Social Media Comment Policy

Congressman Ralph Norman utilizes various social media platforms to communicate with the citizens of South Carolina's 5th Congressional District regarding matters of federal policy, and for his constituents to provide pertinent feedback regarding those communications.

While comments from visitors are always welcome, they will be periodically monitored and must comply with policies of that social media platform and these terms of use:

Comments that (i) are unrelated to the purpose of this page or are not topically related to the specifics of the posting; (ii) contain fighting words, graphic or gratuitous violence, vulgar language, profanity, nudity, obscene or indecent language or sexual content, or false representations of fact; (iii) promote or incite illegal or fraudulent transactions or activities; (iv) threaten, intimidate, harass, or defame any person or organization; (v) otherwise violate Facebook’s terms of use, such as hate speech; (vi) constitute “spam,” such as content that appears to be from internet bots or repetitive, copy-paste statements; (vii) are commercial in nature, such as advertising, promotion, or endorsement of services or products, or solicitation of funds; (viii) contain personally identifiable information about another individual; (ix) misrepresent the commenter’s identity or affiliation; (x) contain links to any other website; and/or (xi) constitute campaign-related communications, electioneering, or fundraising efforts will be removed.

Repeated violations of this policy may result in the inability of the author to comment on future posts. 

Comments posted by users on our social media platforms do not necessarily reflect the views of the Congressman or the members of his staff.

*** Threats or threatening statements of any kind will be forwarded to the appropriate law enforcement authorities.
