Track Record
The Trump administration and Republicans in Columbia are on the attack — cutting programs working families depend on, making life more expensive, and cutting our healthcare. In moments like this, leadership matters. District 31 needs a representative who shows up and fights.
Mo Abusaft has spent his career taking on the hard fights — and winning. As a civil rights attorney, NAACP President, and Spartanburg County Councilman, Mo has delivered real results for real people against real opposition. The people of District 31 are working people. We believe if you want to keep your job, you have to go to work. That’s exactly how Mo has operated — and that’s how he’ll operate in the State House.
Proven Results
From public safety and accountability to infrastructure, housing, small business growth, and parks, Mo has already delivered measurable results for Spartanburg families.
