The Jackson Clarion-Ledger: on Budget & Economy


Cindy Hyde-Smith: Fiscal conservative who cut spending and didn't borrow

Cindy led the fight to protect private property rights against eminent domain abuses and was a strong supporter of tort reform which ended lawsuit abuse in Mississippi, paving the way for more jobs and new businesses locating in Mississippi. She also supported fiscally conservative budget initiatives. When the recession hit America, Mississippi's budget was deeply impacted. Cindy helped craft a balanced budget by cutting spending, not borrowing more money.
