UPDATE: the SC House passed these rule changes with a vote of 63 ayes and 38 nays:
At 2pm today, January 29th, the House Rules Committee met and drafted new House rules without giving any opportunity for public testimony or livestreaming the meeting. This did not allow time for any member to read the full package and understand what they were voting on. These rule changes have been rushed to the floor and are currently up for a vote. For more info, check out former Representative Jonathon Hill’s analysis on page 25 of his 1/28/2025 Bad Bill Sheet.
Below is the compiled list of SC House Representatives that are the deciding votes on this rules package. If they hear from enough constituents, they may change their vote. This vote is in their hands, therefore it is in their constituents hands. Please contact the list below and urge them to not disenfranchise the voice of the people by changing the rules and shutting out dissent.

Well, I guess we reached our final destination. Last stop South Carolinistan!
These SOBs have been playing us for fools for many years. What difference does it make if the legislatures want to do this to themselves. They’ve already completely disenfranchised the people of SC, why bother to beg these clowns to do the right thing.
Any legislator with guts and principles should walk out, make a spectacle of this charade that they tell us is our government. look up the word Oligarchy online. You’ll find a picture of our state government.
Let’s see, we have no choice at the ballot box, no choice for who is on the ballot, No right of Initiative and Referendum, no recall of legislators. But, there’s hope, we still have the right to pay TAXES. Watch the video below.
