COLUMBIA, S.C. All seven Congressional Representatives, both Republican and Democrat, are found themselves in agreement on a bill that will preserve Revolutionary War sites in the Carolinas.
After 10 years South Carolina leaders are closer than ever to making it a reality.
A bi-partisan effort led by U.S. Representative Jim Clyburn, has been pushing to preserve Revolutionary War sites in both North and South Carolina, while creating a driving-trail linking those sites.
Clyburn testified last month before the House Subcommittee on National Park, Forests, and Public Lands, saying; When we hear the story of the American Revolution, we don t often learn of the war s Southern Campaign or applaud the dramatic impact it had on the Revolution.
