Sen. Grooms receives 2007 leadership award

State Sen. Larry Grooms, R-Bonneau, was presented the 2007 Palmetto Leadership Award this week by the S.C. Policy Council.

"Sen. Grooms has been an amazingly effective leader on education reform, property tax relief and transportation restructuring," said Ed McMullen, president of the policy council. "He has positively impacted the lives of all South Carolinians, and for that we recognize him with our highest honor."

The Policy Council is a nonprofit, nonpartisan public policy research organization in Columbia committed to individual liberty, free enterprise and limited government.

Previous recipients include U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia and state Senate President Pro Tempore Glenn McConnell, R-Charleston.

Grooms represents District 37, which includes portions of Berkeley, Charleston, Colleton and Dorchester counties.

Grooms and his wife have three young sons.
