[ale] Georgia SB 315 Update (the latest)

[Scott M. Jones via Ale]

SB 315 has passed first and second reading in the House and is now
assigned to the Public Safety and Homeland Security Committee in the
House. I expect it could be in committee as early as Tuesday next week.

No committee meetings will be held tomorrow or Monday due to the holiday.

We will have to check the schedule every day in order to catch it. We
may have to announce the committee meeting with very short notice, maybe
just hours or even (gulp) minutes.

It's a common trick with unpopular legislation to announce the committee
meeting on very short notice and/or move up the time at the last minute
to throw off any opposition. Welcome to Georgia politics. As
opposition we don't control the schedule.

Just heard from a credible source that SB 315 has been moved to the
Judiciary Non-Civil committee.
