THIS WEEK IN SOUTH CAROLINA
There are 3 days remaining in this legislative session. By law, the General Assembly must adjourn sine die at 5 o’clock on Thursday, May 12 but may return to finish work on the budget or other items agreed upon by both bodies. Since this is the second year of a two-year session, bills that did not pass this session will die at the close of the session.
BUDGET
The House is expected to take up the Senate’s amendments to the budget as early as this week. If the House votes to non-concur in the Senate amendments, a conference committee will be appointed to negotiate the differences in the House and Senate versions.
