Republican Rep. Nancy Mace's House Defaced With Antifa Graffiti, Expletives

A South Carolina GOP congresswoman posted several pictures of alleged vandalism which occurred to her Charleston home Monday morning, including "Antifa" symbols, expletives and pro-labor union demands.

Representative Nancy Mace said she is concerned about her neighbors and two children after graffiti was spray-painted on and around her home early Monday morning. Charleston Police said they are investigating the vandalism, which includes generic phrases such as "all politicians are bastards," as well as a demand for her to pass a specific piece of collective bargaining legislation. Mace on Tuesday morning responded to the alleged vandalism by calling for people across the political spectrum to "take it down a notch" in social media posts as well as in day-to-day rhetoric.

Mace, who campaigned and won this past year as a single mother and small business owner, said that the vandalism to her Daniel Island home is the second such incident in recent months.

"In the early morning hours of Memorial Day, my home, where I'm raising my two children, was vandalized with Antifa symbols and profanity. Although my kids and I are thankfully fine, these criminal acts are unacceptable no matter your politics," Mace posted to Facebook Tuesday morning.

"We should all be able to feel safe in our own homes, regardless of our political beliefs. I sincerely appreciate law enforcement doing all they can to find the criminal trespassers. This is the 2nd time I've been a target for vandalism in the last few months," Mace wrote.

Graffiti on her home included phrases such as "no masters, no gods" and an "A" logo with a circle around it which is frequently associated with the radical group dubbed, Antifa. But one message spray-painted on the home called for her to support a pro-labor union bill that many conservative politicians have denounced as "anti-business."

The bill, the Protecting the Right to Organize or PRO Act, has been denounced by numerous small business organizations who say it obliges employees to join unions.

"During union-organizing efforts, this legislation would force Virginia workers to sign cards authorizing a union in front of their colleagues and organizers themselves, doing away with the time-honored tradition of voting by secret ballot. This is an attempt to compel workers to vote for unions at the expense of their privacy and freedom of choice," wrote Terry Durkin, vice president of public policy for the Roanoke regional chamber, in a Tuesday opinion piece about the bill.

Mace did not address the PRO Act specifically, but instead condemned the alleged vandals which police are still investigating. Newsweek reached out to Mace for any additional remarks or updates Tuesday morning.

Another message from the vandals on the street in front of her home simply read, "f**k you Nancy."

"I also hope people realize just how hard I'm working for the 1st Congressional District and also how hard I'm working across both sides of the aisle - a particularly difficult task - given the vitriol of our current political environment. We can and should do better for our kids and for our country," the Republican congresswoman wrote Tuesday.
