Crossover Day Updates

The State Senate passed what appears to be a toothless ethics bill to force members of the General Assembly to file (but not necessarily pay) their taxes.  It was sponsored by both Robert Brown and Eric Johnson, and passed unanimously.

 

The State House passed a bill to prohibit drivers under the age of 18 from using cell phones while driving.

 

The Senate temporarily tabled that ridiculously confusing stem cell research bill.

 

The House passed a bill to exempt from sales tax any goods and materials to be used to build a civil rights museum in Atlanta.
