Brian Carnes a true conservative for the people

With a proven record of being a true conservative Brian Carnes is the right person to send to Columbia and replace another staunch conservative Mick Mulvaney.

Brian truly understands the needs of District 16. Being a small business owner, his dedication, hard work and a his desire to serve.

Brian will fight to get rid of big government, wasteful spending and the bureaucratic red tape that has overrun our state. If we truly want change then we need a real reformer.

We ask that you consider Brian Carnes as your next State Senator.




Here are three issues that Brian wants to tackle as your next Senator:


Job Creation: Brian believes that job creation is one of the leading issues for the people in District 16. As a small business owner, Brian knows that we need to find the right solutions to provide people with meaningful employment. People in our District are hurting and many of them are struggling to get by. Short term solutions are just that, short term. We need to find long term solutions that enhance and expand our small business base, which drives the employment in our state. We need to find ways to keep our small businesses from failing in South Carolina and make them more competitive. We need to make it easier for them to expand by eliminating the governmental barriers that impede their growth. If we can get people back to work, then we can eventually turn our economy around.

Transparency: Transparency" is a catchphrase. Transparency needs to be about making our elected officials accountable for their votes. The public needs to know where they stand on issues and how they voted. Brian will fight for roll call voting, so that voting public knows how their representatives voted. We need to make our government more accountable and user friendly for constituents. We need to make on-line bills and campaign finance reporting easier to find so that everyone can access that information easily. Brian believes that we need to be able to track where every dollar in our state budgets goes in order to insure that we don't grow our bureaucracy at the expense of our programs.
 
A More Reliable & Smaller Government: This issue comes down to accountability. Brian believes that we need to reduce the size of State Government. We need to make sure that every dollar is spent wisely by eliminating wasteful and unnecessary spending, entitlements and by combining & streamlining departments. Brian believes that every level of government (State or Federal) needs to abide by the rules & laws that they enact. We owe it to the people we serve to make our State Government as lean, efficient and accountable as possible
