AS GOVERNOR, WE WILL RESTORE SOUTH CAROLINA’S FOUNDING PRINCIPLES AND EMPOWER ITS PEOPLE
If elected Governor, I, Josh Kimbrell, will champion policies that promote God, family, and faith, ensuring South Carolina remains a beacon of traditional values. We will uphold our constitutional republic, as envisioned by the Founding Fathers, by respecting the rule of law and rejecting pure democracy. My administration will eliminate personal income tax, replacing it with a reformed sales tax system, while offering tax breaks for small businesses. We will implement universal school choice, including tax credits and religious charter schools, to provide every child a quality education. A new SC Office of Parental Rights will protect families from government overreach in education, religious instruction, and healthcare. Through a DOGE panel, we will use AI to sunset burdensome regulations within 100 days, requiring reauthorization every five years to reduce unjust rules and spending. Finally, we will prioritize veterans’ healthcare and housing, enhancing services and access, with a focus on mental health, to honor those who served. Together, we will build a stronger, freer South Carolina rooted in faith, family, and opportunity.
