  • 2020 Legislative Wrapup
    2020 Legislative Summary Includes bills of interest in the 2020 session and bills that were held over from the 2019 legislative session. The 2020 Legislative Session ran from Monday, Jan. 14th – Friday, Jun. 26th. The last quarter of the 2020 legislative session was truly a 'new era' under the Gold Dome. While legislators came to just two weeks ago, a sense of uncertainty for legislators and lobbyists alike filled the halls. The fiscal year 2021 budget, hate crimes legislation, multiple tax increase efforts, PBM reform, and copious amendments were the talk of the week. As committees kicked off, more amendments were being proposed and added to moving bills to address ‘priority issues’ before legislators headed home for the remainder of 2020. The following notable bills that were passed in the respective chambers are set to land on the Governor's desk. Failed bills are effectively dead and would have to be reintroduced next year. Each bill must be adopted in identical form by each chamber. Like the budget, most new laws take effect on July 1 unless another date is specified in the bill itself. The Governor has forty days following the legislative session to veto entire bills or line items in the budget. Hate Crimes HB 426 by Rep. Chuck Efstration was introduced to the Georgia General Assembly in March of 2019. Following the killing of Ahmaud Arbery, as well as recent nationwide protests against racial injustice and police brutality the legislation moved quickly through both the Senate and House Chambers on Legislative Day 37. Gov. Brian Kemp on Friday, signed the legislation allowing additional penalties to be imposed for crimes motivated by a victim’s race, religion, sexual orientation, or other factors, removing Georgia from the dwindling list of U.S.

  • 2018-Mid-Year-Political-Contributions
    1 Verizon Political Activity January – June 2018 A Message from Craig Silliman Verizon is affected by a wide variety of government policies -- from telecommunications regulation to taxation to health care and more -- that have an enormous impact on the business climate in which we operate. We owe it to our shareowners, employees and customers to advocate public policies that will enable us to compete fairly and freely in the marketplace. Political contributions are one way we support the democratic electoral process and participate in the policy dialogue. Our employees have established political action committees at the federal level and in 18 states. These political action committees (PACs) allow employees to pool their resources to support candidates for office who generally support the public policies our employees advocate. This report lists all PAC contributions, corporate political contributions, support for ballot initiatives and independent expenditures made by Verizon and its affiliates during the first half of 2018. The contribution process is overseen by the Corporate Governance and Policy Committee of our Board of Directors, which receives a comprehensive report and briefing on these activities at least annually. We intend to update this voluntary disclosure twice a year and publish it on our corporate website. We believe this transparency with respect to our political spending is in keeping with our commitment to good corporate governance and a further sign of our responsiveness to the interests of our shareowners. Craig L. Silliman Executive Vice President, Public Policy and General Counsel 2 Verizon Political Activity January – June 2018 Political Contributions Policy: Our Voice in the Democratic Process What are the Verizon Political Action Committees? regulations govern many aspects of the contributions process including the setting of monetary contribution limitations and The Verizon Political Action Committees (PACs) exist to help the establishment of periodic reporting requirements.

    FEB 27: Stop Gerrymandering Now! - Atlanta, GA Mon Feb 27th 4:00pm - 8:00pm AtlantaGAGeorgiaVoting 18 Capitol Square SW, Atlanta, GA 30334, USA map Sen Elena Parent and 5 other Senators have sponsored Resolutions S.R. 6 and S.R. 7, calling for an amendment to the Georgia Constitution creating an independent bipartisan commission to draw voting districts. The hearing for these resolutions will be at the last minute before crossover day, on Monday Feb 27 at 4 pm in room 307 of the Coverdell Legislative Office Building. We need to show up at the meeting and demand a vote that day. Our votes matter! We demand fair and equal representation! Partisan legislatures have been violating federal mandate for decades, by drawing voting district boundaries to favor the party in power. It’s called Gerrymandering. Gerrymandering undermines fair representation and competitive elections. Gerrymandered districts cheat voters by making some votes count more than others. It’s not hard to see that partisan legislators have a vested interested in the outcome. The good news is Sen Elena Parent and 5 other Senators have sponsored Resolutions S.R. 6 and S.R. 7, which call for an amendment to the Georgia Constitution creating an independent bipartisan commission to draw voting districts instead of the General Assembly. Georgia would join 6 other forward-looking states if it adopted the independent commission approach to redistricting. More good news is that Senator Ben Watson of the Reapportionment and Redistricting Committee has agreed to hold a hearing on the resolutions. But, the hearing is at the 11 th hour before Crossover Day, when bills in each house must crossover to the other house for consideration.

  • Sine Die 2016
    Georgia Bio Legislative Watch SineDie 2016 Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough LLP The General Assembly has adjourned "Sine Die". In keeping with tradition, lawmakers saved their lengthiest calendar of bills for the final day of the session. They went passed the previously- assumed "midnight deadline" and adjourned closer to 12:30 am. Legislators now rush back to tend to their campaigns in their home districts. While most passed legislation is still 'pending', Governor Deal sent a strong message to Georgia's faith and business communities by vetoing HB 757, the "Free Exercise Protection Act" on Monday. Numerous legislators are calling for an override of the Governor's veto, which would require a 3/5 majority in both chambers to call them back into session. Such an action is supposed to only be used to address a State emergency. We will monitor and notify you if this gains any traction. 2016 Study Committees: Legislators passed numerous resolutions creating study committees. These committees will meet throughout the rest of year and will prepare a final report to be used during in 2017. We will be monitoring and reporting a number of these study committees. House Study Committees • HR 978, by Rep. Wendell Willard (R-Sandy Springs) creates the House Special Study Committee on Judicial Qualifications Commission Reform. • HR 979, by Rep. Penny Houston (R-Nashville) creates the House Study Committee on Programs that Provide Services for the Reading to the Blind and the Visually Impaired. • HR 1093, by Rep. Kimberly Alexander (D-Hiram) creates the House Study Committee on Mental Illness Initiative, Reform, Public Health, and Safety.
