A Republican Congresswoman who has been “missing” for the past six months has finally been found.
Rep. Kay Granger has served as the representative for Texas’s 12th Congressional District since 1997.
However, she suddenly disappeared from the public eye around July this year, when she cast her final vote against an amendment to reduce the salary of Deputy Assistant Administrator for Pesticide Programs to $1.
A curious reporter at the local Dallas Express newspaper did some digging on Granger’s whereabouts and has finally been able to give her constituents some answers.
[…]We then received a tip from a Granger constituent who shared that the Congresswoman has been residing at a local memory care and assisted living home for some time after having been found wandering lost and confused in her former Cultural District/West 7th neighborhood.
The Dallas Express team visited the facility to confirm whether Granger was residing there and to inquire about how she planned to vote on the spending bill. Upon arrival, two employees confirmed that Granger is indeed living at the facility.
Sure, absolutely that can and does happen.
But this is not a hypothetical situation. She has family. She has friends. She had an entire staff that worked for her. She is not only a public figure she is a part of the US government. She represents a portion of the US population. Everyone that knew her all decided not to tell anyone what was going on, for a very long time.
Her family probably wanted that nice, fat congressional salary to keep rolling in.
I definitely believe that could be part of it.
Edit: this is completely wrong, I misunderstood her position. This is insane.
It should be noted that she is not a part of the US government, she is part of the Texas government. They are separate things.
