Lawmaker Backs H 3290 Against County Flow Control
S C Rep Bill Hixon argues the Business Freedom to Choose Act blocks county flow control like Horry County 2009 rules that forced private waste haulers to use government owned facilities. He cites impacts on small businesses, job losses, and protects existing bonds while noting amendments exclude residential waste and preserve contract rights in a competitive market. The Aiken Standard invites reader letters to the editor with submission rules.

Preventing death by own action editorial urges action
An editorial in the May 27 edition of the Aiken Standard discusses death by one’s own action and the reasons people may end their lives. It notes social agencies that see suicide attempts, the failures and perceived successes, and how they try to offer alternatives. The writer shares personal anecdotes of relatives who chose to end suffering with Do Not Resuscitate orders and medical guidance, and argues for stronger legislation, crisis hotlines, and public awareness to prevent such crises. The piece calls readers to contact national representatives to support proactive measures and urges practical steps, like labeling warnings on medications and expanding crisis resources.
