The University of Georgia Student Government Association held its first Senate meeting of the 34th administration this Tuesday. During the meeting, senators passed a bill to modify the SGAâs legislative branch statutes and confirm new legislative cabinet and rules committee members.
According to the bill, the purpose of the legislation is to remove definitions that hindered the President of the Senate and the Senate to effectively legislate.
The call to modify the language of the statutes is a reverse on a bill passed by the 33rd administration, which initially put these definitions in place. The 33rd administrationâs bill passed back in March, with its intended goal being to clearly explain the purposes of Senate staff positions and make the legislative branch more effective.
