The House Republican Caucus released their 2010 legislative agenda which focuses heavily on job creation and economic development.
As a member of the Caucus, I am a strong supporter of pro-business legislation. According to the South Carolina Chamber of Commerce Legislative Scorecard, during 2009, I scored 88% in supporting issues that directly impact the business climate and competitiveness of our state.

The following are bills that I sponsored or co-sponsored this week -

H4331 - Supporting Law Enforcement - This bill would grant 180 days of paid leave to any officer who incurs bodily injurt during the performance of his police duties.

H4343 - Air Service Development Fund - This bill would establish a state fund that would allow regional airports to draw monies that would be matched by local funds in order to attract low cost carriers.

Week Ending 16 January 2010 -The second half of the two year Session began with the House considering the Resolution to censure Gov. Sanford. Though some expected a drawn out debate on the subject, the Resolution was overwhelmingly passed by the House after twenty minutes of debate. I voted in the majority for the Resolution.
