The bill H. 4519 aims to amend the South Carolina Code of Laws by adding Article 29 to Chapter 1, Title 1, which prohibits public entities from requiring individuals to disclose their race on applications for admission or employment. This legislation defines a "public entity" to include all state agencies, offices, departments, political subdivisions, institutions of higher learning, public school districts, and public charter schools.

If enacted, this bill would ensure that race is not a factor in the application process for public entities in South Carolina, promoting a more equitable approach to admissions and employment. The bill is set to take effect upon approval by the Governor.
