William Timmons

Source-published biography

William began his professional career as a prosecutor in the Thirteenth Circuit Solicitor’s Office in Greenville, primarily serving victims of domestic violence and abuse. In this role, he saw inefficiencies in the criminal justice system that were wasting valuable tax dollars and impeding justice. He then helped create one central court for all domestic violence cases in Greenville County.

William Timmons

Source-published biography

In Washington, William was appointed to the House Financial Services Committee, a top committee where he serves as a voice for South Carolina’s citizens and small business community. His strong record as a principled conservative and his desire to shake things up in Washington is why he was chosen as the top Republican on the Modernization Committee, where he has helped pass over 100 recommendations to bring transparency and accountability to the federal government. Soon after being sworn in to Congress, William’s colleagues chose him to be their representative on the Republican Steering Committee to help guide the direction of the Republican Conference in the House.

Positions and priorities

A position shows what the candidate said—not FactVote's endorsement.

Each summary is supported by the candidate's own words from a campaign source, direct candidate response, or official primary record retained with the profile.

Immigration and border policy

Candidate position

Our southern border is a national security disaster. I’ve been to the border and seen firsthand the challenges facing our Border Patrol agents. I supported President Trump’s border wall and will continue fighting to finish it, end catch-and-release policies, stop the flow of fentanyl, and deport criminal illegal immigrants. A nation without borders is not a nation.

Make DC Accountable

Candidate position

Career politicians and unelected bureaucrats have made Washington less accountable to the people. I support term limits, greater transparency, and reforms that put power back in the hands of taxpayers — not special interests. Congress should work for the American people, not itself.

Economy, jobs, taxes, and affordability

Candidate position

Washington’s out-of-control spending is driving inflation and burying future generations in debt. I’ve consistently opposed reckless trillion-dollar spending bills and fought to rein in waste, fraud, and abuse. Families in South Carolina balance their budgets every month — Washington should too. Fiscal responsibility is essential to protecting our economy and national security.

Reproductive rights and health care

Candidate position

I am proudly pro-life and believe every life is a gift from God worth protecting. I support commonsense pro-life policies that defend the unborn and support mothers and families. I will continue standing for the sanctity of life and opposing radical efforts to expand taxpayer-funded abortion.

Public safety and justice

Candidate position

I will always support the brave men and women in law enforcement who risk their lives to keep our communities safe. I oppose efforts to defund the police and weaken public safety. Criminals should be prosecuted, violent offenders kept off our streets, and our law enforcement officers given the tools and respect they deserve. We must restore law and order and stand up for victims, not criminals.

Housing affordability

Candidate position

South Carolina families are paying more for groceries, gas, housing, and healthcare because of reckless Washington spending and failed Biden-era policies. I’m fighting to lower costs, cut wasteful spending, unleash American energy production, and stop the inflation crisis hurting working families. Washington doesn’t have a revenue problem — it has a spending problem. I’ll continue fighting to make life more affordable for families, workers, and small businesses across the Upstate.

Make a Contribution

Candidate position

I ran for Congress with one goal in mind: to make government work better for the American people. In Washington, I am fighting to rein in out-of-control spending and make our conservative values a priority. I will work hard to get results for the Upstate.

Every numbered U.S. House roll call published by the Clerk during the configured service window is reconciled through the member's exact Bioguide ID. Clerk XML through 2002 does not publish Bioguide IDs, so those rows require a candidate-specific official House identity and service bridge plus one unique exact published-name, party, and state tuple. A published roll without an identity-safe row is retained as an explicit source omission and is not labeled as a vote or absence. Voice votes and other actions without member-level roll calls are outside this archive.
