FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
*South Carolina’s First District Candidates Join Coalition to Reduce
Spending*
*15 of 19 Candidates Pledge to Reject the Debt*
Alexandria, VA (March 12, 2013) — With the special election in South
Carolina’s 1st Congressional district just one week away, the Coalition to
Reduce
Spending<http://reducespending.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e0f55a01e0d93679f114c978e&id=174bb77b53&e=c73226661c>,
the only national organization advocating exclusively for limiting federal
spending, has announced that 15 of the field of 19 candidates from multiple
parties have pledged to Reject the
Debt<http://reducespending.us4.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=e0f55a01e0d93679f114c978e&id=9398338c4b&e=c73226661c>
.
Larry Grooms, Chip Limehouse, Ray Nash, Keith Blandford, Shawn Pinkston,
Mark Sanford, Elizabeth Moffly, Andy Patrick, Ric Bryant, Jeff King, Peter
McCoy, Teddy Turner, Jonathan Hoffman, John Kuhn, and Ben Frasier have all
signed this on-the-record promise. Tim Larkin, Curtis Bostic, Eugene Platt,
and Elizabeth Colbert-Busch have yet to sign.
In response to the news, Coalition President Jonathan Bydlak released the
following comment:
*In a time when the national debt and spending issues are at the forefront
of the national debate and certainly that of South Carolina’s 1st District,
nearly every candidate has made spending a key plank and promised to take
steps to reduce out-of-control federal debt.
But election promises are notorious for being as temporary as the elections
that produce them. This race offers a chance for voters to buck that trend.
Reject the Debt is a reasonable pledge for unreasonable times — a litmus
test for whether a politician will stand up to the profligate status quo.
The positive response from the vast majority of candidates shows that a
culture of fiscal sanity permeates deep into the state’s citizenry.*
The Reject the Debt pledge asks candidates to go on record that they will
consider all spending open for reduction, vote only for budgets that
present a path to balance, and vote against any appropriations bills that
increase total spending or fund new programs without offsetting cuts in
others.
