Rep. Nancy Mace Releases Statement on July 4th Attack on North Charleston Police Officers

CHARLESTON, S.C. (July 6, 2026) - Congresswoman Nancy Mace (R-SC) released the following statement after two North Charleston Police officers were assaulted at a July 4th block party in the Chicora-Cherokee community:

"What was supposed to be a day of celebration for 250 years of American freedom turned into a horrifying sight in North Charleston.

"Attacks on law enforcement are unacceptable. Every person responsible must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. We stand with the North Charleston Police Department and are relieved both officers are back on duty.

"Our law enforcement leave their homes every single day knowing they may not come home. On the Fourth of July, they left their families behind to protect their community. They were met with violence.

"Such a disgrace. God bless our men and women in blue. Protect them at all costs."
