VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
TO COMMEND THE HONORABLE JOSEPH G. MAHAFFEY, OF SPARTANBURG COUNTY, FOR HIS SIX YEARS OF DEDICATED SERVICE AS A MEMBER OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, AND TO WISH HIM MUCH SUCCESS IN ALL HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS.
Whereas, the Honorable Joseph G. Mahaffey, of Spartanburg County, for six years has represented the citizens of House District 36 with diligent care in the South Carolina House of Representatives; and
Whereas, a tax professional for the past thirty-five years, Joe Mahaffey is a legislator with a knowledgeable and real commitment to holding government accountable, eliminating wasteful spending, and reducing taxation; and
Whereas, among his many accomplishments, Representative Mahaffey counts as especially important his work to reduce taxes. First, he co-sponsored legislation that returned four hundred eighty million dollars to taxpayers on their owner-occupied homes. He also worked to eliminate the sales tax on unprepared foods and to reduce the state's income tax, as well as to bring about improvements in our road system through bridge upgrading and additional four-way stops and traffic lights. Restructuring the South Carolina Department of Transportation to improve accountability held a critical place on his agenda, and he was instrumental in the establishment of Spartanburg Community College Western Campus; and
Whereas, a devoted family man, he is the husband of the former Alinda Harriett Wood and father of Joe, Jr., and Susan, three of his staunchest supporters; and
Whereas, we are grateful for Joe Mahaffey's devotion to his constituents and his influence in state government over the past six years, and we wish him much happiness and fulfillment as he begins a new chapter in his career. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, commend the Honorable Joseph G. Mahaffey, of Spartanburg County, for his six years of dedicated service as a member of the House of Representatives, and wish him much success in all his future endeavors.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to our distinguished colleague, the Honorable Joseph G. Mahaffey.
