Page 8 — Wednesday, March 25, 2009, The Millen News Powell from page 4 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.
