  3. Great news! Our state's unemployment rate dropped to 3.3% in the month of April. Thanks to our business-friendly environment, we have had over $1.4 billion in capital investment and created over 3,700 jobs so far this year. South Carolina is blasting off!

  4. The Election Integrity Bill makes it easier to vote and harder to cheat. It enacts measures such as: - Prohibiting drop boxes - Requires post election audits - Prohibits county election commissions from accepting dark money

  5. It’s common sense, boys should play boys sports and girls should play girls sports.

  6. The Save Women’s Sports Act is now the law of the land in South Carolina. We have to do everything we can to protect the young men and women in our state who choose to pursue athletic competition, and that’s why I proudly signed this bill into law yesterday.

  7. Thrilled to join Buc-ees this morning as they officially cut the ribbon on their location in Florence. We are very proud to have an industry giant like Buc-ees putting down roots in our state. I can’t wait to see all that they achieve here.

  8. I have signed a bill into law that grants paid parental leave to our state employees. We’ve worked for years to see this bill come to fruition and it will greatly help us to recruit and retain talented employees, improve morale, and show our appreciation to these public servants.

  9. This is just one more way we can thank our veterans for their sacrifice and it adds to the long list of things that makes South Carolina the most military-friendly state in the country.

  10. We’re doing everything we can to incentivize our nation’s heroic veterans to live, work, and raise their families here in S.C. For years, we have fought to eliminate all state income taxes on their retirement pay. On Friday, I signed a bill into law that will make that a reality.

  11. I have signed the election reform bill into law marking a major victory for those who believe in free and fair elections. It makes it easier to vote and harder to cheat – making our elections more secure and protecting us from the election day disasters we saw nationwide in 2020.

  12. Instead of providing Americans with solutions like increasing domestic oil production and exploration, we get gas tax “gimmicks,” overtures to OPEC and silly releases from the strategic reserve. We need to make America energy independent again before it’s too late.

  13. South Carolinians are paying twice as much at the pump under President Biden and the Democrats. Their policies have created the worst inflation in generations.

  17. Joined the GE team at their facility in Camden this morning to celebrate their grand re-opening. GE Appliances has long been a staple in the Kershaw County community and today’s event further solidifies their commitment to our state.

  19. Peggy and I enjoyed hosting members of the South Carolina Chamber of Commerce at the Governor’s Mansion this afternoon. In South Carolina, our business is business and we are creating an environment where these companies can grow and prosper.
