Dear

and

Washington
and
South
Carolina
with
you.
If

Fairness
in
Healthcare
If
Obamacare
is
too
harmful
to
apply
to
the
President’s
political
friends,
it
is
too
harmful
for
all
Americans.
This
law
of
the
land
should
apply
to
everyone—or
preferably
to
no
one—equally,
and
I
was
disappointed
to
see
that
President
Obama
has
chosen
to
make
special
exceptions
for
unions.
I
joined
twenty-four
colleagues
in
condemning
this
inappropriate
action
in
a
letter
to
the
administration.

Taxpayer
Right
to
Know
Act
You
have
the
right
to
know
how
federal
agencies
are
using
your
money.
For
too
long,
Congress
has
directed
money
from
the
pockets
of
hardworking
Americans
into
federal
agencies,
where
its
efficiency
and
use
are
nearly
impossible
to
track.
We
cannot
reasonably
talk
about
cutting
spending
and
reducing
our
debt
without
addressing
the
$200
billion
spent
in
waste
and
duplication
in
our
government
each
year.
I
joined
Senator
Coburn
this
week
in
introducing
a
bill
that
would
take
a
commonsense
step
in
requiring
federal
agencies
to
document
their
programs,
activities,
and
administrative
costs.

Supporting
Choice
for
Kids
I
am
a
strong
believer
of
the
value
of
school
choice
in
creating
opportunity
for
our
kids.
I
recently
introduced
the CHOICE
Act
to
expand
options
for
parents
to
choose
in
their
kids’
education,
and
spoke
about
it
at
length
at CPAC.
This
editorial
ran
yesterday
in
the
Post
and
Courier
and
talks
further
about
the
possibilities
that
school
choice
can
open
up
for
kids.
I
will
continue
to
work
on
my
agenda
of
opportunity
for
all
Americans,
and
I
appreciate
the
privilege
of
serving
as
your
voice
in
the
United
States
Senate.
Your
input
is
very
valuable
to
me—please
do
not
hesitate
to
reach
out
with
questions,
suggestions,
or
if
we
can
ever
be
of
service
to
you.
Sincerely,
Tim
