This year, the South Carolina Freedom Caucus wasn't able to pass a bathroom ban or a big library censorship law using the proper legislative process, so they snuck that shit in on a budget proviso today like the underhanded little creeps they are.

We are saddened by the death of Eric Childs, a fierce advocate who spoke out on behalf of civil liberties for all South Carolinians. Our hearts go out to Eric's wife Jessicka, his entire family, and all the people whose lives he touched.

#Didyouknow that #Florida teachers were offered a $3000 stipend to get certified in a Christian Nationalist civics course - one that had "a heavy emphasis in the training on "dispelling the separation of church and state" ?

The conference committee adjourned for today without arriving at a compromise version of H. 3728, the classroom censorship bill. It's not over yet. Please keep calling and emailing these 6 lawmakers. https://t.co/gN9soKYbOj
@LGBTCenterSC He’s now being hyperbolic and trying to fear monger his colleagues.
Join us and contact your state senator to ask they vote NO on this dangerous bill that would harm the kids of South Carolina.

Today we’re at the statehouse in defense of trans kids.
Senator Cash, who typically uses the well as his pulpit to spread his religious beliefs, is up now railing against trans kids and their right to gender affirming care.
@ErinInTheMorn You can find @ErinInTheMorn's "WPATH" fact-check report here:
It's embarrassing that elected officials such as Sen. Cash are using documents created by extremists to legislate health care for children in our state.
Let that sink in. ⬇️

UPDATE: 48 Planet Fitness locations have now reported bomb threats since Libs of TikTok started targeting the chain of gyms for terminating the membership of a woman who photographed another customer using the locker room.
@ErinInTheMorn@GRACEforUSA Both Eric and his amazing wife Jessicka are now running for office against two of our most virulent anti-trans legislators here in SC. They truly live their values and I'm so glad to see this shared! 🥹
A new organization, GRACE (@GRACEforUSA), has launched for outreach to centrist and center-right voters who may feel uneasy about state control of the healthcare of transgender people.

Today, our legal team filed a response. South Carolina should not be able to hold elections using racially gerrymandered congressional districts in this year’s elections. https://t.co/KS7ry7roTN
In case you missed it: A federal court has ruled that South Carolina lawmakers drew a racially gerrymandered Congressional district map, but those lawmakers want permission to hold another election with that map anyway. https://t.co/OdtbME9hHr
“Don’t give up hope,” said Matthew Butler of the ACLU of South Carolina. “A better South Carolina is possible.”
