I received the “Legislator of the Year” award from the Georgia Council on Aging. I was proud to work on SB 84, which provides protective measures to prevent the financial exploitation of elderly citizens in Georgia.

“ I am honored and humbled that the GCOA selected me for this award during my first legislative session,” said Rep. Barrett. “This award serves as a reminder of the importance of our collective responsibility to prioritize and address the needs of our aging population. As a legislator, I am committed to working closely with organizations to develop and implement policies that safeguard the rights, health, and dignity of our senior residents.”
