Bill > H3188

This bill seeks to prevent South Carolina courts and other enforcement authorities from enforcing any foreign laws, whether secular or religious, that would not grant the parties involved the same fundamental liberties, rights, and privileges granted under the U.S. and South Carolina Constitutions, such as due process, freedom of religion, speech, press, and privacy. It also voids any contracts that provide for the choice of a foreign law or a foreign jurisdiction to govern disputes, if the chosen law or jurisdiction would not grant these constitutional protections. The bill includes exceptions for certain ecclesiastical matters of religious organizations. The bill aims to protect South Carolina residents from the application of foreign laws that could violate their constitutional rights.
