In recently resurfaced video from 2021, incumbent South Carolina Representative William Timmons is seen promoting diversity, equity and inclusion in Congress.
An incumbent South Carolina Republican lawmaker is under fire after resurfaced videos show his apparent support for diversity, equity, and inclusion in the halls of Congress. In the newly resurfaced videos from 2021, Rep. William Timmons, R-S.C., is heard touting his support and promotion of DEI in a hearing titled, 'Recruiting, Empowering and Retaining a Diverse Congressional Staff.
Something we should all be able to agree on is that Congress would be better served if the staff wasn’t made up of the children of DC insiders who grew up in the Swamp. Someone from the Upstate of South Carolina should have the same opportunity to serve in our nation’s capital as someone from Arlington, VA,' Timmons wrote. 'The 2019 ModCom recommendation has nothing to do with 2024 DEI,' Timmons said.
Meanwhile, I’ve been working to get this leftist indoctrination out of classrooms and to cut funding from universities that push these discriminatory practices. He’s everything wrong with the swamp. The difference between us is stark — he works for the Left, I oppose them.'
