lation to pass the Senate and
still be considered by the
House this year, and vice versa.
Some of the measures re
ceiving Senate approval this
week were: SB 17, which
would provide the joint Legis
lative Ethics Committee with
the names of state lawmakers
who have not paid their taxes.
The panel could then move to
sanction the legislator; SB 67,
which would require driver’s
license examinations in Geor
gia to be administered in En
glish only; SB 82, which ad
dresses the growing problem of
metal theft in our state; SB 114,
which would assist military
families by easing the transi
tion for their children in trans
ferring from one school to an
other due to their parents’ re
assignment; SB 155, which I
co-sponsored and would re
move buffer zones from
streams carrying mostly rain
water; SB 160, which I co
sponsored and would require
school systems to observe Nov.
Burns from page 4
House on Thursday. The Jobs,
Opportunity, and Business Suc
cess Act of 2009 (HB 481),
passed by a vote of 164 to
4. Both of these bills make
changes to the tax code while
both promoting and encourag
ing businesses and employ
ment in Georgia. HB 481
would provide a $2,400 credit
to businesses that keep people
employed for at least two years,
gives a $500 credit per em
ployee to employers for hiring
people that are unemployed
and receive unemployment
benefits, and eliminates state
sales tax deposits. HB 482
passed unanimously. This bill
would provide an exemption
on all business inventories
from the state’s 0.25 mil ad
valorem tax. This is subject to
the approval of voters on the
2010 ballot. In Georgia, creat
ing jobs and increasing busi
ness are essential during eco
nomic times like we are in and
these tax proposals help to ac
complish both of those needs.
House Bill 261 creates a six
month window during which
anyone purchasing one single
family residence will receive a
tax credit of up to $3,600. This
short tax window will immedi
ately improve Georgia’s real
estate market by creating an in-
