S.C. Senate Republicans, led by Majority Leader Harvey S. Peeler called on the S.C. House of Representatives today to pass the Fiscal Year 2007-2008 budget.
“It’s time to stop the blame game and do what’s in the best interests of the people of South Carolina,” said Senator Peeler.
“The truth is that the budget was approved in conference committee before session ended on June 7, yet the House refuses to sign the conference report unless they get their special interest road projects in the DOT reform bill. The Senate refuses to accept the House’s demand to add hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars for special road projects to an agency that has already squandered millions.”
