H5100 is the $14.5 billion General Appropriations Act for FY 2024-25.
The Senate passed H5100 on June 26, 2024, by a vote of 41 to 0. We have assigned minuses to the nays because this bill is comprised of profligate amounts of illegitimate taxation and spending. Not only is it full of numerous earmarks and pet projects that far exceed income and property tax relief, but it doubles the funding to the Office of Resilience, which seeks to implement Biden-Harris’ pro-UN Agenda 2030 “Green New Deal” policies. Individual liberty and state sovereignty require fiscal responsibility. South Carolina should end big government and reckless out-of-control spending by eliminating the immoral and anti-constitutional forms of taxation that take from citizens the wages they have rightfully earned.
