Jason M. Payne
SC House District 83
Community First, Values Always
Issues
Seven priorities. Real solutions. Built around the people who live here.
Affordable housing is a basic human necessity, and government has a responsibility to help ensure citizens have access to safe, attainable housing they can build a life around.
Pervasive education is the key to societal civility, safety, and prosperity. Quality education must be accessible to all — because better-educated communities are safer, stronger, and more prosperous.
Our public safety officers are underpaid and overworked, asked to carry immense responsibility. Jason supports true community policing — accountability when necessary, plus the resources, training, and respect departments need.
Rising healthcare costs and restrictions on women's access to care have harmed families and degraded their access to basic human needs. Jason supports affordable care and women's holistic autonomy.
Local businesses are the lifeblood of our communities. Jason will listen to business owners about economic, security, and talent challenges — and work toward real, practical solutions.
Partisan gerrymandering undermines fair elections. Voters deserve accessible representatives who understand local issues — not oddly shaped districts designed to consolidate power.
An individual's right to possess firearms is constitutionally protected unless they have forfeited that right under the rule of law. As a gun owner and former firearm instructor, Jason supports responsible gun ownership and compliance with existing laws.
