The bill H. 4787 seeks to amend the South Carolina Code of Laws by adding a new section, 30-5-14, which prohibits clerks of court or registers of deeds from recording any deeds that convey title or ownership interests in real property to the Chinese Communist Party, the People's Republic of China, or any citizen thereof. It stipulates that any deed recorded in violation of this provision will be considered invalid.
Additionally, the bill defines key terms related to the prohibition, specifying that "Chinese Communist Party" encompasses all its agencies, institutions, and instrumentalities, while "People's Republic of China" includes all its agencies, institutions, instrumentalities, and political subdivisions. The act will take effect upon approval by the Governor.
