Here’s a clip from my Senate floor speech explaining how an outsourcing of the legislature’s constitutional obligation to draw congressional districts to a DC consultant retained by the White House is an affront to state sovereignty and an erosion of separation of powers.

Here’s a clip from my Senate floor speech describing the redistricting map drawn by a DC consultant that was “explained” by him in a seven-minute, forty-second Zoom appearance in which he took no questions.

🏛️🗺️ As the battle over redistricting in South Carolina heads to the State Senate, here's a column from @SenTomDavisSC explaining why he doesn't support the @RealDonaldTrump-backed bill that cleared the S.C. House early this morning... https://t.co/16IpmSizvx

With others this morning at South Carolina State House to ceremonially break ground on a monument honoring Robert Smalls, an enslaved man who became a Civil War hero, legislator and congressman, marking what is a historic step in recognizing the full story of South Carolina.

My mother Yvonne Davis and her mother Yvonne Dauphers, four days after I was born. She had graduated earlier that day from Douglass College (hence the gown). My father made the cradle I’m lying in. Happy Mother’s Day to all mothers.

I’m honored to be recognized as a Nuclear State Champion by @Nuclear_Matters. South Carolina is at the forefront of nuclear energy, and I’m proud to help lead the effort.

.@postandcourier: Gov. @HenryMcMaster has been a conservation-minded leader; now the pressing question is whether the state can maintain the momentum he created and keep preserving our most scenic, fragile and important lands in the years to come. https://t.co/kR2QAMx2ls

With my fellow South Carolina Institute of Medicine and Public Health board members earlier today on the north steps of the State House. Moments earlier the South Carolina Senate presented IMPH with a resolution recognizing its efforts to improve access to quality healthcare.

.@islandpacket: The new U.S. 278 bridge project has prompted development of the William Hilton Parkway Gateway Corridor Master Plan to improve the stretch of road between where the new bridge will touch down and where it intersects with Spanish Wells Road. https://t.co/nqj8K5R1Fe

Women are sentient human beings with rights—not "receptacles." S. 1095 is a cruel overreach that ignores the fundamental rights of women in our state.

[Tom Davis @SenTomDavisSC]

We aren't just talking about laws; we're talking about our daughters, our neighbors, and our healthcare workers.

Turning medical decisions into RICO violations and threatening 20-year prison sentences isn't the South Carolina I know.

[Tom Davis @SenTomDavisSC]

Surveillance of women who suffer miscarriages? This isn’t a hypothetical—it’s an amendment currently on the desk in Columbia, and I’m embarrassed by the extreme direction this legislation is taking.

.@postandcourier: “The South Carolina Compassionate Care Act provides the medical-cannabis model we need: physician authorization on the front end and pharmacist dispensing on the back end to protect patients and ensure product safety,” said Sen. Tom Davis.https://t.co/NcIkekO7rk

Just finished a panel discussion in Charleston at @MedUnivSC with two South Carolina Senate colleagues, @DDannyverdin and @RonnieSabbSC.

.@FoxNews: @realDonaldTrump’s Acting AG signs order reclassifying marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III “to deliver on President Trump’s promise to expand Americans’ access to medical treatment options.” Finally, medical science prevails over politics.https://t.co/MikJJsd5xR

You can’t solve traffic by building roads after the fact. Conserve land. Require infrastructure before growth. Accelerate SCDOT improvements. Do all three — or none of it works. @WHHITV

.@postandcourier opines on my data center bill: “Sen. Tom Davis has the most promising plan, one designed to prevent the electricity subsidies, limit water usage and put some particularly sensitive environmental territory off limits.”

We need to act. https://t.co/J7FqpS6YMM

.@wachfox: S. 1095 would ban abortion at conception, eliminate exceptions for rape, incest, and fetal anomaly, put women in prison for up to two years and subject doctors and staff to felony charges. Sen. Tom Davis was the only Republican on the committee to vote against S. 1095.

[WACH FOX @wachfox]

Republican Sen. Tom Davis spoke out against the bill and was the only Republican to vote against advancing it.
