Thankful that Tom Rice received another term in Congress

I am involved in the construction business on the Grand Strand. I have seen the infrastructure needs of our area and the potential for growth of our roads and highways.

We need real solutions that invest in infrastructure. We need to fund the program that allows us to rebuild our roads and highways. We need to advance job-creating and convenient highways, such as I-73.

Tom Rice has proposed solutions to invest in infrastructure and ensure the Highway Trust Fund is funded to repair and improve our roads. He has been a key ally in the fight to construct I-73, playing a vital role in getting the permit application submitted for review.

He knows the infrastructure needs of our area and will continue his fight to fix them.

Benjy Hardee, Little River
