Sine Die: Overview of Georgia’s 2022 Fiscal Year Budget
Bolstered by billions of dollars in unprecedented support from the federal government, Georgia lawmakers enacted a state budget for Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 (HB 81) that maintains nearly $850 million in cuts from FY 2020 levels (HB 31), a reduction equivalent to cutting approximately 4 percent of General Funds from the budget.

Japan’s Diet unanimously adopted the New worker co-op legislation which could pave the way for a new wave of co-ops in the country. The new legislation adopted on 4 December, means businesses can now register as worker co-operatives.

Apex bodies Japan Cooperative Alliance (JCA) and Japan Workers’ Cooperative Union (JWCU) had long been campaigning for legislative changes to enable the sector to grow.
“Today, we live in the midst of unease and confusion to which no end is in sight, amid the global COVID-19 pandemic,” said Nobuhiro Furumura, chair of JWCU and board member of the International Organisation of Industrial and Service Cooperatives (Cicopa).
