Editor, The Smithfield Times:

Thank you, U.S. Sens. Tim Kaine and Mark Warner, for putting people first and helping us during the worst pandemic in our country’s history.

Thank you for supporting us with legislation that kept our economy from collapsing during the most difficult periods of this crisis.

Also thanks to your political party for legacy legislation that created Social Security, Medicare, the Affordable Care Act, food stamps and federal student loans, just to name a few.

Thanks for your recent legislative initiatives that have brought the pandemic under control, provided financial stimulus to individuals and families, and helped businesses large and small to survive.

Also thanks for working to improve our environment as well as rebuilding our country’s aged infrastructure.

Most of all, thank you for protecting our country’s most prized hallmark democracy while helping Ukraine to protect theirs as well.

Keep up the good work, Sens. Warner and Kaine!
