Testimony on House Congressional Plan 2, Amendments 1 and 2, Before the Senate

Of the two very different proposals under consideration by this Subcommittee, Amendment 2 shows that by doing so it is possible to keep both Charleston and Beaufort counties whole in CD 1 while meeting equal population requirements. The resulting district is highly competitive, 

The League of Women Voters of South Carolina asks the SC Senate to consider Amendment 2, the LWVSC proposal submitted to you, and other options that are less damaging to voter rights and to reasonable political dialogue than Amendment 1.

Please reject the temptation to prevent voters from choosing their representative in November.
