Dear
Friends,
Thank
you
for
subscribing
to
my
weekly
e-newsletter.
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
update
you
on
what’s
going
on
in
Washington
and
at
home
in
South
Carolina,
and
as
always,
welcome
your
feedback. Celebrating
Our
Olympians
We
come
together
to
cheer
our
Olympians
on
to
victory,
and
we
all
feel
a
burst
of
pride
in
both
them
and
our
country
when
we
see
them
win.
South
Carolina
was
especially
glad
to
send
Lauren
Cholewinski
to
the
2014
Winter
Olympics
as
a
speed
skater.
This
year
our
230
athletes
came
from
38
different
states,
making
countless
schools,
coaches,
churches,
trainers,
parents
and
friends
extremely
proud.
Unfortunately,
the
tax
code
works
against
those
who
come
home
victorious
from
the
Olympic
Games
by
imposing
huge
tax
burdens
on
the
medals
and
prizes
earned.
I
was
an
original
cosponsor
on
a
bill
to
end
those
punitive
policies.
You

more
about
my
efforts

Around
South
Carolina
This
past
week,
I
have
had
the
opportunity
to
travel
in
South
Carolina
to
continue
my
goal
of
listening
to
constituents
from
all
across
the
state.
I
spoke
with
the
congregation
at
the
North
Hills
Community
Church
in
Taylors
and
had
lunch
with
industry
leaders
in
our
tourism
sector
at
the
South
Carolina
Restaurant
and
Lodging
Association
in
Columbia.
I
shared
ideas
and
information
with
small
business
owners
and
community
leaders
over
dinner
at
the
Fountain
Inn
Chamber
of
Commerce’s
Annual
Banquet
and
hosted
a
roundtable
with
students,
faculty,
and
school
administration
of
South
Carolina
State
University.
Throughout,
I
have
heard
inspiring
stories
of
hardworking
South
Carolinians,
and
been
honored
to
represent
every
one
of
them.
Speaking
at
the
Fountain
Inn
Chamber
of
Commerce
Annual
Banquet
I
hope
you
and
your
families
have
been
safe
and
warm
through
the
continuing
winter
weather.
I
am
grateful
for
the
opportunity
to
represent
the
citizens
of
South
Carolina
in
the
United
States
Senate,
and
value
your
thoughts
and
ideas.
Please
don’t
hesitate
to
reach
out
to
my
office
if
we
can
ever
be
of
service
to
you.
Sincerely,
Tim
Scott |
