Representative Roger Kirby of Lake City talks with podcast host Frank Knapp about rural South Carolina's serious problems with access to healthcare, education, and transportation. The closing of the Georgetown paper mill in December has caused a real problem for the timber industry in his district. Mr. Kirby is very concerned about potential loss of federal revenue to South Carolina especially regarding Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. How the legislature will deal with possible Medicaid cuts will be critical. Any new tariffs by the Federal government also threaten his farmers. Economic development in rural South Carolina is the focus of a House ad hoc committee. He also shares his background in Off-Broadway plays and being the Music Minister at his church.
