U.S. Rep. Gresham Barrett, the Westminster Republican running for governor, released his plan Monday to get South Carolina back to work.

The plan includes overhauling the state Department of Commerce and tax code, prioritizing improvements to state roads, bridges and ports, and using lottery money to retrain workers for the up to 40,000 jobs currently available.

Barrett unveiled the plan at stops in Greenville, North Charleston and West Columbia.

“With a comprehensive approach to economic development, we can take South Carolina somewhere she has never been before,” Barrett said.

The jobs tour continues today with stops in Aiken and Greenwood.
