"The State" Newspaper Prints Incorrect Budget Amount for Museum
Jun 15, 2010
COLUMBIA, SC - June 15, 2010 - The State Newspaper printed an article today about the Governor’s budget vetos. This story has an incorrect figure for the South Carolina Confederate Relic Room and Military Museum’s budget. The museum’s general fund budget of $765,000 is a part of the Budget and Control Board’s total general fund budget of $25 million. Governor Sanford’s Veto #52 would eliminate the entire $25 million, including the museum’s much smaller budget, and will be voted on as a single line item by the General Assembly beginning today.
