2020 Silver Elephant Dinner
SOUTH CAROLINA REPUBLICAN PARTY THE ROAD TO THE WHITE HOUSE 53rd ANNUAL SILVER ELEPHANT PRE-RECEPTION SOUTH CAROLINA REPUBLICAN PARTY THE ROAD TO THE WHITE HOUSE 53rd ANNUAL SILVER ELEPHANT GUEST SOUTH CAROLINA REPUBLICAN PARTY THE ROAD TO THE WHITE HOUSE 53rd ANNUAL SILVER ELEPHANT STAFF SOUTH CAROLINA REPUBLICAN PARTY THE ROAD TO THE WHITE HOUSE 53rd ANNUAL SILVER ELEPHANT PRESS SOUTH CAROLINA REPUBLICAN PARTY THE ROAD TO THE WHITE HOUSE 53RD ANNUAL SILVER ELEPHANT DINNER • 2020 FTS-SC-RepParty-2020-SilverElephantProgram.indd 1 9/8/20 9:50 AM never WELCOME CHAIRMAN DREW MCKISSICK Welcome to the 2020 Silver Elephant Gala! For 53 years, South Carolina Republicans have gathered together each year to forget... celebrate our party’s conservative principles, as well as the donors and activists who help promote those principles in our government. While our Party has enjoyed increasing success in the years since our Elephant Club was formed, we always have to remember that no victories are ever perma- nent. They are dependent on our continuing to be faithful to do the fundamen- tals: communicating a clear conservative message that is relevant to voters, identifying and organizing fellow Republicans, and raising the money to make it all possible. As we gather this evening on the anniversary of the tragic terrorists attacks on our homeland in 2001, we’re reminded about what’s at stake in our elections this year - the protection of our families, our homes, our property, our borders and our fundamental values. This year’s election offers us an incredible opportunity to continue to expand our Party. -

Peeler, Jr. DATE: May 4, 2020 SUBJECT: President’s Select Committee to Re-Open South Carolina ______________________________________________________________________________ As President of the Senate, I have appointed a Select Committee to Re-Open South Carolina. Senator Thomas Alexander will chair this Select Committee. Other members include Senators Gerald Malloy, Vincent Sheheen, Tom Davis, Kevin Johnson, Katrina Shealy and Ross Turner. As the Select Committee you are charged with accepting any recommendations made by Governor Henry McMaster’s AccelerateSC task force. Recommendations requiring legislative action will be reviewed by you. Legislation will be introduced by you. I ask that the Select Committee to Re-Open South Carolina begin work immediately. There will be many ideas to be considered including best practices for business operations, safe harbors for potential COVID-19 liability, continued workforce development, and addressing the increase in unemployment. If our businesses need tools to return to work, then we need to provide them. If our citizens need our help, then we need to help them. South Carolinians have been in a difficult situation for too long. By transforming the efforts of AccelerateSC into legislative action, the Senate, through Re-Open South Carolina, can do its part to provide that our citizens and our economy are safe and secure. -

In this publication we have selected several key votes from the 121st General Assembly (January 2015–June 2016), and used those roll calls to score each legislator on family-related issues. By reading the descriptions of the issues and looking at your legislator’s votes, you can determine if your legislator has been a leader for the family, or if he or she has made the work of defending family values more diffi cult. Palmetto Family Alliance is a 501c(4) non-profi t organization. We are the legislative action arm of Palmetto Family. We exist to promote, protect, and preserve family values, and to make South Carolina a great place to live and raise a family. As part of that mission, we monitor and educate the state legislature on issues relevant to family values. These issues range from state policy on education and taxes, to social issues like life and marriage. As you will see on the pages that follow, the 121st session was very successful for us. Several of the bills we liked were passed and every bill we rated detrimental to the family was defeated. If you would like more information on pro-family legislative action, please visit our Action Center at www.PalmettoAlliance.org or e-mail us at [email protected] and ask to be added to our e-mail list. -
The South Carolina Republican Party State Convention
A RESOLUTION OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA REPUBLICAN PARTY STATE CONVENTION OPPOSING THE 20% BORDER ADJUSTMENT TAX INCREASE WHEREAS, South Carolina working families are already taxed too much; and WHEREAS, the federal Border Adjustment Tax would adversely affect the State of South Carolina making it the 6th hardest hit state by this tax increase; and WHEREAS, the Border Adjustment Tax would spell uncertainty for our state’s 7,400 auto manufacturing employees; and WHEREAS, the Border Adjustment Tax would levy a 20% tax on all American imports that would then be passed on to American consumers and force many South Carolina retailers out of business; and WHEREAS, the Border Adjustment Tax hurts the very consumers that tax reform is supposed to help; and WHEREAS, every U.S. state would be harmed by a blanket tax on imported goods, especially those in which imports already play a substantial role in the economy; and WHEREAS, even with partial dollar appreciation, a 20 percent import tax could mean billions in new taxes for businesses; and WHEREAS, these cost increases would fall directly on importers – and subsequently consumers – with the auto and retail industries among the hardest hit; and WHEREAS, in some states the tax bill on imports under the Border Adjustment Tax could be double, triple, or even quadruple the size of all federal business taxes the state currently pays; and WHEREAS, the South Carolina Republican Party opposes bigger government and higher taxes; therefore be it RESOLVED, that the South Carolina Republican Party State Executive Committee adamantly opposes the Border Adjustment Tax that would raise taxes on American imports by as much as 20% and could destroy thousands of jobs in South Carolina and put many of our family retailers out of business, and therefore, we also urge our federal congressional delegation to oppose the Border Adjustment Tax. -
