Staff reports | The S.C. House Ways and Means committee on Thursday approved a $9.8 billion state budget proposal that would spend more money on teachers, nurses, guards and prisons. The proposal will be debated by the full House in two weeks.
The budget includes "a limited amount of new recurring projected revenue, just $180 million to spend — down from the $800 million they expected to have before the pandemic — and they also have $956 million of nonrecurring dollars available," according to The State.
