Lawmakers returned to the Capitol despite the downpour of rain and quickly got down to work for the people of Georgia.

Our team will keep you posted as the budget makes its way through the process. The Committee Substitute on HB 80 is found in this link. The Committee Tracking Report is in this link, showing differences between the Governor and House versions of the proposed FY 2021 Amended Budget.

Governor Brian Kemp today announced his administration’s floor leaders for the upcoming legislative session. Newly-elected District 50 State Senator Bo Hatchett is among them.
Hatchett will serve alongside Senators Clint Dixon (R-Buford) and Russ Goodman (R-Homerville) to advance the governor’s legislative agenda in the State Senate.
Hatchett continues Habersham County’s representation at the floor leader level. District 10 State Representative Terry Rogers (R-Clarkesville) has served as House Floor Leader for the past several years. He chose not to run for re-election. Roger’s term expires at midnight.
