Grateful to the individuals with disabilities and @ACLU_SC for challenging voting restrictions that harm our community. Lawmakers don’t understand the barriers we face—assistance isn’t fraud, it’s access. Thanks to @MaryGreenNews for covering this story. msn.com/en-us/news/politics/…

After a mob broke into the Charleston Post Office to loot & burn northern newspapers in 1835, vigilance committees formed across the South to cleanse it of seditious and unwelcome materials. Now South Carolina’s state board of education is doing it for us. thestate.com/news/local/educ…

The US Supreme Court has declined to stop #BradSigmon’s execution by firing squad. If it goes ahead it will be the first in SC AND only the 4th time in US since 1976.
The last hope is clemency from @henrymcmaster but he has never issued a clemency.
