SC Senate Journal - March 30, 2010 - Remarks of SC Senator Mike Rose (R-Dorchester/Charleston)

www.scstatehouse.gov/sess118_2009-2010/sj10/20100330.htm

Excerpts:

"There is a trend in the last few years in the U.S. Supreme Court. I've got three cases here in which the U.S. Supreme Court upheld state laws that conflicted with laws of the federal government."

"Today we have a new theory. We have a new plan of action endorsed by the U.S. Supreme Court steadily growing, case by case, to carve out areas in which the states can preserve their own rights. And we should take advantage of this."

"We need to pass more legislation that preserves fundamental rights for the citizens of our states; ... "

"When you hear lawyers and their conflicting theories -- I think it's been pretty much one-sided what's been said here today -- remember there is authority that allows states to pass laws that give our citizens more protections than does the federal government, and only by testing new laws, step by step, are we going to see what the outer limits of those state protections are. I think we ought to proactively establish and litigate what are our citizens' rights. We ought to be -- I wouldn't use the word ashamed -- but how can we justify -- how can we say when our forefathers sacrificed so much to stand up to federal authority, that we're not now going to take advantage of this legal way of doing the same, just because it might cost a lot of attorney fees or be a lot of trouble?"

Republican Leadership in SC Senate Blocking Personhood for Pre-born Bill - S.450

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

March 26, 2010

"Republican Leadership in SC Senate Blocking Personhood for Pre-born Bill - S.450"


Columbia [ SC State House ] - On Thursday (March 25) Senator Jake Knotts (R - W.Columbia / Lexington) said "No" to Johnny Gardner's (dir., Voice of the Unborn) face-to-face request for a public hearing for S.450 ! Gardner asked Republican Senator Knotts if Knotts would consider letting us have a hearing on Senator Bright's bill (the SC Personhood Bill) ? Senator Knotts said "No".

Time is running out in the 2009-2010 legislative session to pass S.450, the SC Personhood Bill, to END "abortion". We have perhaps 2-3 weeks to get the bill out of REPUBLICAN Senator Jake Knotts' subcommittee. Even though we have 23 Senate co-sponsors ( 1/2 the entire SC Senate ), and even though three out of six members on Jake Knotts' subcommittee itself are co-sponsors, Knotts is refusing to even grant a public hearing !!!

Please call Senator Jake Knotts now at (803) 755-6253 (H) and (803) 212-6350 (O) and ask him WHY will he not even grant a public hearing for S.450 when 50% of the entire SC Senate is co-sponsoring the bill, and 50% of his own Judiciary Subcommittee is co-sponsoring the bill ? [ Knotts was appointed as chairman of this Judiciary subcommittee by Senator Glenn McConnell (R-Charleston), Judiciary Committee chairman, who is NOT a co-sponsor of S.450. Republican Senator Glenn McConnell is also President Pro Tempore of the SC Senate. ]

Ask REPUBLICAN Senator Jake Knotts to reconsider his refusal to grant a public hearing, to stop trying to block this pro-life / anti-abortion legislation designed to recognize pre-birth human beings as "persons", and to schedule a hearing for S.450 as soon as possible !!! Additional information is available on the home page of http://www.christianlifeandliberty.net/

Also call Republican Judiciary Committee chairman and SC Senate Pro Tempore Glenn McConnell at (843) 571-3921 (H) and (803) 212-6610 (O) and (843) 747-7554 (Bus.), and ask him why his appointed subcommittee chairman, Senator Jake Knotts, is refusing to even grant a hearing for S.450 ? Request Sen. McConnell to ask Sen. Knotts to schedule a public hearing for S.450.

God is judging South Carolina for over 300,000 [ surgical ] "abortions" - Read Psalm 106:37-44, KJB. When we are concerned enough about the right to life of the innocent pre-born to cry out for JUSTICE for THEM [ NOT just "regulation" of their murder ], THEN God will deliver US from the wicked rulers and their encroaching statist tyranny which has already begun to oppress us. ESTABLISH JUSTICE for the pre-born - PASS S.450 - the SC Personhood Bill.

Republican Leadership of SC General Assembly Refuses to Pass Personhood for Pre-born

LETTER TO THE EDITOR / OP-ED

March 15, 2010 / Revised March 27, 2010


"Republican Leadership of SC General Assembly Refuses to Pass Personhood for Pre-born"

For TWELVE YEARS now (beginning in 1998), "Personhood" legislation has continually, every session, been filed in the SC Legislature, without being passed into law. As we approach the 2010 Primaries and General Election, some Christian and constitutionalist voters are taking a harder look at whether or not certain Republican officeholders are actually "RINO's". The question should be asked, "Who are the SC House and Senate members blocking passage of legislation recognizing the legal PERSONHOOD of pre-born human beings from the moment of fertilization ?"

Republicans have continually been in the Majority in the SC House since Jan. 1995, and Republicans have continually been in the Majority in the SC Senate since Jan. 2001, and yet this bill has only passed the SC House once in April 2005 (albeit with a fatal flaw rape exception), before being sent to the Senate, and dying after two public hearings. The Creator-endowed unalienable right to life is held to be the first of the "self-evident" "truths" of the 1776 Declaration of Independence, which is part of the organic law of the United States Code. There are presently 73 Republicans and 51 Democrats in the SC House, giving the supposedly "pro-life" party a plus 22-vote advantage. In the SC Senate, there are presently 27 Republicans and 19 Democrats, giving the supposedly "pro-life" party a plus eight-vote advantage. The SC Personhood Bills (H.3526 and S.450 at www.scstatehouse.gov) are being held up by the Republican House and Senate Leadership. The House version (H.3526) presently has 54 co-sponsors (including five Democrats), however neither the Constitutional Laws Subcommittee chairman (Rep. Greg Delleney, R-Chester), nor the Judiciary Committee chairman (Rep. Jim Harrison, R-Columbia), nor the House Speaker (Rep. Bobby Harrell, R-Charleston) are co-sponsors of the bill. The Senate version (S.450) presently has 23 co-sponsors (including four Democrats), which is 50% of the entire SC Senate, however neither the Judiciary Subcommittee chairman (Sen. Jake Knotts, R-West Columbia / Lexington), nor the Judiciary Comm. chairman (Sen. Glenn McConnell, R - Charleston), nor the Senate President Pro-Tem (also Sen. Glenn McConnell, R-Charleston), are co-sponsors of the bill. Last month (Feb. 4), a public hearing was held for H.3526, however no vote was taken; just as no vote was taken in a Feb. 2008 public hearing.

It is the REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP in the SC House and SC Senate which is protecting the ongoing slaughter of the pre-born, approx. 7,000 pre-birth children murdered in their mothers' wombs each year in South Carolina, by surgical abortion alone. It is the shed blood of innocent children which is crying to God from the ground for JUSTICE (not just incremental "regulation") which God Himself is hearing, and repaying, with Divine Judgment, in turning South Carolina and America over "into the hand of the heathen", such that "they that [hate us rule] over [us]", and "[our] enemies also [oppress us]". Read Psalm 106:37-44, KJB. When we care enough to cry out for JUSTICE for the Pre-born, THEN God will deliver us.
