Linda Carsten for GA House District 102

"Balancing a budget, meeting payroll, making ends meet is not new to me. I know the day to day struggles of surviving in this economy."

Linda Carsten

As your Representative I will work for you to :

Create Jobs

Lack of jobs and double-digit unemployment affects us all.
Finding real tax incentives for businesses, while encouraging others to locate to our state will be a priority.
Incentives come in many forms. A “Georgia Fair Tax” plan will create jobs and eliminate income tax for individuals and businesses.
Support for Georgians hiring from the unemployment roll is crucial.
Focusing on growth and revitalization, while helping existing businesses survive, is needed to stimulate our state economy.

Cut Taxes and Support the "Fair Tax"

As a genuine conservative, I will oppose tax increases and cut wasteful spending.
Lead the way to implement an audit of every state agency and eliminate waste.
Abolish the state income tax, and replace it with a Georgia “Fair Tax”.
Initiate overhauling an out-dated property tax assessment system, giving homeowners a real tax break.

Immigration

There will be no stronger advocate for you when it comes to dealing with illegal immigration. We have an obligation to protect our state and ensure the safety of our citizens. I will oppose using any of our tax dollars to subsidize those here illegally. The system is broken and amnesty is not the answer.

Second Amendment

Trust

I see myself as the “Citizens Candidate”. I will work to engender your trust in government, especially at the local level and work to incorporate traditional conservative values back into our representative system.
My core value is personal integrity. I will lead and represent my constituents in an ethical, honorable and trustworthy manner.
