(Fox News) – Sarah Huckabee Sanders outlined her plans on Twitter Friday if she wins the race for Arkansas governor. The former White House press secretary under President Trump detailed a plan to grow the economy and champion school choice.
“I will take on the bureaucracy, reduce the cost and size of government, and make it accountable to you,” Sanders, 38, said, adding a promise to lower state income tax. “I will champion good schools and good teachers, but also offer more choices to parents of kids in failing schools,” she continued.
“Every child must have the opportunity of a quality education – and no child should ever be trapped in a life of poverty and despair.” “We will succeed, but only if we hold the line against the attacks on our freedom and push forward with fresh ideas under a new generation of leadership.
As governor, I will defend our freedom and lead with heart,” Sanders concluded. Sanders, the daughter of former longtime Gov. Mike Huckabee, announced her run on Monday. She is from Hope, Ark., the same town as former President Bill Clinton, who also served as governor in the 1980s.
“As governor, I will defend your right to be free of socialism and tyranny,” Sanders said in her nearly eight-minute launch video. “Our state needs a leader with the courage to do what’s right, not what’s politically correct or convenient.” READ MORE
