Gold Dome Report 2019 Georgia Legislative Session Gold Dome Report 2019 Georgia Legislative Session June 2019 NELSON MULLINS RILEY & SCARBOROUGH LLP ATTORNEYS AND COUNSELORS AT LAW Atlantic Station 201 17th Street, NW | Suite 1700 Atlanta, GA 30363 T 404.322.6000 F 404.322.6050 nelsonmullins.com i Gold Dome Report 2019 Georgia Legislative Session We are pleased to present the Nelson Mullins Gold Dome Report for the 2019 Session of the Georgia General Assembly. We appreciate the privilege of representing our clients and wish to accumulate in some detail the key pieces of legislation that were passed or considered and in which our clients and our lobbying team are actively involved. This report is organized by subject matter, such as health or education, with subtopics where helpful and appropriate. 2019 was a transition year with new statewide constitutional officers and numerous new legislators elected in 2018. In terms of the big picture, the passage of a $3000 pay raise for all certified teachers and educators in public schools, certificate of need legislation, and the passage of an abortion bill stand out. The agricultural growth of hemp was authorized and a limited production of THC oil was also permitted. The efforts of our lobbying team, in particular Helen Sloat and George Ray, were crucial for several of our education clients in extending the teacher pay raise to all certified professionals in public schools, including counselors, social workers, and psychologists. In the certificate of need wars, the hospital side succeeded in keeping CON largely intact. Highlights of the detailed summaries in this report include: Health and Mental Health: • Authorization for the Governor to design and present to the federal government two waivers to serve the Medicaid expansion population. • Passage of new interstate compacts for psychologists, physicians, and physical therapists, and revision to the nurse compact already passed, all of which aim to increase the health care workforces in communities where the supply of health professionals is absent or very small. • Revisions to procedures under the certificate of need laws, but with retention of the facilities and events currently in existence and regulated by the Department. • New funding for community mental health services, noticeably expansion of the APEX Program for wraparound services for school age kids with intense mental health or emotional issues. Interest in child and adolescent services continues at a high level, as the suicide rates continue to rise for this and other population groups. • Establishment of the Georgia Mental Health Reform and Innovation Commission. i Education: • A $3000 increase in the state salary schedule for teachers and other certified school personnel. • The defeat of school voucher expansion efforts. • Additional focus on children identified with dyslexia and providing assistive services. • New funds for school counselors in Title I high schools and wraparound services provided by Communities in Schools. • $30,000 per public school for school safety improvements. Child Welfare: • Authorization of planning and funding for the new federal Family First Prevention Services Act that encourages community-based services to reduce the number of children and adolescents who are placed in the custody of the state’s congregate and foster care systems. • Amendments to the Child Abuse Protection Act and its child abuse registry, affording additional procedural rights to victims and persons accused of violations. • Additional funding for out of home care and for the schools in education programs for kids in residential programs. Other: • New restrictions on when an abortion is permitted, namely prior to the detection of a heartbeat in the fetus with some exceptions. • Permission for commercial growth of hemp. • Establishment of a new commission on medical marijuana, specifically Low THC Oil, that will establish a licensing system for its manufacture and sale. • Increased protections for human tracking victims and penalties for offenders. • Continued efforts to increase broadband coverage throughout the state to help rural areas attract better education, healthcare, and investment. In terms of the political climate in the 2019 Session, new Governor Brian Kemp and Lieutenant Governor Geoff Duncan were sorting out their new staff teams. The Democrats got a larger minority in the House, winning a net 12 seats. The swing of independent women away from Trump "principles" caused this result. The House Republican majority is 105-75, and in the Senate the Republicans continue to dominate with a 35-21 majority. As each party shifts in the composition of its subgroups, particularly around value issues, the change in the size of the Republican majorities becomes more interesting. At the legislative level, next year’s 2020 election results for ii state House and Senate seats are likely to affect reapportionment decisions that follow the 2020 Census. Some Republican leaders interpreted the 2016 election results as necessitating efforts to win back women voters in the north Atlanta suburbs. This view drove the passage of the Medicaid expansion waivers on the theory that women often make health care decisions. There was also a good bit more health legislation than normal, as you will see in this Report. These efforts were caused at least in part, ironically, by Stacey Abrams’s broadcasting support for Medicaid expansion. Governor Kemp and Lt. Governor Duncan pushed for a vote on the abortion bills to promote Republican value issues. There was a new private school voucher bill as well that the public school systems opposed and defeated, but the debate is likely to renew in the 2020 Legislative Session. There were no religious freedom or immigration bills in 2019, but Georgia may be in for a showdown on economic development issues, if other value bills are pushed by the Governor or Lt. Governor in 2020. So the parties tack left, then tack right. Both parties seek their true base. American and Georgia politics are likely to continue to realign in 2020. Enjoy and savor the question, "Who is Georgia?" Please call on us if we can help you on any state governmental issue or insight. Stanley S. Jones, Jr. George S.

  • Presession Report 2019
    PRESESSION REPORT 2019 PRE-FILED LEGISLATION • House http://www.legis.ga.gov/Legislation/en-US/Prefiles.aspx?Chamber=2 • Senate http://www.legis.ga.gov/Legislation/en-US/Prefiles.aspx?Chamber=1 There were 28 pre-filed pieces of legislation for 2019. While some were on the lighter side – such as naming the judicial center after Governor Nathan Deal and commending the Atlanta Braves 2018 season – some notables include the following: HB 2 – (Rep. Matt Gurtler) Allows certain Georgians to carry a firearm without a permit. HB 8 – (Rep. Debbie Buckner) Exempts certain women’s hygiene products from state sales tax. HR 2 – (Rep. Scot Turner) Prohibits the use of a poll tax in Georgia. HR 6 – (Rep. Michael Caldwell) Provides for term limits for state elected officials. SB 2 – (Sen. Steve Gooch) Allows for EMCs to partner with internet companies to provide broadband service to members. HOT BUTTON ISSUES FOR 2019 Education Throughout the campaign, Governor Kemp presented education as one of his top priorities. Included in this is teacher compensation and a priority on mental health counselors in schools as well as school security. We will also continue to watch and see how the state proceeds with the implementation of the testing pilot program passed in 2018. One complication in education policy in 2019 is a void in leadership in each Chamber. With the retirement of Brooks Coleman in the House and Senator Lindsey Tippins resigning his chairmanship, both committees are currently without a leader. We expect the new chairs to be announced any day now. Rural Georgia Throughout the 2018 Legislative Session and the 2018 Campaign season, we saw a recurring theme in that legislators see the need for reforms that aid rural Georgia.

    House of Representatives JON BURNS MAJORITY LEADER ROOM 338, STATE CAPITOL ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30334 December 4, 2020 SENT VIA EMAIL: Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger Chairperson of the State Election Board Mrs. Rebecca N. Sullivan Vice-Chairperson of the State Election Board Dear Secretary Raffensperger and Mrs. Sullivan, As I am sure you have seen over the past month, many Georgians, including my colleagues who have signed this correspondence, have serious concerns about Georgia’s elections. As we approach a critical election on January 5, 2021, it is clear that Georgia voters must have confidence in the election process going forward. To that end, below you will find two common-sense suggestions: a rule that should be promulgated by the State Election Board (the “SEB”) and additional resources of which the Office of the Secretary of State (the “SOS”) or the SEB could take advantage. I. Absentee Ballot Application and Mail-In Absentee Ballot Signature Review Process. As the process currently stands, when a voter wishes to vote early by mail, they submit an Absentee Ballot Application (“Application”) either through the mail or online. When a local Board of Registrars (the “BOR”) receives a paper Application, typically, a single employee of the BOR is responsible for the initial review of a signature on a paper Application. If that paper Application is accepted, the BOR mails an Absentee Ballot to the voter. The process for reviewing signatures on the external envelope of a returned Absentee Ballot is the same – a single employee of the BOR is allowed to “approve” a signature without oversight by other employees or independent observers.

    December 12, 2018 Michael R. Pompeo U.S. Department of State 2201 C Street NW Washington, DC 20520 Dear Secretary Pompeo: We write to express our deep concern about the potential deportation of thousands of Vietnamese refugees under pressure from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to change the terms of the current repatriation agreement between Vietnam and the United States.1 This longstanding agreement, which was signed by the U.S. and Vietnamese governments in 2008 under President George W. Bush, does not provide for the deportation of any Vietnamese citizens who arrived in the United States before July 12, 1995. [Article 2, Para. 2] Even for those who came to the U.S. after July 12, 1995, the agreement promises to “take into account the humanitarian aspect, family unity and circumstances” of each person being considered for repatriation and to carry out repatriation “in an orderly and safe way, and with respect for the individual human dignity of the person repatriated.” [Article I, Para. 1,3] The terms of this agreement recognize the complex history between the two countries and the dire circumstances under which hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese fled to the U.S. to seek refuge from political persecution in the aftermath of the Vietnam War. Many of those who fled were South Vietnamese who had fought alongside or otherwise supported the U.S. government during the war. Upon their arrival into the U.S., Vietnamese refugees, many of them young children or teenagers, were resettled in struggling neighborhoods without support or resources to cope with significant trauma from the war.

  • Rural GA Republicans Split on Private School Voucher Bill
    Rural GA Republicans Split on Private School Voucher Bill March 10, 2019 Jessica Szilagyi Rural Georgia lawmakers divided the delegation last week as they took up a measure that would redirect state tax dollar vouchers for private schools. Senate Bill 173 proposes the creation of a ‘scholarship’ account to allow parents to direct the average amount of $5,500 in state money that currently goes to public schools on a per student basis to a private school instead. It would also allow the flexibility of using the money for “other educational costs” like textbooks or tutoring as well. The idea has long been held by Republicans as a ‘free market approach’ to education, supported by the Georgia Center for Opportunity and Americans for Prosperity, but public school supporters, the Professional Association of Georgia Educators, and similar organizations have said it would leave public schools with limited funds and create a divide amongst student types. Democrats argue the idea is a subsidy for private school attendees while conservatives say their tax allocation should ‘go with the child.’ Senator Greg Dolezal said of the scholarships during debate last week: “They allow the state funding to follow the child into a variety of optional educational experiences, such as homeschooling, hybrid schooling, online schooling, virtual schooling, private schooling, home tutoring, et cetera,” while Senator John Albers said, “The state has no money,” he said. “They have the people’s money, which they forcibly take from them through taxes. So, the same people’s money who may want to have a different option for their child…I would hope we would never stand in front of the student and the people who fund that.” Both are metro area Republicans.
