The South Carolina Freedom Caucus is a legislative caucus in the South Carolina General Assembly that promotes conservative policies, such as steep spending reductions and a social agenda critical of transgender health care, abortion, and LGBT+ initiatives. It is affiliated with the State Freedom Caucus Network. Its members all belong to the Republican Party.
The Caucus has been accused of performative, obstructionist tactics, while supporters argue the Caucus is advancing conservative policies that have been ignored by the state's traditional conservatives.
