S.C. Dem State Rep on Republican Redistricting Efforts: ‘It’s Starting to Feel More Like 1966 than 2026’

‘We are fighting voter disenfranchisement’

EXCERPT:

GARVIN: “We in South Carolina and the South Carolina House of Representatives are fighting regressive policies, and we've been doing that, Chris, for the last couple of days, and we will continue to do that as well throughout the day and well into the night, Chris. What we see today and what we've been seeing throughout the South is an attempt to take us backwards. I have a quote that I often like to say, and that is that it's starting to feel more like 1966 and not 2026. And with that being said, Chris, we are fighting against bad policy. We are fighting against voter disenfranchisement, and it's going to be really important that we stand up and that we make our voices heard and say that we're not going back.”
