Legislators Take Easter Break in South Carolina House
The South Carolina House pauses its usual Tuesday to Thursday sessions for an Easter recess while the Senate also takes Thursday off. This marks the House’s second week off this year and follows a March 21 furlough after the budget debate. Each week saves about 50,000 for mileage and meals. The House had five furlough weeks in 2009 and four in 2010 to trim spending during the recession.
