Report of the South Carolina State Flag Study Committee

Abstract

The South Carolina State Flag Study Committee was first established in Proviso 117.158 (FY 2018/19) of the South Carolina State Budget and continued in existence with passage of budget Proviso 117.139 (FY 2019/20). The text of these provisos charged the Committee with “proposing an official, uniform design for the state flag based on historically accurate details and legislative adoptions.” It is submitting this report to summarize its efforts in standardizing what has long been considered one of the most attractive, recognizable, and marketable state flags in the nation.
