AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Public Health Alarm: The CDC reports 2,318 confirmed measles cases in the U.S. in 2026—more than all of 2025 and the highest total since 1991—driven by declining MMR coverage and outbreaks, including a major South Carolina cluster that spread nationally. South Carolina Spotlight: The measles surge is tied to an outbreak that began last October in a close-knit evangelical Slavic community in the Palmetto State, later expanding to other states like Utah and Virginia. Tech & Privacy: A South Carolina bill would tighten oversight of automated surveillance after Greer fired two officers for misusing Flock license plate reader cameras. Security Screening Shift: TSA Gold+ is expanding, with Charleston International Airport among the first to move toward private contractor screening. Climate & Water: NOAA rejected a petition to protect a right whale migration corridor along the East Coast, a setback for groups pushing limits on offshore wind. Politics & STEM Policy: Democrats chose South Carolina to host the first 2028 presidential primary, setting up a high-stakes early spotlight on the state.
