Jaime Harrison on Jobs

 

 


Current job protections the hard work of unions

Q: Support "right to work" laws, eliminating the ability of unions to mandate dues for workers they represent?

Jaime Harrison: No. Supported the right of workers to organize a union at a Boeing plant in South Carolina. Current job protections "are the results of the hard work [of] unions."

Lindsey Graham: Yes. Co-sponsored the National Right-To-Work Act in 2015.

Fight for jobs with living wage, expand childcare tax credit

Too many South Carolinians are in financial desperation and the middle class feels completely out of reach. America was built on jobs that pay a living wage to support a family and benefits that keep them healthy. As Senator, Jaime will fight to ensure that there's economic opportunity for folks who are willing to work hard. Jaime will also work to expand tax benefits such as expanded childcare tax credit to support middle-class families.

Harrison supports the Christian Coalition survey question on "Ban the Box"

The Christian Coalition inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'Eliminate Barriers to Housing and Employment for Those Who Have Successfully Completed their Sentence?'

[Ed.: "Ban the Box" refers to a checkbox that applicants must check when applying for jobs or housing, indicating whether they have an arrest record or a felony conviction.] Self-description by Christian Coalition of America: "These guides help give voters a clear understanding of where candidates stand on important pro-family issues" for all Senate and Presidential candidates.
