On Wednesday, April 1, New Life Christian Fellowship Church head pastor Dr. Dexter Easley hosted an interactive virtual town hall with U.S. Senator Tim Scott covering COVID-19 and the recently passed, $2 trillion Care Act’s effects on the Lowcountry – a bill Sen. Scott called “the most consequential piece of legislation in the last 50 years.”

Then scroll on to see pictures of Dr. Easley and Sen. Scott during the town hall and Lowcountry Forever on-site reporter (Heaven 100.1’s own) The Chef interviewing Tim Scott during the breaks.
