House District 9 Report – Rep. Anne Thayer

One thing that is certain-SC politics is never boring!!

As everyone knows by now, The State Supreme Court ordered the political parties to remove numerous candidates from ballots across the state. The candidates were removed for not filing the proper paperwork at the time of their filing for office. This year candidates were required to file electronically but were also required to file a hard copy with their candidacy application. Obviously there was much confusion across the state as this affected numerous candidates.

House District 9 report – Rep. Anne Thayer

Dear Friends,

The House of Representatives is on furlough the first two weeks of April. The furlough coincides with the half-way point in our legislative session. The two week furlough shortens the session and saves the taxpayers approximately $100,000.

I am pleased to report SC’s unemployment rate has declined for the seventh consecutive month. Our unemployment rate fell from 9.3% to 9.1% in February. This is still a high unemployment rate, but it is good to see the rate moving in a downward direction. We will continue to strive to get more people back to work in the private sector.

As most of you know, a year ago I introduced legislation to address the threat of baths salts and other synthetic drugs. I am pleased to report my Bath Salt bill passed full committee in the Senate and is now on the Senate calendar. If we can get the bill off of the calendar and onto the floor, we should be able to finally pass this important piece of legislation into law.

Arguably the most important bill the House debates each year is the Appropriations Bill – the legislation that spends your hard-earned tax dollars.
