Bill
H 3782
SC House H.3782 grants an internal scheduling exemption: House staff need not work on Good Friday (Apr 18, 2025) or Easter Monday (Apr 21, 2025).
Status and sponsor
- Bill type: House Resolution (H. 3782)
- Primary sponsor: Representative Bannister
- Introduced and adopted by the South Carolina House on January 28, 2025
Purpose and intent
- The resolution directs that staff serving members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are not required to work on two specific days in 2025: Good Friday (April 18, 2025) and Easter Monday (April 21, 2025). The intent is to provide a short, formal scheduling exemption for House staff on those dates.
Key provisions
- Declares that House staff are not required to work on:
- Good Friday — April 18, 2025
- Easter Monday — April 21, 2025
- No additional operational or statutory changes are included (the text is limited to acknowledging that staff are not required to work on those dates).
Who is affected
- Directly affected: staff serving members of the South Carolina House of Representatives (i.e., House employees who support legislators).
- Not affected: the general public, state agencies outside the House, or statutory private-sector employee obligations. The resolution does not amend state law or create a state holiday.
Procedural/timeline notes
- Introduced and adopted by the House on the same day (January 28, 2025). As a House resolution governing internal scheduling, its adoption implements the provision immediately for the specified 2025 dates. No further legislative action is required for House operations.
Scope and likely impacts
- Operational: House offices may be closed or operate with reduced staffing on the two specified dates; members’ offices will determine coverage consistent with the resolution.
- Fiscal: The resolution contains no explicit pay, leave, or compensation language; it does not on its face change payroll, leave accruals, or benefits. Any pay/leave implications would depend on House administrative policies or subsequent directions.
- Legal/policy: The resolution is an internal House action and does not create a statewide public holiday or modify existing statutes.
Note on included materials
- The document package provided also contained unrelated text from a different legislative measure (a Massachusetts bill concerning veteran motor-vehicle registration plate fees). That Massachusetts text is not part of South Carolina H. 3782 and is unrelated to this House Resolution.
