Summary
South Carolina lawmakers are pushing for a special session to address soaring gas prices, with Freedom Caucus leader Rep. Jordan Pace proposing a targeted rebate: $300 for households with dependents and $200 for others — totaling about $500 million. The plan, which aims to relieve families without raising taxes, would redirect funds from unused appropriations and agency balances. With regular gas hitting $3.92 and diesel at $6.04 per gallon — up sharply from last year — the proposal reflects mounting pressure on everyday South Carolinians at the pump. Whether the special session moves forward remains uncertain. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
