Washington
–
A
study
released
by
the
independent
tax
policy
research
organization
The
Tax
Foundation
shows
that
the
current
Senate
Tax
Reform
legislation
will
lead
to
the
creation
of
13,000
jobs
in
South
Carolina,
while
also
raising
the
after-tax
income
for
middle
class
South
Carolina
families
by
nearly
$2,400.
As
U.S.
Senator
Tim
Scott
(R-SC)
said
on
the
Senate
floor,
“Tax
reform
is
about
everyday
Americans
being
able
to
keep
more
of
their
hard-earned
money.
Tax
reform
is
about
families
like
the
one
I
grew
up
in--single-parent
households,
working
paycheck
to
paycheck,
year
in
and
year
out,
praying
and
hoping
for
something
good
to
happen.
[The
Senate
bill]
is
good
news
for
those
single
moms
and
single
dads
out
there.
It's
also
good
news
for
the
working
class
families,
dual-income,
making
around
$75,000
a
year,
working
every
day,
trying
to
make
sure
they
have
a
little
left
over
for
dinner
out.
We
want
to
say
to
those
folks
who
haven't
really
had
a
raise
in
a
decade,
we
hear
you….
We
want
to
deliver
to
our
American
family
the
opportunity
to
see
more
money
in
each
paycheck.”

Scott’s
