Rep. Jonathon Hill’s speech at the Rally to End Abortion at the South Carolina Statehouse on May 4th, 2021.

Electing judges is one of the most significant things we will ever do as legislators, and for this reason alone we should be doing it on the record. Anything less creates a cloak of secrecy that invites corruption.

S.C. Representative Jonathon Hill spoke out concerning the election of Judge Edward “Ned” Miller in the “MUST SEE VIDEO” above. His statements were interrupted by Minority Leader, S.C. Democrat Todd Rutherford of Richland County. Rutherford is himself a lawyer who serves on the Judicial Merit Selection Commission (JMSC) along with his close ally, Senator Luke Rankin of Horry County. Senate President Harvey Peeler overruled Rutherford’s objections and a damning reading of Miller’s court history in regards to the Bryant family was then put forward by Hill.
When the bill makes it to the House floor, State Rep. Jonathon Hill said he plans to try to replace it with the broader “constitutional carry” version. “I certainly think that we can do better than a restricted open carry,” said Hill, R-Townville, who added that he fears that if they pass the more limited version, the Legislature won’t consider any more gun bills in the future.
Hill did not join the overwhelming majority of his colleagues in wearing a face covering on the floor of the statehouse when lawmakers began their session in Columbia last week, and he is opposing a proposed rule that would require people to wear masks at meetings of a legislative committee on which he serves.
