  • The History of Redistricting in Georgia
    GEORGIA LAW REVIEW(DO NOT DELETE) 11/6/2018 8:33 PM THE HISTORY OF REDISTRICTING IN GEORGIA Charles S. Bullock III* In his memoirs, Chief Justice Earl Warren singled out the redistricting cases as the most significant decisions of his tenure on the Court.1 A review of the changes redistricting introduced in Georgia supports Warren’s assessment. Not only have the obligations to equalize populations across districts and to do so in a racially fair manner transformed the makeup of the state’s collegial bodies, Georgia has provided the setting for multiple cases that have defined the requirements to be met when designing districts. Other than the very first adjustments that occurred in the 1960s, changes in Georgia plans had to secure approval from the federal government pursuant to the Voting Rights Act. Also, the first four decades of the Redistricting Revolution occurred with a Democratic legislature and governor in place. Not surprisingly, the partisans in control of redistricting sought to protect their own and as that became difficult they employed more extreme measures. When in the minority, Republicans had no chance to enact plans on their own. Beginning in the 1980s and peaking a decade later, Republicans joined forces with black Democrats to devise alternatives to the proposals of white Democrats. The biracial, bipartisan coalition never had sufficient numbers to enact its ideas. After striking out in the legislature, African-Americans appealed to the U.S. Attorney General alleging that the plans enacted were less favorable to black interests than alternatives * Charles S. Bullock, III is a University Professor of Public and International Affairs at the University of Georgia where he holds the Richard B.

  • On a Day I Accepted an Invitation from the Cobb
    dick yarbrough.com July 26, 2010 AN IN-DEPTH LOOK AT THE RECENT PRIMARY RESULTS, COURTESY OF JUNIOR E. LEE As promised, I have the latest analysis of the recent primary results, courtesy of Junior E. Lee, general manager of the C. Richard Yarbrough Worldwide Media and Pest Control Company, located over a pool room in Greater Garfield. I almost missed my deadline because I couldn’t get Junior to answer the phone. He was shooting pool with the Bodine brothers, Roy and Leroy, and losing badly. Junior hates to lose, particularly to the Bodine brothers. He wasn’t happy to be interrupted but gave me the information and guaranteed its accuracy within plus-or-minus whatever would get me off the telephone. How did John Oxendine blow a big lead in the Republican gubernatorial primary and not even make the runoff? Junior’s analysis is that nobody in the Republican Party likes Oxendine. One insider told him if the Ox had made the runoff, the number of Republicans standing in line to endorse his opponent would have be so long you’d have thought they were buying one of those IPhone contraptions. Eric Johnson didn’t do so well, either. Junior says that is because he is from Savannah. The only politician from Savannah who ever had any statewide political impact was Gen. James Oglethorpe and when he got here there was nothing around but Savannah, so that doesn’t count. In the Democratic primary, former Gov. Roy Barnes got the nomination without a runoff. Junior says that was due to two factors.

  • Legislative Day 28 Legislative Session Suspended Indefinitely
    Legislative Day 28 Crossover Edition *BREAKING NEWS* Georgia to declare a public health emergency amid coronavirus outbreak. Governor Kemp's declaration tomorrow will constitute Georgia's first ever public health emergency. Per State Law in the applicable Code Section O.C.G.A 38-3-51, the legislature must meet to ratify the Governor's proclamation within 48 hours of the announcement. Click here for more details and stay tuned as more information becomes available. Legislative Session Suspended Indefinitely Crossover Day came and went in a unique way this year under the Gold Dome. Legislators rushed to vote on a multitude of issues yesterday - some of which were the products of months of discussion and others have appeared in only the last few days. It was all about the money in the House, which has finally signed off on its version of the FY 21 Budget, which restores many of the reductions proposed by Governor Kemp while reducing the proposed teacher raises from $2,000 to $1,000. Afterward, the House moved to adopt the comprehensive tax reform measure unveiled by Speaker David Ralston Tuesday that purports to lower the income tax for individuals to 5.375%. Meanwhile, the Senate focused on polarizing policy issues, including tabling a discussion on tort reform by a 27-26 vote, and ultimately dying in the Senate. Amid growing concerns of a wide-spread coronavirus outbreak, the Georgia General Assembly will suspend its 2020 legislative session indefinitely starting after Friday. The House and Senate will reconvene for the 30th Legislative Day at a future date at the discretion of Lt.

  • House of Representatives Study Committee on Maternal Mortality
    House of Representatives Study Committee on Maternal Mortality Final Report Co-Chairman Sharon Cooper Representative, 43rd District Co-Chairman Mark Newton Representative, 123rd District The Honorable Chuck Efstration Representative, 104th District The Honorable Carolyn Hugley Representative, 136th District The Honorable Deborah Silcox Representative, 52nd District The Honorable Valencia Stovall Representative, 74th District The Honorable Darlene Taylor Representative, 173rd District Jane Ellis, MD, PhD Medical Director, Emory Regional Perinatal Center Chad Ray, MD Associate Professor, Medical College of Georgia 2019 Prepared by the House Budget & Research Office Introduction The House Study Committee on Maternal Mortality was created by House Resolution 589 during the 2019 Legislative Session of the Georgia General Assembly. HR 589 acknowledges that women in the United States are more likely to die from childbirth or pregnancy-related causes than women in other high-income countries, and furthermore, Georgia is among the top 10 states with the highest maternal death rate. The resolution also recognizes that maternal deaths are a serious public health concern and have tremendous family and social impacts that affect diverse populations. HR 589 acknowledges that the Georgia Maternal Mortality Review Committee has reviewed three years of maternal death data in the state, and the data suggests that 60 percent of these deaths were preventable. Continued review of maternal deaths is recommended to understand the trends in the data, and there is a need to develop strategies and institute systemic changes to decrease and prevent maternal deaths in Georgia. House Resolution 589 provides for the membership of the committee, consisting of seven members of the House of Representatives, a minimum of two of whom shall be African American female legislators, and two members of the Georgia Maternal Mortality Review Committee appointed by the speaker of the House of Representatives.

  • Memorandum of Law in Support of Changes to Stone Mountain Park
    Memorandum of Law in Support of Changes to Stone Mountain Park To: Whom It May Concern From: Stone Mountain Action Coalition Date: October 15, 2020 During public discourse regarding the legal entanglement between the Confederacy and Stone Mountain Park (the “Park”), some have argued that the Stone Mountain Memorial Association (“SMMA” or the “Board”) is powerless to make changes to the Park, claiming that the Board’s “hands are tied by the law.” To the contrary, the Board has discretion to make changes under current Georgia state law. Indeed, all boards created by law have discretion. Absent discretion, such entities would be powerless to take actions pursuant to their statutory mandates. Here, that discretion is front and center, listed in the code among the three primary purposes of the SMMA: (1) To preserve the natural areas situated within the Stone Mountain Park area; (2) To provide access to Stone Mountain for Georgia's citizens; and (3) To maintain an appropriate and suitable memorial for the Confederacy. See O.C.G.A. § 12-3-192.1 (emphasis added) (the complete “Stone Mountain Memorial Act,” O.C.G.A. § 12-3-190, et seq. is attached as Exhibit “A”). Thus, the General Assembly explicitly granted the Board discretion as to what is an “appropriate and suitable” memorial to the Confederacy. Page 1 of 11 I. THE STONE MOUNTAIN MEMORIAL ASSOCIATION IS PERMITTED UNDER GEORGIA STATE LAW TO MAKE CHANGES TO STONE MOUNTAIN PARK. A. The history of Stone Mountain Park and the SMMA underscores the urgent need to make changes at the Park.
