- I am a determined and proactive person, who has worked hard throughout her entire life.
- I want people to know that the partisanship that has permeated our political system in the past several years cannot, and should no longer, be tolerated. I will serve the people of South Carolina as a Representative, who believes in reaching across the aisle to make sure that the trust the citizens of this state have placed in me will not be in vain.
- We cannot be effective unless we first know the concerns of the people we represent. I will always be available to listen to their concerns, and to bring those issues back to the State House.
It is essential that we treat our Veterans with the deference they deserve for serving our country. We cannot allow them to be homeless or to not have access to the healthcare they urgently need.
