX square feet, you can safely have X number of employees/patrons in your facility. These numbers would be calculated so that the maximum number of employees/patrons would ensure a six-foot buffer between people. This would allow small businesses to open at the same time as their larger competitors, while affording the same protections for their employees and customers through social distancing restrictions, sanitizing and requirements for masks and face coverings.

Numbers Show GOP Policies Better for Public Health.
For years, the Democrat Party has done nothing but give lip service touting they are the party that cares for low-income and minority residents, but the numbers show they never had the personal interests, safety and well being of these groups as their concern — only their votes. Crime stats bear this out as well.
Republicans have fought for years to protect seniors, ensure quality health care offering choice as opposed to failed socialized medicine. Republicans believe like Ronald Reagan that the best social program is a job, not a welfare system that counts on people becoming dependent on the state and fostering unhealthy lifestyles that lead to diabetes, obesity, asthma, heart disease and the other underlying health conditions that are now claiming so many lives due to this COVID virus.
