Georgia lawmakers consider biennial sessions bill
Representative Hogan introduced a measure to require the Georgia legislature to meet once every two years. It estimates saving 75 000 dollars each cycle and allows time to fix laws. The record recalls that before 1890 sessions were biennial, with members meeting 40 days after elections and adjourning until summer. In 1888 89 sessions lasted 189 days and 1890 1148 days.
