Republican Rep. Tom Rice (S.C.) slammed former President Trump in a statement on Saturday following the former president’s rally in South Carolina, calling him “a would-be tyrant.”

At the rally, Trump said Rice is a “disaster” and “total fool” and criticized the congressman for voting to impeach him following the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. Rice was one of 10 GOP House members to vote for impeachment at the time.

..... Rice also reiterated his opposition to the Jan. 6 attack and to Trump .....

Trump won the district Rice represents by an 18-point margin in 2020, but Rice won reelection that year by a still higher margin of nearly 24 points.

Tom Rice, 40+ GOPs introduce new bill to dismantle ATF firearms registry

MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (WMBF) - A new bill sponsored by Congressman Tom Rice (R-SC) seeks to delete all existing firearm transaction records.

Rice announced his sponsorship of the No Retaining Every Gun In a System That Restricts Your (REGISTRY) Rights Act on Wednesday.

This bill will direct the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to delete all existing firearm transaction records in their systems.

ATF utilizes out-of-business FFL records to assist in the investigation of firearm thefts when incomplete identifying information is available. Since 1968, ATF has received several hundred million such records and its Out-of-Business Records Repository is the only one of its kind in the world.
