Dallas Express recently launched an investigation into the whereabouts of Republican Congresswoman Kay Granger, who has represented Texas's 12th Congressional District since 1997. The investigation followed reports that she had been absent from office for months.
Dallas Express found out from a local resident that Granger was not missing but instead residing at an assisted living facility specializing in memory care.
Here's more from the reporting:
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. However, we were not permitted to conduct an interview regarding the current spending debate in the House of Representatives and how or if Ms. Granger planned to vote.
Taylor Manziel who is the Assistant Executive Director for the senior living facility acknowledged to The Dallas Express that "This is her home."
It remains unclear why Granger's staff declined to disclose her condition to the public, especially given the lack of representation during a crucial voting period in Congress.
