Montgomery, AL – Greenville businessman Tim James is traveling the state to discuss what he calls the ``Common Sense Plan'' that he would use if elected governor next year.
The Republican candidate said his plan includes vetoing any new taxes and returning to property tax reappraisals every four years.
James is also calling for the use of photo IDs to vote, the creation of new economic incentives to help Alabama businesses grow, the expansion of broadband technology statewide, and the capping of tuition increases for public colleges at the rate of inflation.
James discussed his plan Tuesday with a group of supporters in Montgomery. They included Montgomery timber executive Guice Slawson, who served in Gov. Bob Riley's Cabinet early in his first term. Slawson said he likes James because he's not a professional politician.
