(AP) -- South Carolina House Republicans have an agenda for the upcoming legislative session and they're ready to share it.

House Speaker Bobby Harrell and Majority Leader Kenny Bingham are releasing their caucus agenda Thursday for the session that starts next week.

Requiring voters to show photo identification at the polls and requiring colleges to detail their spending online are likely on the list.

The mandates were in bills prefiled in November and sponsored by both Harrell and Bingham.

College officials have already backed the measure directing them to post online all of their monthly expenses.

Republicans have pledged to try again to require photo identification. The bill died last June as Senate Democrats pushed to pair it with allowing early voting.
