Later in the session the committee set its calendar under modified or structured rules for several bills. The panel placed Senate Bill 68 on the calendar under a structured rule after a voice vote in which opposition was noted; the chair announced “the ayes have it.” The committee also placed Senate Bill 153 and Senate Bill 252 on the calendar under modified structure after motions and seconds.

Committee members presented and briefly described a range of bills during the hearing. Sponsors outlined measures including:

- A change to the Fulton County development authority rules so cities could create their own development authorities (presented early in the session).
- Senate Bill 96, described as a government cleanup bill to reduce inactive or duplicative boards.
- Senate Bill 44, addressing school millage floors and allowing local school systems additional flexibility.
- Senate Bill 13, which would allow the Georgia Infrastructure Financing Authority (GIFA) to include natural gas projects; one question clarified that GIFA assistance would be structured as loans rather than grants.
- Senate Bill 260, to transfer Central State Hospital campus responsibilities to the Department of Community Affairs and reduce the redevelopment authority’s voting membership; the sponsor said the campus covers about 2,000 acres and includes more than 100 vacant buildings.

Several presenters asked for favorable consideration or described technical fixes to state code; the committee chair moved on to set the calendar and then adjourned.

The session recorded only voice votes and procedural moves for the calendar items and the recommit motion; no roll‑call tallies were provided on the transcript.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Georgia House of Representatives 03.20.25 Rules","oneSentenceSummary","The committee heard many bills on topics from infrastructure loans to redevelopment and set the calendar under structure for several measures; it also voted to recommit SB 151 to the Intergovernmental Coordination Committee.","taxTitle","2025 Legislature Georgia , Georgia","taxId",77688,"location","Georgia","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6118868,"Sen.

Hodges, a sponsor of Senate Bill 131, told the committee the bill would establish a statewide health‑care website listing providers by age, language proficiency, gender, practice location and license type to aid planners and consumers.

The measure, Hodges said, would publish month and year of birth, city, county and ZIP code but “no personal information.” He said the intent is to help identify geographic shortages of particular types of health‑care providers so planners “don’t have health‑care deserts.”

Committee members pressed Hodges on privacy risks in sparsely populated counties. A committee member said that when a county is small, combining age, gender and specialty can effectively single out an individual provider. “Some of the information, while the center’s intent is … not to have personal information, some of the counties are small and using age and several of the classifications might actually provide for personal identifying information,” the committee member said.

Hodges responded that it is not the bill’s intent to identify individuals and that the Georgia Board of Healthcare Workforce needs uniform data from all counties to do workforce planning. He said planners require comparable information across large and small counties to spot provider shortages.

Chairman Hawkins voiced support for the bill’s consumer element, saying patients often look at a provider’s age or prefer a provider of a particular gender. “This helps the patients select the provider that they really wanted. So I think it’s a good bill,” Hawkins said.

No formal vote was recorded on SB 131 during the session. Committee members asked questions and expressed both privacy concerns and support for the planning benefits; Hodges said he would address those concerns as the bill moves forward.

The committee’s discussion occurred during its agenda hearing on multiple bills; SB 131 drew extended questioning on the balance between workforce planning data and potential identifiability in small counties.","Sen.
