I am a mom of four children
and they were all in elementary school when the "No Child Left Behind Act"
was passed
This mandate from the federal government was intrusive of our states' rights and
local control of our educational process.
So I decided to run for office because I wanted to have a voice and I
thought that i could make a difference because
no one else was speaking up
On the Charleston County School Board
I stood up to the bureaucracy the establishment
and i said no
no to government bureaucracy, no to increased unsustainable programs, no to
taxation.
I want to go to Washington and do the same thing.
My husband and I run three small businesses.
It's been proven
that when you reduce the burden on the taxpayer
the economy grows
and government doesn't create jobs people do.
But the problem that I have now is I don't feel like we're being heard
that we have a voice at the federal level, that our representatives are paying attention to
us.
it's go with the flow do as your
told and nothing gets done.
We elect you to work
for us
and that's who you need to answer to.
Being a conservative woman I am often accused of being outspoken
and I am because I am standing up for my constituents it's about time
stood up and said no more spending.
You know everybody seems to make this more complicated than it really is, whether
you have ten dollars or a hundred billion dollars you don't spend more
than you bring in.
We need to get rid of the tax code
and eliminate the IRS, we need to get the government out of our lives
so that we can be productive.
I think we need more conservative women in office,
we've run small businesses, we've raised families, we've handled the family budget,
and it really just comes down to common sense.
