Legislature Shows Independence From Administration Domination
The Macon Telegraph reports that both houses show signs of independence from executive control as they debate budget cuts and staffing. The senate backs drastic salary reductions and staff limits, while the house forms a five member panel to survey salaries and departments, aiming to curb expenses without touching core constitutional salaries. The outcome remains uncertain as politicians weigh economy against ongoing departmental needs.
