I cannot in good conscience support this deal. Simply stated, it locks us into more debt, bigger government and most devastating of all, a weakened defense infrastructure at a time when we face growing threats.Jul 26 2011

Unfortunately, I cannot in good conscience support the Boehner proposal in its current construct. The Boehner proposal, no matter how well-intentioned, will be a straight-jacket on real spending reform. It locks in spending levels well beyond what our nation can afford.

“South Carolina baseball has achieved legendary status by winning back-to-back NCAA Baseball National Championship titles. Ray Tanner and his gutsy team represent the very best in college athletics and have brought great pride to our entire state.”

“There is zero chance we will ever balance our nation’s budget under the current construct. I’m convinced the only way Congress and the President will annually balance the federal budget is if it’s constitutionally required. Without a Balanced Budget Amendment both parties will only talk about balancing the budget, never actually get it done.”Jun 21 2011

It’s clear what this union complaint is about -- it’s an effort to intimidate people like me who are speaking out against them. I will not be intimidated. And it’s not going to stop me from fighting for the people of South Carolina.
