Rep. Heather Bauer criticized the meager information provided in state-mandated reports.
“It’s very vague at best. I think we deserve to know what they’re using their money on,” the Columbia Democrat said. “How many people have they helped? What kind of resources and programing are they giving these people? And I’d like to see evidence of what outcomes they have for pregnant women in our state.”

I passed on the torch of Chair of the Greenwood County Democratic Party to Allen Moore last weekend.
It was my honor to serve for the past five years and there is no doubt in my mind that Allen will serve the GWCDP honorably and faithfully during his tenure.
Congrats, Allen. And thank you Greenwood Democrats for placing your trust in me!
Love watching Republican-on-Republican drama at the SC State House.

People in positions of power don’t like to be challenged."
