Now, therefore,Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:That the members of the General Assembly, by this resolution, memorialize the Governor and State Secretary of Commerce to intensify efforts to create jobs and foster economic development in rural areas of South Carolina that face chronic levels of high unemployment.Be it further resolved that copies of this resolution be forwarded to the Honorable Nikki R. Haley, Governor of South Carolina, and to the Honorable Robert M. Hitt III, Secretary of Commerce.XX ................
