In this episode of Statehouse Spotlights, host Ashley Mullins sits down with South Carolina Sen. Greg Hembree to discuss the expansion and strengthening of the state’s education scholarship account (ESA) program. Just months after the program faced a significant legal setback, South Carolina leaders acted decisively to protect educational opportunities for thousands of students.
Sen. Hembree, the bill’s sponsor and Chair of the Senate Education Committee, shares insights into why the ESA program matters, how the new law prioritizes equity and accountability, and what the future holds for educational opportunity in South Carolina.
Join us for an inside look at how South Carolina overcame legal and political challenges to put students first—and how other states can learn from their journey.
