Bill > S0728

This Concurrent Resolution, a formal expression of opinion or request agreed upon by both houses of the South Carolina General Assembly, asks the Department of Transportation to officially designate a specific section of SC 135, also known as North A Street, in Easley, Pickens County, as "Professor John T. Simpson Memorial Drive." This honor is bestowed upon Professor John T. Simpson in recognition of his significant contributions as an educator, particularly his work in expanding the Easley Colored School and his lasting impact on the African-American community in Pickens County during a time of segregation. The resolution also directs that appropriate signs be erected to mark this memorial designation and that a copy be sent to the Department of Transportation.
