The Georgia General Assembly conducted efficient business at the Gold Dome this year, wrapping up the 2014 Legislative Session in mid-March. I am proud to highlight the following bills that passed during the 2014 session, many of which have already been signed into law by Governor Nathan Deal.
The 2014 Legislative Session of the Georgia General Assembly adjourned at midnight on March 20. It was a moment of celebration that closed months of hard work at the State Capitol.
The last day of the legislative session, on Day 40, is also known as Sine Die. On Sine Die, the House and Senate remain in their respective chambers to deliberate and vote on important pieces of legislation until midnight.
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.
to your business!
