A house RESOLUTION

TO DECLARE WEDNESDAY, APRIL 9, 
2025, AS "STO PROGRAMS DAY" IN South Carolina 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 232,000 
families with more than 6.6 billion dollars 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 three thousand three hundred individuals with disabilities in all 
forty-six 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 thirty-eight million 
dollars last fiscal year and currently has more than nine hundred fifty million 
dollars 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 9, 2025, as "STO Programs Day" in South 
Carolina 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.
