Letter to South Carolina State Legislators


Dear Sirs,

I am writing to request that you work at getting the South Carolina legislature to accept the 2.4 billion dollar loan the Federal Government is willing to extend to the state. I understand the loan will possibly result in future state tax increases; but at this point we can’t afford not to take it.

The Federal government has and is about to spend what might as well be gazillions of dollars to bail out the crooks in Wall Street that put us in this position in the first place; we’ll be paying taxes on that forever, and the least we can do is get a little relief here and now. Please try to override Governor Sanford’s ultra-ideological stance on the issue. His standing on his principles might do his heart some good (assuming he has one), but it’s not helping those of us with our feet in the trenches.

Sincerely,
Katya Cohen (educator)
