A house RESOLUTION

TO DECLARE 
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 15, 2026, AS "STO PROGRAMS DAY" IN THE PALMETTO STATE AND TO 
ENCOURAGE INDIVIDUALS, FAMILIES, AND BUSINESSES TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE 
CONSUMER-FACING PROGRAMS OFFERED AT THE STATE TREASURER'S OFFICE.

Whereas, the State 
Treasurer's Office administers multiple programs to benefit the citizens of the 
Palmetto State; and

Whereas, saving for a 
college education is an important investment in a child's future. As student 
loan debt continues to increase, South Carolina's Future Scholar 529 College 
Savings Plan currently serves more than 250,000 families with more than $8 
billion in assets under management; and

Whereas, individuals 
with disabilities and their families who care for them should have access to 
the same kinds of savings tools that are available to the broader population. The 
Palmetto ABLE Savings Program provides over 3,700 individuals with disabilities 
in all 46 counties the opportunity to save for their future without losing 
government benefits; and

Whereas, rightful 
owners of unclaimed property, or their heirs, always have a right to claim 
property held in custody by the State Treasurer's Office. The South Carolina 
Unclaimed Property Program returned over $46 million last fiscal year and 
currently has more than $1 billion in unclaimed funds available for claim. Now, 
therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the 
South Carolina House of Representatives, 
by this resolution, declare Wednesday, April 15, 2026, as "STO Programs Day" in 
the Palmetto State and encourage individuals, families and businesses to learn 
more about the consumer-facing programs offered at the State Treasurer's 
Office.

Be it further resolved 
that a copy of this resolution be presented to the Honorable Curtis M. Loftis 
Jr., Treasurer of the State of South Carolina.
