Riddle me this Nancy Disgrace @NancyMace, as a rape survivor (I’m one myself, but I don’t use the term victim), you claim to be an advocate yet I have never seen you actually advocating for survivors in a real way. I was curious, so I Googled ‘Nancy Mace supports survivors of sexual assault,’ nada. Then I went to your website, because I thought for sure you have links to resources, snippets of your work helping and advocating for women and girls survivors…nada. What I did find interesting was under the ‘Women’s Rights’ link on your site you talked about the Citadel and your support of pregnancy crisis centers. Not rape crisis centers, of which there are 15 in the state you represent. In the wake of Laken Riley’s brutal rape and murder that the GOP has co-opted for optics, I thought for sure you would amplify the dangers coeds face on college and University campuses and the resources available at Clemson University and the University of South Carolina that help survivors of sexual assault on campus…nada. Not a mention of any work with or support for the South Carolina Coalition Against Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault, or the South Carolina Sexual Assault and Child Advocacy Center. I’ll wait… – at El Paso, TX
