It’s hard to believe that we are wrapping up our second week of the 2015 Georgia Legislative Session. Our first week was mainly spent on organizational matters and getting committee assignments and legislation in place. Obviously, our most important piece of legislation is the budget, and since I serve on the Appropriations Committee, my next week was in appropriations hearings, even though the full House was not in session. As we work through the budget and get it finalized, I’ll be bringing you regular updates.

Before the session started, I had the pleasure of talking with Dr. Judy Taylor, president of the Habersham County Chamber of Commerce, about what I expected to see in this year’s legislative session, and my new role as one of Governor Deals’ floor leaders. I hope you’ll take time to view the video, and if you have questions or comments let me know.

As always, my main priority is the people of this district. You honor and humble me by allowing me to represent you.

If you have a problem, questions, or just want to voice an opinion, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. I can be reached in Atlanta at 404-656-0177 or by email at [email protected].

Once again, thank you for allowing me to be your voice at the Capitol.
