Statement From Congresswoman Nancy Mace On RJ May Pleading Guilty

September 29, 2025 Press Release (Charleston, S.C., September 29, 2025) – Congresswoman Nancy Mace (R-SC-01) released the following statement on RJ May pleading guilty: "The allegations against former South Carolina State Representative RJ May aren’t just vile, they’re evil. His guilty plea proves it. He betrayed children, the public trust, and the most basic standards of human decency. Predators deserve the harshest penalties under the law. For child rapists, that should mean the death penalty. Our job is to protect kids, not coddle predators. And anyone who harms a child should know: justice will be swift, severe, and without exception." Attributed to Congresswoman Nancy Mace ### Issues : Oversight & Accountability Women & Victim's Rights
