Aiken Legislator Reflects on Checklist for Change and Budget Reforms
In my words the House faces issues important to Aiken and the state. I supported and the House passed 14 of 16 Checklist for Change items including Teacher Protection Act and income tax relief. The Fiscal Discipline Act aims to restrain spending in good times to ease past cuts. I was named to the Labor Commerce and Industry Committee to reduce over regulation and attract jobs. I look forward to another term when the next session starts in January.
