Thank you, Gov. Inos

Posted on Feb 26 2014

Tears of thankfulness fell from eyes as I read the news about Rota receiving assistance in getting food for the island’s residents. To some people who might not understand this situation, ask yourself this: Imagine that you live on Rota and receiving food stamp, how much food can you purchase if the food price is 50 percent higher? Can your family afford to buy all the food you will need for one month? If you’re a middle income family, how can you survive if the price of gas is $6.20 and utility cost is $300 to $400?

Thank you Gov. Inos for answering one of the questions I asked. I am grateful that you haven’t forgotten your birthplace and I would be more grateful if you could give us an update on the active government employee interest status. Up until today, the only media reports are the attorney’s fees and the settlement agreement on the employee’s contributions. We are still waiting for you to come and tell us what’s going on. Please don’t wait until the last minute. Our pencil needs some sharpening before election time.
