Today, we honor Juneteenth, a celebration of freedom, resilience, and the ongoing fight for justice. Let us reflect, remember, and recommit to building a more equitable future for all. #Juneteenth #FreedomDay #BlackHistory

🚨 ICYMI 🚨 Today is the last day of early voting in South Carolina’s Democratic primary! Head to SCVotes.gov to locate your polling place and make a plan to go vote before 5 p.m. today. There’s still an opportunity to cast your ballot before Election Day arrives. #scdems #scpol #VoteBlue

South Carolinians deserve to have their voices heard! Early voting begins May 26 at 8:30 a.m. Be ready to vote before Republicans try to rewrite the rules and cancel congressional primaries. #scpol #scdems #VoteEarly

The redistricting bill has passed the House by a vote of 74-37. For over 27 hours across 3 days of debate, Democrats fought to stop Republicans from cheating voters by redrawing congressional districts. H. 5683 now goes to the Senate.

Republicans just silenced our voices by ramming through an unprecedented change to the rules in the middle of the game. We are now limited to 1 amendment per member with strict time limits in order to push through the new congressional map. We’ll keep fighting when the debate restarts at 10:00am.

SC House Democrats are standing with our farmers and making it clear why it matters for every South Carolinian. From our economy to our food supply, this is about protecting what keeps our state moving and making sure every South Carolinian is paying attention. #scdems #scpol #schouse

124 House Seats! Every State House seat is contested. Every statewide race has a Democratic candidate. The most offices contested by Democrats in modern history. We’re building the team to flip the future. #scdems #scpol #VoteBlue

Rep. Wendell Gilliard is encouraging folks to step up and run for office. Candidate filing closes March 30 at noon; we need strong Democrats in every race. Let’s stand together and win. #SCDems #SCPol

Democrats worked hard to pass a state budget that invests in the people of South Carolina. ✅ Raised pay for state employees + teachers ✅ Invested in infrastructure like roads, water + sewer ✅ Stopped radical attempts to defund public schools + state agencies

🚨 H. 4216 Republican Tax Raise 🚨 Republicans just voted to raise state income taxes for thousands of South Carolinians. Democrats support lowering taxes, but not at the expense of raising taxes on working families.

Defund Clemson? Republican extremists tried to cut funding for public colleges like Clemson and the College of Charleston today. Their amendments were rejected — but the fight to keep our schools open and lower tuition costs continues.

It’s House Budget Week and that means Democrats are fighting for investments that will make meaningful impacts in the lives of South Carolinians. Watch the House session live: www.scstatehouse.gov/video/chambe...

The House passes H. 4762, a bill to put the 10 Commandments in classrooms, by a vote of 84-31. Republicans shut down debate by invoking cloture and rejected our amendments to make the bill more inclusive for all South Carolinians.

On Reproductive Health Advocacy Day, women from across South Carolina came to the State House with a clear message: keep your bans off our bodies!

Today we celebrated HBCU Day at the State House! South Carolina is home to 8 Historically Black Colleges and Universities. On this day we proudly recognize these institutions and their important role in our state’s past, present, and future.

House Dem Leader Todd Rutherford breaks down House Bill 4760 and why it’s harmful for South Carolinians. This Republican-sponsored bill would make distributing abortion medication a felony. Republicans are advancing extreme policies that put people at risk. #Scpol www.facebook.com/share/r/17y6...

Debate on H. 4760, a ban on medication abortion, is beginning now. This bill will take away women’s freedom to make their own medical decisions and restrict access to medications used for a variety of health care purposes. Watch the debate here: www.scstatehouse.gov/video/chambe...

Tonight Rep. Jermaine Johnson delivers the Democratic response to the Governor’s State of the State. Watch it live on SCETV around 8:00pm and follow us for updates.

I am honored to be giving the Democratic response to Governor Henry McMaster state of the state address on Wednesday evening.

The fight to protect women — including survivors of rape and incest — from another extreme abortion ban now moves to the House floor. H. 4760, the medication abortion ban, was just passed by the Judiciary Committee. All Republicans voted for it. All Democrats voted against it.

It’s official! Rep. Keishan Scott is sworn-in and ready to work for the people of House District 50.

Huge thank-you to Senate Minority Leader Brad Hutto, Senators Ronnie Sabb, and Senator Deon Tedder for stopping SB 323 in its tracks. Because Democrats stood united and refused to back down, human rights won. #SCPol #SCDems

South Carolinians: SB 323 is the most extreme abortion ban in the country, threatening doctors, patients, families, even contraception and IVF. You can make your voice heard: send written testimony to [email protected] today. #StopSB323 #SCPol #ReproRights

When your @AGAlanWilson is careless with their words and the power of their voice, we must be safe and aware. As a SC Dem, we don't support lawlessness and we truly back our blue but can all of you say the same? #SCPol #New52

Congratulations to Keishan Scott on winning the 2025 special election for SC House District 50! At just 24, Rep. Scott is bringing fresh energy and bold leadership to Lee, Sumter, and Kershaw counties. Let's go, Keishan! #SCDems #SCPolitics

This weekend, Democrats from across the state came together for the SCDP Convention. We’re proud of Rep. Roger Kirby, who was elected 1st Vice Chair, Rep. Chandra Dillard & Rep. Spencer Wetmore who were Convention Co-Chairs, and Rep. Jermaine Johnson, who is exploring a run for governor!

We need Keishan Scott in the State House! Donate to his campaign today — and if you live in House District 50 in Lee, Sumter, and Kershaw counties, go vote! Early voting has started and Election Day is June 3.

Nearly 1 in 4 South Carolinians will see their taxes go UP under the GOP’s new tax plan. Eliminating key deductions hurts working families while the wealthiest benefit. Read more about H.4216 and why we’re sounding the alarm. #SCpol #FairTaxes

The House passed a bill to expand paid parental leave for state employee to 12 weeks. H. 3645 is important pro-family legislation — but a few extremists tried to kill the bill at the last minute. Watch Rep. Beth Bernstein fight back and deliver this win for families in South Carolina ⬇️

Trump’s tariffs are hurting South Carolina. Projects like BMW’s plant in the Upstate create thousands of jobs and invest billions of dollars — but one of Trump’s top advisors said this “doesn’t work for America.” Reps. Wendell Jones, Chandra Dillard & Hamilton Grant set the record straight ➡️

The House passed the anti-diversity, equity, and inclusion bill by a vote of 32 to 82.

Republicans just filed an amendment, completely rewriting their bill at the end of the diversity, equity, and inclusion debate. This means the new bill received no public testimony, no discussion in committee, and just 6 minutes of debate on the floor.

We’re fighting the ban on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Watch the debate as it happens in the State House: Instagram Live www.instagram.com/housedemssc/... Facebook Live www.facebook.com/share/v/1Tbe...

We’re excited to welcome Rep. Courtney Waters to the South Carolina House of Representatives! Stay tuned tomorrow as she joins us in the fight to protect diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Republicans just backed down, adjourning debate on H. 3927. Democrats will keep fighting to protect diversity, equity, and inclusion — today, next week, or any other time they want to push this divisive legislation on the people of South Carolina.

It’s a sad day in South Carolina as we debate H. 3927. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are American values. We oppose this bill because it seeks to sow division at a time when we need unity.

Tonight the House passed a state budget that funds the core functions of government — and thanks to our efforts, it does not include the anti-diversity, equity, and inclusion proviso!

We just passed H. 3497 to reform our liquor liability laws, bring down high insurance premiums, and save restaurants and small businesses in South Carolina. The House voted unanimously to send this bill to the Senate. Watch Rep. Roger Kirby explain what this means for our state:

Let’s talk about H. 3457, the extreme abortion ban that would take away exceptions for rape and incest.

This extreme abortion ban bill is wrong for South Carolina. Watch Rep. Spencer Wetmore and Rep. Justin Bamberg’s reaction to today’s House subcommittee meeting on H. 3457.

South Carolina has underfunded its public schools for decades. Now the Republican private school voucher scheme will take your tax dollars and give them to unaccountable institutions.
