PRIORITIES

RESPONSIBLE DEVELOPMENT

As the Lowcountry population grows, infrastructure struggles. Roadways are being expanded and improved reactively instead of proactively. Developers should not be allowed to build in our state without adequately contributing to infrastructure improvement projects. We must enact stricter regulations on developers and builders to ensure that our flooding and traffic issues are not worsened. Our state must enforce the rules and regulations that are designed to protect us from reckless overdevelopment.

AFFORDABLE HOUSING

Procuring housing should be attainable for all working people. Adrienne supports the development of affordable housing in accessible locations and would vote in favor of legislation that gives renters across the state the right to legal representation when facing eviction. Additionally, we must ensure that workforce housing is actually affordable for our teachers and first responders. A new "affordable" housing project in West Ashley has one-bedroom apartments for $1600 a month - that's not affordable for working people.

PUBLIC EDUCATION

Public funds belong in public schools. Period. Adrienne does not support school voucher programs or universal school choice, which both funnel tax dollars away from public education and toward private and religious schools. South Carolina's school voucher law was recently deemed to be unconstitutional for this exact reason. My opponent supported that unconstitutional legislation. Adrienne supports raising teacher and support staff pay, especially in Charleston and Dorchester Counties where the cost of living is high.

FLOODING

Many existing stormwater facilites are not properly maintained and consequently do not optimally mitigate flooding. Maintenance responsibilities for stormwater ponds and other facilities should be more strictly enforced to help decrease adverse flooding impacts. As your respresentative, Adrienne would advocate for increased funding to give county and municipal governments the equipment and manpower necessary to maintain stormwater facilities in decades-old subdivisions with defunct HOAs. HOAs are often tasked with facilitating the expensive maintenance of stormwater facilities in a subdivision; when those HOAs dissolve over time, homeowners are left with flooding problems and unaffordable maintenance obligations. Our local governments should be given the resources necessary to take this burden off of homeowners.

ABORTION AND LGBTQ+ RIGHTS

The government has no role restricting the personal medical decisions of South Carolina residents. Obtaining an abortion or gender-affirming care should be a decision made by the patient, their loved ones, and their healthcare providers - not legislators. Current abortion laws subjecting licensed abortion providers to civil and criminal actions are unjust and can hinder access to medically necessary emergency abortions. Adrienne will vote against any legislation that seeks to unjustly restrict the rights and bodily autonomy of South Carolinians. She will support measures to improve healthcare access and affordability for all.
