fyi: The amendment Gov. Haley is referring to was an opportunity to pass registration by party. Also, S. 1 contains language that suppresses free speech. Click here, here, and here to see my thoughts on restricting your 1st amendment rights.
from Gov. Haley:
Yesterday was a sad day for the South Carolina Republican Party.
Eight of our Republican Senators voted to kill true ethics reform, and to keep in place our current, corrupt system of legislators investigating legislators. It’s shameful.
The good news is we still have time to change it.
But we need your help, and the help of all the good, real Republicans across South Carolina.
Please make sure every Republican knows the name of these eight Senators:
Senator Lee Bright (803) 212-6008leebright@scsenate.gov
Senator Kevin Bryant: (803) 212-6320 kevinbryant@scsenate.gov
Senator Paul Campbell (803) 212-6016 paulcampbell@scsenate.gov
Senator Ray Cleary (803) 212-6040raycleary@scsenate.gov
Senator Tom Corbin (803) 212-6100tomcorbin@scsenate.gov
Senator Hugh Leatherman (803) 212-6640 sfincomm@scsenate.gov
Senator Shane Martin (803) 212-6100shanemartin@scsenate.gov
Senator Luke Rankin (803) 212-6410lukerankin@scsenate.gov
And please make sure they reach out and ask them this: what have they been doing that makes them fight so hard to cover up their actions? What are they scared of? We all deserve to know.
There is no acceptable excuse. My very best, Nikki
