- By The John Birch Society

Unapproved Nuke Model Part of SC 'Clean Electricity' Plan
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
S.C. officials want to spend millions of state tax dollars on a new “clean electricity” strategy that includes a type of nuclear technology currently not in use by any U.S. utility, an investigation by The Nerve has found.
In recently passing its version of the nearly $41 billion total state budget for fiscal 2024-25, which starts July 1, the Republican-controlled S.C. House designated $50 million out of a state “rainy-day” fund for the "South Carolina Nexus for Advanced Resilient Energy,” or “SC Nexus” for short.
In an application submitted last year – which The Nerve recently reviewed – for federal designation as an inaugural “Tech Hub,” the S.C. Department of Commerce said the state’s expanding manufacturing sector, along with the scheduled closure of two of three regional coal plants by 2030, “provides opportunity to innovate, scale, and export new electricity technology and intellectual property.”

Support the South Carolina Medical Freedom Act (S.975)
- By The John Birch Society
South Carolina legislators are seeking to pass the Medical Freedom Act (S.975), a pro-freedom bill that would protect South Carolinians from forced vaccination, roll back “public health emergency” laws, and ensure access to ivermectin and other life-saving medications.

Trans Activist Plaintiffs Sanctioned by Federal Judge for Attempt to Subpoena Eagle Forum of Alabama
- By Kris Ullman - President of Eagle Forum
Individual Plaintiffs Forced to Withdraw Subpoena Meant to Silence Constitutionally Protected Advocacy to Protect Vulnerable Children
(MONTGOMERY, AL) – A federal judge has sanctioned the trans activist plaintiffs for their attempt to subpoena Eagle Forum of Alabama (EFA) in the case challenging the Alabama Vulnerable Child Compassion and Protection Act (VCAP). After hearing the arguments by the attorney representing EFA, the judge offered plaintiffs the opportunity to withdraw their unsupportable subpoena, which they quickly did. After apologizing to the court and Eagle Forum, the judge ordered the parties to confer to determine appropriate fees and the plaintiffs agreed to pay attorney fees in the amount of $25,000.

South Carolina S965 vs. S975
- By Greenville Patriot Caucus
The Senate Medical Affairs Committee is set to hear two bills regarding Medical Freedom this month. S965 is a bad bill and is being fast tracked over the better bill, S975. S965 is scheduled to be heard in Committee this Thursday March 7th, so please act to this CTA before Thursday morning.
S965 is a bad bill for the following reasons:
- Allows private employers to fire unvaccinated employees and removes a lawyer’s chances of litigating on behalf of a person wrongfully discharged because of their vaccination status.
- Provides meager unemployment benefits through federal COVID-19 relief tax dollars.
- Establishes and funds weekly discriminatory COVID-19 testing based on vaccination status.
- Does nothing to reduce "public health emergency" powers.

Many County Magistrates Still on Bench Past their Terms
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
Dozens of county magistrates statewide continue to serve months or even years after their terms have expired – giving S.C. senators who control their nominations the power to fire them at any time.
As of last week, 71, or a nearly a quarter, of the 300 magistrates statewide identified on the S.C. Judicial Department’s website remained in “holdover status,” The Nerve found in a review of the most recently available holdover lists from the department and Governor’s Office, as well as Senate journals, which record official actions of senators while the 46-member chamber is in session.

CALL TO ACTION: Get DEI Out of SC!
- By SC Freedom Caucus
Big news—tomorrow, after the SC House of Representatives adjourns, a House Education and Public Works Subcommittee will hold a hearing on SCFC member Josiah Magnuson’s DEI bill.
The bill’s number is H.4290. If passed, it will drastically reduce the negative and divisive impact of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in our colleges and universities.
DEI (also known as Discrimination, Exclusion, and Indoctrination) is the practice of Marxist critical theory. It is an anti-American ideology that rejects individual responsibility, accomplishment, and merit in favor of socialism and class warfare based on race, gender, sexual orientation, and religion. It also promotes revisionist history and Left-wing activism intent on upending alleged “systemic oppression.”
Taxpayer money should never be used to undermine our values, silence speech, and indoctrinate our youth.

RINOs Work with Dems to Save Face
We've seen some wild things in Columbia, but maybe none as wild as this.
To recap, the SC House passed a decent Constitutional Carry Bill and sent it to the SC Senate last year. The Senate gutted the bill, creating constitutionally questionable classes of gun owners, and exempting legislators from gun laws that our constituents would have to follow.
The SC Freedom Caucus, from the moment the Senate passed their watered-down version, called for the House to amend the bill back to its original form.

OPPOSE South Carolina Ranked-choice Voting Bill H.4022
- By The John Birch Society
Members of the South Carolina General Assembly are seeking to pass legislation that would implement ranked-choice voting (RCV) in the state. The General Assembly must reject RCV and the detrimental effects it would have on election integrity.
House Bill 4022 (H.4022) is sponsored by one Democrat and one Republican — a “bipartisan” bill that pushes South Carolina and its voting standards away from sound, Americanist principles.
If enacted, this bill would allow municipalities to implement RCV — labeled “instant runoff voting” in the bill — in their own elections. This would be a major step, and a slippery slope, toward RCV in all South Carolina elections.

Ex-lawmakers, Others with Legislative Ties Often Shoo-Ins for S.C. Judicial Seats
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
Judicial elections that were expected to occur today in the S.C. Legislature have been postponed indefinitely, the apparent outcome of a threatened filibuster last year by a state senator pushing for judicial reform.
But whenever the next elections are held, lawmakers could put a former longtime legislator on the bench – in keeping with their longstanding practice of favoring ex-lawmakers and others with legislative ties for court seats.
Ex-House member and attorney James Smith of Columbia, who was the unsuccessful Democratic nominee in the 2018 governor’s election, is the sole candidate for a 5th Circuit Court seat after the only other nominated candidate dropped out – a common move before elections by nominees after tallying expected legislative votes.

Records: SC Offered Scout Motors Far Sweeter Deal Compared to MS
- By Rick Brundrett - The Nerve
The $1 billion taxpayer-funded gift that S.C. lawmakers last year approved for the Scout Motors electric vehicle plant was seven times more than what officials in Mississippi, which lost out to South Carolina, were willing to offer in state grant funding through special legislation, records obtained by The Nerve show.
And, in addition to the vehicle assembly plant, Scout Motors, which German-based Volkswagen created in 2022, sought Mississippi incentives for a battery cell production “giga” factory, according to the company’s incentives wish list, known as a “request for proposal” (RFP), which The Nerve obtained earlier this month from the Mississippi Development Authority (MDA) under that state’s open-records law.
