The City of Ariel was pleased to welcome Representative, Alan Clemmons, of the great state of South Carolina. He represents District 107 – Horry County. Mr. Clemmons stopped in Ariel as part of a two-week fact-finding mission of Israel. In particular, he was interested in seeing Judea and Samaria with his own eyes.

Rep. Clemmons is a staunch supporter of Israel, and the author the ‘South Carolina Stands with Israel Resolution,’ a bill, passed in June, that cites the Jewish people’s G-d-given rights to the Land of Israel, and that called on the State of Israel to retain control over Judea and Samaria. The bill also highlighted what it termed the “cordial and mutually beneficial relations” enjoyed by Israel and South Carolina since 1948.

The S.C. state congressman met with Mayor Nachman and toured the Ariel Regional Center for the Performing Arts, Ariel University Center, the Lowell Milken Family Sports and Recreation Complex, the Ariel National Leadership Development Center, and the city’s Industrial Park.

Mr. Clemmons was very impressed with what he saw, and said that he intends to do what he can to extend the cooperative partnership between South Carolina and Israel, and the city of Ariel.
