South Carolina's House of Representatives is due to begin debate Wednesday on a bill to remove the Confederate flag from the state capitol's grounds, where it has flown for five decades despite being viewed by many as a symbol of slavery.
The bill passed the state Senate by a wide margin on Tuesday with only three "no" votes and has the backing of South Carolina's Republican Governor Nikki Haley.
The bill's swift progress marks a dramatic turnaround in sentiment from only a few months ago.
