On the recordFebruary 6, 2020
February is American Heart Month, a month where we especially recognize and promote positive heart health. Currently, 302,000 people in South Carolina have coronary heart disease. I am thankful for the great work of the National Coalition for Women with Heart Disease and the American Heart Association for their steps to spread awareness about heart disease, the number one killer of men and women in America. I am grateful that, in the Second Congressional District, we have many incredible events to recognize heart health, including the Heart Walk, held in Aiken and the Midlands. These walks raise critical funds to help save lives from heart disease. As a volunteer with the Lexington County Heart Association, I know firsthand of the dedicated personnel. I appreciate American Heart Association Executive Director Crystal Kirkland of the Midlands and Jackie Lipscomb of the American Heart Association-CSRA. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. Congratulations, President Donald Trump, for your deserved exoneration. ____________________
