As the South Carolina arm of the Young Republican National Federation, we work hard to support and advance the conservative values of the Republican Platform by recruiting, training, and electing the next generation of Republicans across the Palmetto State!

The Young Republicans (YRs) are the oldest political youth organization in the United States. As an official auxiliary to the Republican Party, the YRs reach out to Republicans, 18 to 40 years of age, and provide them with better political knowledge and understanding of the issues of the day.

SCYR Executive Committee

SCYR is governed by our executive committee, except when the State Convention is in session.  Voting members include the chairman of each chartered local chapter, all elected officers of the SCYR, and the Third Vice-Chairman of the South Carolina Republican Party. Any officers of the YRNF residing within the State of South Carolina and appointed SCYR officers serve as ex-officio members of the committee, without a vote.
