SUMMARY: In this content, Mississippi Insight interviews Republican candidate for lieutenant governor, Chris McDaniel. McDaniel discusses his views on the state's economy, healthcare problems, and education. He emphasizes the need for job creation and economic growth through cutting taxes and reducing regulatory burdens on businesses. McDaniel advocates for eliminating the income tax and grocery tax, arguing that these taxes are regressive and unfair, particularly for the poorest in Mississippi. He also addresses the issue of Medicaid, highlighting the need for reform before considering expansion. McDaniel rejects the idea that Mississippi is leaving money on the table by not expanding Medicaid, arguing that it is taxpayers' money and the program needs to be reformed first.

The Republican state senator for Forrest and Jones Counties talks with 12 News' Richard Lake about the economy and taxes, healthcare and education as he seeks the GOP nomination for lieutenant governor. Hosted by Byron Brown and produced by Tom Wright.
