  • 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.

  • 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.
