I support anything that makes it easier to vote and that promotes engagement and turnout. If your name has changed, if you've moved, if you're going to be busy on Election Day and need to vote early or by mail you have the right to vote, if not the responsibility, and we should treat it that way. There is a need to make sure that our voting is secure, but I believe that responsibility should be the SC Election Commission and should be supported where they deem it necessary.
Not to sound like a broken record, but I want to make health care easier to access and more affordable. We have the ability, and frankly the funding, as a society to make sure every South Carolinian has access to basic care. I'll defer to the experts in treatment, in care, and in the financial side to figure out how we get there. There are people in this state who have spent careers thinking about this, and I want to listen to them. My goal is for South Carolina to become a beacon for health care in the United States, right now we're closer to a flashing red warning light, and we can do better than that.
This is a real concern for a lot of South Carolinians, and honestly, I share it. I wouldn't want to live near a data center, and I don't want to see my monthly bills go up to subsidize one. That said, every data center proposal is different. The site matters. The water situation matters. What the company is willing to commit to matters. I want to learn from the experts across the fields these facilities affect, energy, water, land use, local economic development, and build legislation grounded in what they're telling us.
My bottom line is this: the people and communities affected by these facilities should benefit from them just as much as the companies building them. If a data center is going to use our resources, we should use them back.
