House Insurance Committee Property and Casualty Subcommittee
Chairman Steve Tarvin (R-Chickamauga) and members of the Property and Casualty Subcommittee took action on some legislation this morning:
HB 241, authored by Representative Matthew Gambill (R-Cartersville), seeks to amend O.C.G.A. 33-7-6, relating to property insurance, contract requirements, rules and regulations, and exemptions, so as to revise the meaning of property insurance and also to change the parameters under which certain contracts, agreements, or instruments may be canceled. The legislation attempts to streamline service contracts like statutes are done in 49 other states and the District of Columbia and provide for the opportunity for cancellation of those contract with a refund permitted to unused premiums. The legislation received a DO PASS recommendation, moving the bill to the House Rules Committee.
Chris Lugo, executive director of Out Georgia Business Alliance
Out Georgia Business Alliance launched a new capital campaign this month to give back to LGBTQ people in need. The announcement came with news of a new partnership, the search for an advisory committee, and a six-figure goal.
Once funded, the Out Georgia Impact Fund will offer grants that help LGBTQ causes in “meaningful, measurable and lasting” ways, said Chris Lugo, executive director of Out Georgia.
You may know the local business networking group for its happy hour fetes, business summit, its most influential LGBTQ Georgians list and an annual awards gala. But doing good in the gayborhood is right in line with the group’s philosophy as well, Lugo said.
