The U.S. Chamber is saddened by the passing of Senator Lindsey Graham. A trusted partner to the business community for more than three decades, his leadership and service leave a lasting legacy.

One. Step. Closer.
SC House delivers SCDOT reform.
The bill now returns to the SC Senate to agree on amendments. #PolicyPriority
This week, the SC House will take up legislation that would significantly modernize SCDOT and your voice can help shape the outcome.
Reach out to your representative and urge them to support S.831 and H.5071.

Big for Small Business owners in the Upstate and across South Carolina.
👏 Big day in the House for South Carolina small businesses! 👀 Read the letter below to see the overwhelming support from Chambers of Commerce across our state for H.5006 — the Small Business Tax Cut of 2026.
@SCHouseGOP is ready to deliver REAL tax relief for the small businesses who employ our neighbors, power our communities, and drive South Carolina’s economy forward. 🇺🇸

Small businesses are foundational to South Carolina’s economy and the heartbeat of our
communities. Their success directly drives local opportunity, investment, and growth.

Big thanks to the SC Senate for passing S. 244 — this is a huge step forward for lawsuit reform in South Carolina! 🙌
Over weeks of debate, the Senate made the bill even better — the way the process should work. This wasn’t about winners and losers — everyone came to the table and did what’s best for our state.
✅ Bipartisan support (35–7)
✅ Lower costs for businesses AND consumers
✅ Protects small businesses, customers, and entire industries
✅ Real reform — not just lip service
The Senate didn’t cave to inappropriate pressure — they listened, worked hard, and got it done. 💪
This is how South Carolina moves forward — together.
Now the bill moves to the House. Call your House member and ask them to vote YES on S. 244!

We knew the trial lawyers benefits from the status quo and not honest in their campaign against tort reform.
But the quiet part has been shouted from the mountaintop.
Follow along with today's debate. This bill will be scored for the 2025 Legislative Scorecard.
Tort reform, lawsuit reform, joint and several is vital for continued free market economic freedom in South Carolina.

Join us in Washington this summer for our UCC to DC Fly-in.
Details will be announced in a few weeks, with a BIG announcement.
Sponsorships are available. Email us - tinyurl.com/mt4s9z8v
The same trial lawyers you see on TV and billboards across the state have launched a well-funded campaign aimed at misleading the public, rather than engaging in a fair debate about S.244.
They are the sole beneficiary of maintaining the status quo. tinyurl.com/3n3nx7jc
Committee Hearing will begin at 12:45pm.
S.244 is back in committee today immediately following Senate adjournment. We are expecting amendments and maybe more fireworks... 🎆🎇
