COLUMBIA, S.C.- The South Carolina Panthers bill passed in the Senate Thursday after more than two hours of debate between lawmakers.
The proposal would give the team millions in tax breaks if it builds its headquarters and practice fields across the state border.
The bill passed 27 to 15 in favor.
The Senate allowed the bill to pass a second reading on Wednesday with no objection. That usually means approval, but Thursday’s expected third and final reading brought more debate.
