Last year, my predecessor, Representative O’Neal, requested funding for a fire ladder for the Tega Cay Fire Department. The population of this district has exploded, and we have many tall buildings now that weren’t here before. It’s a pretty simple public safety request. IT WAS DENIED. Instead, the budget funded: – $9.4M for the Arts Commissionโgummy bear statues, homoerotic art, and non-core government functions – $900K for an SC Hall of Fame podcast – $9M+ for ETV – $400K for a DEI institute at Furman – $100M for a USC building they donโt need House leadership set a record for the largest budget in state history last yearโand they plan to break it again. But this year, we have a different plan: cut spending, significantly reduce taxes, and ๐ถ๐บ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ง๐ฟ๐๐บ๐ฝ ๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ๐ป๐ฑ๐ฎ ๐ถ๐ป ๐ฆ๐ผ๐๐๐ต ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ผ๐น๐ถ๐ป๐ฎโ๐ ๐ฏ๐๐ฑ๐ด๐ฒ๐. Iโm requesting that fire ladder again. Itโs time to fund the needs of South Caroliniansโnot the pet projects of politicians. Please stay engaged with me this week on FACEBOOK & X. I may be reaching out for your help with this fight to protect our community and your tax dollars! Yours in liberty, Jackie Representative District 66 |
