Friday Report - May 30, 2025

Members of the General Assembly returned to Columbia on Wednesday, pursuant to the sine die resolution (S. 292), to take up the conference report on the FY 2025-26 budget bill, H. 4025 as well as any vetoes by Gov. Henry McMaster. The Senate overrode the governor’s veto on the pending gun charges bill, S. 136 and sent it to the House. The House placed S. 136 on the calendar and adjourned without taking a vote on the governor’s veto. With the work completed on this year’s budget, it is unlikely that the General Assembly will reconvene before January in statewide session.

Items of interest to counties contained in the finalized version of the budget are discussed in this week's special edition of the Friday Report.
