Sanford urged merging the Employment Security Commission with Commerce to better place unemployed workers, called capping spending and debt reduction a priority, and pushed for government restructuring including governor control of more agencies. He urged a cigarette tax increase to fund income tax cuts and urged voters to influence federal debt debates while praising lawmakers who secured Boeing work in North Charleston. He also proposed placing the governor and lieutenant governor on the same ticket and allowing some statewide offices to be appointed.
