.@SCFreedomCaucus arguments opposing #Scout incentives pending w/ @SCHouse @SCHouseGOP @SCHouseDems @scsenategop @SCSenateDems @SCSenate @henrymcmaster @SCcommerce are just as specious as their arguments opposing #HateCrimes. Kudos to Rep. Caskey’s for exposing their toxic dreck.

Updated story after the House Speaker blasted House "theatrics" during the abortion debate Wednesday. Another thing. Despite Hill telling me he's still a House GOP Caucus member, Majority Leader Simrill says no, he is not. thestate.com/news/politics-g…

Last week, this news outlet provided extensive coverage of the South Carolina General Assembly’s disastrously failed attempt to pass two emergency measures amid the coronavirus pandemic. Lawmakers came to Columbia, S.C. fitsnews.com/2020/04/16/sout…

Rep. Magnuson is trying to amend the bill. @GarySimrill objects, noting any amendment will prevent the bill from reaching @henrymcmaster’s desk today. And when the session will resume is unknown. The amendment is rejected 106-6.
There are 107 House members here today to pass a bill giving DHEC $45M to fight coronavirus, meaning 17 are absent. That’s better attendance than I expected. They’ve agreed to let members vote from the balcony for those practicing “social distancing”
