Amends South Carolina ethics laws to include political party chairmen as public officials and lobbyists.
This bill amends South Carolina's ethics laws to redefine "public official" to include the head of each certified political party. It also makes certified political parties lobbyists' principals and subjects them to the state's lobbyists and lobbying laws. Those acting on behalf of certified political parties that engage in lobbying activities are considered lobbyists and must comply with the state's lobbyists and lobbying laws. The changes take effect upon approval by the Governor.
