AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Beaches for the weekend: Dr. Beach just crowned Poipu Beach in Hawaii as the #1 U.S. beach for 2026, and Florida still dominates the top tier—St. Andrews State Park in Panama City is No. 2, with Caladesi Island State Park (No. 3) and Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park (No. 6) also making the list. Road-trip reality check: Memorial Day travel is rolling out with higher fuel costs—AAA says Arizona gas hit a four-year high, and South Carolina is bracing for busy roads. Safety push: South Carolina’s “100 Deadly Days of Summer” kicks off with seat belt enforcement starting May 22–25, after preliminary 2025 data showed nearly half of summer crash deaths involved unbuckled drivers. Local note: The S.C. Senate’s congressional redistricting debate is still stuck—no vote yet, and lawmakers may keep meeting into the Memorial Day weekend.

Note: AI summary from news headlines; neutral sources weighted more to help reduce bias in the result.
