Two Questions Before Lower House In Georgia Assembly
A chaotic session opens with the lower house plan to quiet rent on to cars for developments while the upper house faces two main matters. The Judicial committee rejected White of Screven's bill to abolish the prison commission and the penitentiary tax issue dominates. The senate weighs multiple Holder and related substitutes as party caucuses prepare to offer a fifth substitute. The near beer tax fight continues and the session requires three days for any bill to reach a vote. The senate, facing six bills, is unsure how much can pass after the near beer tax is resolved.
