\nTo my great surprise, the Senate adopted a strike and insert amendment today to practically gut the S. 714 I blogged about a few days ago.\u00a0 Below is the amendment:
\nPERFECTING AMENDMENT by Sen. Vincent Sheheen (D-Kershaw)
\nSenator SHEHEEN proposed the following amendment (714R003.VAS):
\nAmend the committee amendment, as and if amended, on page [714-1] by striking lines -40 and inserting:
\n\/ “Section 2-17-16. A political action committee organized by or on behalf of the Governor, the Lieutenant Governor, any other statewide constitutional officer, a member of the General Assembly, a director or deputy director of a state department appointed by the Governor is prohibited. Any political action committee prohibited by this section in existence on the effective date of this act must distribute all unexpended contributions in the manner provided for in Section 8-13-1370(C).” \/
\nRenumber sections to conform.
\nAmend title to conform.<\/p>\n

I’m uncertain if I want to outlaw elected officials from forming PACs, but this isn’t nearly as dangerous as the original bill as drafted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
