Please, everyone listen for just a minute. This is important. The Governor is NOT issuing a statewide shelter in place quarantine on Monday. The National Guard is not being called out. This is just another social media rumor designed to create more hysteria. As you were.

I really feel like Rs and Ds are so close, conceptually, on the details of police reform; but were so distant politically. Theres so much desire to be seen and heard rather than to create meaningful change. Its truly sad to see.
The Governor signed S259 (The Flood Resilience Bill) into law yesterday. I was honored to be a part of the team getting this important legislation to the finish line. This will be a big deal of S.C. And my kids just had to get a selfie with the Gov. https://t.co/DOesBnKW3A
Thank you for trusting me to do this job. Other than being a husband and father, serving in the Senate has been the honor of my life. Im humbled that youve sent me back for another term.

Like the message or hate it...left or right...this is a major problem for S.C. and our Republic. We need transparency.
Serious post for moms during this extended vacation: Dads try. And its just as frustrating for us when our kids run past us to ask mom for help; or love. We understand mom provides so much more for our young ones than we can offer right now. But we want to help. And were here.
