SC H4880

Declares February 22, 2026, as "Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women Justice and Awareness Day" in South Carolina

Recognizes the crisis of missing and murdered indigenous women, girls, and two-spirit people (MMIWG2S) as a national emergency affecting Native American communities, including those in South Carolina

Acknowledges indigenous women experience disproportionately high rates of violence, abduction, and homicide, with many cases unsolved due to jurisdictional gaps and systemic barriers

Encourages South Carolina citizens to display or wear red on February 22, 2026, as the red dress serves as a national symbol representing missing or murdered indigenous women

Directs copies of the resolution be sent to South Carolina's federally and state-recognized tribes, Governor Henry McMaster, and the South Carolina Commission for Community Advancement and Engagement
