The 2014 Legislative Session has flown by at a rapid pace. In the opening days of March, the Georgia General Assembly reached Day 30, otherwise known as “Crossover Day.” Procedurally, if a bill hasn’t passed through either the House or the Senate by Day 30, it must be re-introduced the following legislative year.On Crossover Day, the General Assembly was in session until close to 6:30 p.m. as we worked to consider 27 pieces of legislation that were placed on the Senate calendar.

Volunteering in our community to serve others is a passion of mine. It is an honor and privilege to use my God-given talents for the sake of others. North Fulton and Cherokee are full of great communities and the opportunities to get involved are abundant. I serve on dozens of charitable organizations and boards, and find an intense joy making a positive difference.
