People of Whitehaven be warned. Rev Richard Hamlet and GLOBAL MINISTRIES FOUNDATION ARE SLUMLORDS!!!!

This is the individual and the company that were the former owners of WARREN, TULANE,GOODWILL VILLAGES and other problem properties where residents lived in horrible conditions while Hamlet and his CORRUPT organization lined their pockets with tax payer dollars while repairs were never made and residents lived with bedbugs, mice, rats, backed up plumbing, bad electrical wiring, aggressive security and a host of other issues.

GMF has had contracts terminated by HUD and was under investigation by the HUD-OIG and the SEC.

Do not allow these SLUMLORDS to buy the goodwill of the community, hurting families while pretending to be a ministry of faith.

"You don't take this history away from African Americans in this city, that's not what you do. That's embarrassing."

RED ALERT!!

Now the extreme right wants to ADD similar punitive measures to thousands of families who are on TENNCARE!

Call Gov Bill Haslam at (615) 741-2001 and urge him to withdraw his support from this despicable effort to add work requirements to Tenncare recipients and that TANF funds should be used to alleviate poverty not to try and deny coverage.

The state could pay more to kick people off their health care than they would to give them health care in the first place.
