Rep. Nancy Mace plans to make announcement

DANIEL ISLAND, S.C. (FOX Carolina) – Congresswoman Nancy Mace made an announcement responding to a rape victim’s class action lawsuit Thursday on Daniel Island.

Rep. Mace represents the Charleston area, which is South Carolina’s only swing district. Mace introduced legislation banning transgender women from using women’s bathrooms in the U.S. Capitol. She has been outspoken about rape kit evidence legislation and calling for an investigation into Alpha Genesis Primate Research Center.

In February, Mace gave a speech on the House floor accusing four men of conspiring to commit rape and take nonconsensual exploitative photos and video for women and underage girls.

On Thursday, May 29, Rep. Mace said a rape survivor filed a class action lawsuit against three men she mentioned in her speech in February.

Congressman Mace said the victim was incapacitated and sexually assaulted which was was filmed. Rep. Mace said she discovered the footage in November 2023 and turned it over to law enforcement.

“This isn’t just about one woman, this is about predators who have operated with impunity for far too long,” said Mace. “The lawsuit filed today is only the start, only the first step toward justice for her and others. It’s proof predators can be exposed. That truth matters. That survivors have power. And that justice isn’t optional, it’s long overdue.”

The lawsuit was filed after more than a year of inaction from state authorities and seeks to hold the perpetrators accountable for the premeditated, deeply traumatizing assault.

“When the system fails to protect victims, it’s not just broken, it’s complicit,” said Mace. “Every woman harmed by predators deserves justice. If our Solicitor and Attorney General won’t fight for them, I will.”

Rep. Mace has filed more than 10 bills in the aftermath of her discovery.

In January, Rep. Mace said she was considering a run for South Carolina governor, but she has not made an official announcement.
