South Carolina lawmakers approve $6B budget plan
South Carolina legislators pass a $6 billion state budget sending a plan to Governor Nikki Haley. The GOP-led House 57-54 and Senate 24-17 vote funds schools slightly more per student while cutting Medicaid and welfare-to-work benefits and offering a $146 million unemployment tax relief to businesses. The plan relies on $210 million in higher than expected tax receipts and faces potential line-item vetoes.
