Extremely urgent! Act against midterm redistricting, abortion bill H.4760

LWVSC Action Alert

Submitted by South Carolina in May 2026.

Action Alerts

Last minute efforts before the close of the session have resulted in two extreme actions. Call your SC Senator and House Representative to oppose midterm redistricting, an action that would require cancelling June 9 primaries.

H. 4760 —which restricts the use of the medications commonly used in abortion and is also important in many other medical contexts—is being brought to the Senate floor without subcommittee hearings or debate. Call your SC Senator to vote NO on all extreme abortion bans including H.4760.
