Every so often I have the opportunity to go to the Statehouse which, no matter what happens inside it, is a beautiful monument to the people of South Carolina. The buildings and grounds are immaculate, befitting the kind of state that we aspire to become.
Today, as the Legislative Co-Chair of SCATT, I appeared before a Senate Finance subcommittee to discuss two pieces of legislation. Really, the bills are only technical changes that will allow the law to mirror the 21st century operations of county governments.
The topics were necessary business, but not really deep or interesting enough to detail here. Still, every time I go there it reminds me that more people should go to the statehouse to enjoy the people’s building that’s available to us all – to remind ourselves of how far we’ve come, and how far we still need to go.
