Campaign themes

2011

In an interview with local media Bryan emphasized several key policy positions:[2]

  • Jobs: Bryan described his top priority as creating and retaining jobs.
  • Education: "We need to improve our schools by supporting our teachers and giving them the resources they need to teach the kids in the class."
  • Rainy Day Fund: "I believe that we need to build up the Rainy Day Fund right now. Over the past couple of years, they're draining it, and we're losing it. I believe we can balance the budget without dipping into the Rainy Day Fund."
  • Abortion: Bryan also wants to ensure that Mississippi remains, "the safest place for an unborn child."
