HB 89 saga continues
The Senate voted to disagree with the House’s new version of HB 89. They will now move into conference where three members from each body will try to construct a bill that everyone can live with.
The inside politics were that the vote that took place yesterday was not supposed to happen until early next week, but at the urging of Georgia Carry after the Speaker called the vote, State Rep. Tim Bearden proposed his amendment. Many members were surprised by the amendment due to the threat of the State Senate to kill the bill if any changes were made in the House.
God only knows if the bill will make its way back through.
