South Carolina Gas Tax Rebate Push | Columbia News

Gas prices in South Carolina are soaring, with regular hitting $3.92 and diesel at $6.04—over a dollar up from last year. State Rep. Jordan Pace is pushing for a special legislative session to approve a $200 rebate for every taxpayer plus an extra $100 for households with dependents, aiming to ease the burden on families. The plan, estimated at $500 million, would fund itself by reallocating existing budget earmarks and agency balances—no new taxes needed. But whether lawmakers will convene remains uncertain as drivers continue paying the steep pump prices. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
