South Carolina Senate Approves $115 Million in Tax Breaks for Panthers
Friday, May 10th, 2019
The Panthers got their first win of the season, getting somebody to give them money for something they planned to do anyway.
According to Avery Wilks and Maayan Schechter of The State newspaper, the South Carolina Senate approved $115 million in tax breaks for the Panthers to build a practice facility south of the border.
The tax discounts package passed 27-15 Thursday, after days of debate about providing a free lunch of multi-billionaire owner David Tepper.
The bill needs final approval by the South Carolina House, but they approved their version of the bill in March. See more at NBC.
