HALEY: I fundamentally believe that people want paychecks, not welfare checks. So we started asking people on public assistance what kind of work they could do and we matched them up with businesses. We've moved 20,000 South Carolinians from welfare to work.

Woman: There's dignity in working. It’s what I always wanted to do. Governor Haley’s program helped me get there. Nikki Haley makes a difference.
