More great news out of the Statehouse!

The Small Business Tax Cut of 2026 has passed the Senate and is now just a few steps away from delivering much-needed relief to South Carolina’s small business community.

We look forward to continuing to work with legislators to get this bill across the finish line!

More good news today for the business community… the Senate Judiciary Committee passed the Small Business Regulatory Freedom Act (H.3021) with smart, balanced reforms that reduce regulatory burdens, protect certainty, and ensure costly new rules get legislative approval.

[Will Frierson @WiLLFiAM11]

👇 Big win for our small businesses today. Let’s get this across the finish line!

[SCMC @SCManufacturers]

We’ve got great news from the Statehouse. The Senate Finance Committee has passed H. 5006, the Small Business Tax Cut of 2026! This is a big step toward providing real relief for our small businesses.

And with Small Business Day on Thursday, the timing couldn’t be better! There’s still time to register: https://t.co/axnupZUK6F

👏 Big day in the House for South Carolina small businesses! 👀 Read the letter below to see the overwhelming support from Chambers of Commerce across our state for H.5006 — the Small Business Tax Cut of 2026.

@SCHouseGOP is ready to deliver REAL tax relief for the small businesses who employ our neighbors, power our communities, and drive South Carolina’s economy forward. 🇺🇸

💵On our way to providing REAL
RELIEF for small businesses in South Carolina. @BrandonNewton7’s bill would exempt the first $10,000 of business personal property taxes, easing the tax burden on families and small businesses and setting up our state for future success!

Small businesses showed up to be heard.

SCMC members KRJ Consulting, Snelling Staffing Services, and TRC Talent Solutions testified this morning in support of H.5006—the State of S.C. Small Business Tax Cut of 2026.

Lower taxes. Stronger small businesses. A more competitive South Carolina.

Honored to join @SCManufacturers inaugural event last night at Business Speaks to talk about our shared priorities and South Carolina’s strong economic momentum. When businesses succeed, our state succeeds, and our commitment to continue working together to keep our state growing is stronger than ever!

[SCMC @SCManufacturers]

Thank you to Senate and House leadership for joining SCMC’s Business Speaks and sharing their priorities for the 2026 legislative session.

[Will Frierson @WiLLFiAM11]

Day 2 of the legislative session, and progress is already underway. A Senate Finance Committee subcommittee advanced historic income tax reform this morning, a key step toward a more competitive South Carolina for jobs and investment.

Let’s keep the momentum going!
