Down to the Wire:  Legislative Day 40 Approaching Soon
 
Now that crossover day has passed, we are entering the final days of the 2014 legislative session. The next week and a half will be filled with committee meetings as legislators race to get their bills placed on the House and Senate Rules Calendars (Floor agendas). The final days of this session will take place on March 18 (Day 39) and March 20 (Day 40-Sine Die). Be sure to watch for ACCG Action Alerts, emails and the ACCG website for any updates from the policy staff during these critical days.
 
Please review this week's update and contact your legislators to encourage their support of bills helpful to counties and their opposition of bills that would be harmful to county taxpayers. Please use this weekend to discuss the bills highlighted below and encourage your legislators to consider the counties’ position when voting on particular legislation. Your voice is powerful.
 
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact an ACCG policy staff member.
