Note to 2020 Georgia State Legislature: Do the right thing:
Support SB 112
End the financial burden on schools that the 2009 legislature put on schools.
UPDATE: HB 1031 was put into a subcommittee by pressure from those who think our tax money should be used to help finance a private project. Consider: If Georgia Power does not get our tax money to help finance their Vogtle Vortex, then [...horror...shock...] they might need to borrow the money or issue stock or bonds to get it.
