South Carolina has some of the lowest gas prices in the nation, however, keeping the prices low at the expense of the schools in South Carolina is not a win-win situation. We implore you to reconsider you decision to drop the gas tax and take money out of the general fund to fund transportation needs. Please put EDUCATION FIRST.
