South Carolina’s infrastructure strains go beyond just surface transportation.  Our port system, on which the state’s economy depends, needs significant improvements.  We must not allow South Carolina to lose its competitive edge in attracting new businesses and new jobs due to these infrastructure deficiencies.  Unless we make significant changes in our course and direction, our infrastructure will continue to deteriorate and a real opportunity to restore South Carolina’s economy will be lost. We deserve better.

New Hampshire’s infrastructure strains go beyond just transportation.  Energy costs have skyrocketed as our electric grid can barely keep up with demand.  This issue, along with our roads, has caused New Hampshire to lose its competitive edge when attracting new businesses and new jobs.  Unless we make significant changes in our course and direction, our infrastructure will continue to deteriorate and a real opportunity to restore New Hampshire’s economy will be lost. We deserve better.
