I’ve fought for common-sense protections in Bluffton and Beaufort, and I’ll bring that same fight to the ACE Basin and Colleton county. Let’s choose a future that protects our air, water, wildlife, and families.

As you all know, the Ace Basin is one of our Lowcountry jewels. For 50 years, the folks in Canadys lived in the shadows of coal ash.

We shouldn’t ask our neighbors to trade one fossil fuel burden for another, especially one that threatens 70+ acres of or pristine wetlands with new pipelines. We can provide reliable energy for SC without ruining our most sacred national treasures.

I've never been happier for a TACO Tuesday! The next two weeks must see tangible action from Congress, to rein in the president, and ensure that the threat of Nukes remain off the table, even in 3am social media posts.

That is exactly why I am running for SC01. I want to share with the students my experience as a scholar in foreign trade and international relations and how I can contribute to this conversation in Washington.

This Thursday from 6-7pm, I am speaking to College of Charleston students about the urgent moment we are in. We have an opportunity in the midterms to reel in some of the unconstitutional behaviors and unaccountability that exists in this administration.

When I am in Congress, I will remember what the residents in the Lowcountry are telling me - they want a New American Dream.
That’s why I’m running, because we can afford to set our people up for a good life when everyone pays their fair share.

Many of them are very concerned about the way the Trump administration is overspending on unconstitutional foreign policy, as well as the ways major corporations are paying less in taxes than we are.

Some of the local Dorchester County Democrats held a candidate meet-and-greet in Summerville this week. It was a great opportunity for me to listen to what people in Summerville are seeing on the ground in their community.

This isn't about politics. It's about what we owe the men and women who just pledged their lives to this nation.

Our state government - and federal government - need to stay out of people's personal lives and who they want to love. Fix our roads, help those of us struggling to find jobs right now!

Big super PACs and outside groups put their thumb and big buck$ on the scale to anoint candidates. I’m seeing it happen in my congressional district where out of state groups are endorsing a newcomer to my state. Fundraising is fine but I prefer a town hall & candidate forum to choose my rep. #SC01

MAYRA RIVERA VAZQUEZ FOR CONGRESS
South Carolina's First Congressional District

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
April 1, 2026
Rivera Vazquez Condemns Trump's Attack on the 14th Amendment as Supreme Court Hears Birthright Citizenship Case
“No president has the power to rewrite the Constitution by executive order. This case is about whether we keep our promise to every child born on American soil.”
BEAUFORT, S.C. — As the United States Supreme Court heard oral arguments today in Trump v. Barbara, the most significant constitutional challenge to birthright citizenship in American history; Mayra Rivera Vazquez, Democratic candidate for South Carolina’s First Congressional District, issued the following statement condemning the Trump administration’s effort to strip citizenship from children born on U.S. soil.
“The 14th Amendment is not a loophole. It is a promise,” said Rivera Vazquez. “Written in the aftermath of the Civil War to ensure that no government, not a court, not a president, not a king, could ever again decide that some people born on American soil are less than citizens. That promise is on trial today.
“I am running for Congress in South Carolina’s First District. My community knows what it means to be told you don’t fully belong here. We know what it means to have your dignity questioned, your legitimacy challenged, your children’s future put on the line. That is exactly what this executive order does and it is exactly what the 14th Amendment was written to prevent.

That is exactly what this executive order does and it is exactly what the 14th Amendment was written to prevent.

Every federal court that has reviewed this order has found it unconstitutional. Legal scholars across the political spectrum have called it a rewriting of the Constitution itself. The plain text of the amendment is unambiguous: all persons born in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof are citizens. There is nothing ambiguous about that. There is nothing to reinterpret.
If this administration succeeds, it will not just affect future children, it will cast a shadow over the citizenship of millions of Americans going back decades, creating the kind of permanent underclass this nation fought a Civil War to abolish.
I stand with the families whose children’s citizenship hangs in the balance today. I will carry this fight to Congress, where I will oppose any effort, legislative or otherwise, to undermine the 14th Amendment. The floor of our democracy is not negotiable.”

In Berkeley County, I heard how difficult it can be to start a family. I believe, as a nation, we have the ability to provide universal childcare so families don’t have to choose between going to work and raising children. When elected to Congress, I will fight to support families across #sc01 .

Last week, I had the pleasure of meeting with Daniel Island residents in their homes alongside friends. One of my favorite parts of public service is listening to people’s concerns and discussing the issues we can solve together.

The United States of America would not exist without immigrants. Men and women from a myriad of countries have proudly worn the uniform of the U.S. Marines. They have sacrificed, fought, and died for a country that gave them hope.

I'm thrilled to announce that the March On PAC has endorsed my campaign. This is the same PAC that took back Mar-a-Lago's district in a Florida special election, and I'm excited to get down to business!

Service and Skill. That's what should be considered in a promotion. It's not a meritocracy if you're excluding some of your best people.
