We face many challenges in South Carolina. I believe it is important that the South Carolina General Assembly prioritize and focus our energy on the real issues impacting South Carolina. The core issues that I will continue to work to address include:

*Finding adequate and stable funding sources to fix South Carolina roads and bridges
*Recruiting and expanding economic development and job creation opportunities (specifically focusing on rural communities like District 90)
*Reforming the Public Education Funding System
*Raising Teacher Pay to the national average
*Expanding healthcare coverage and options (specifically focusing on rural communities like District 90)
*Supporting South Carolina farmers and the Agriculture Industry
*Reforming South Carolina's Criminal Justice system to ensure that all South Carolinians are protected and treated fairly
