Georgia House opens session, adopts order of business and adjourns to Jan. 28

The Georgia House of Representatives convened on Jan. 27, 2026, completed roll call and confirmed the journal of the preceding two legislative days, and adopted a resolution establishing the order of business for the day.

Chairman Scott Hilton reported the committee on information and audits "has read the journal of the preceding 2 legislative days and has found them to be correct," and, after the speaker asked for objections to dispensing with the reading, members heard none and the journal was confirmed. The clerk then read a resolution establishing the day's order of business, which the House adopted after no objection.

Later in the day the majority leader moved that "this House stand adjourned until Wednesday, 01/28/2026 at 10:00AM." The motion was decided by voice vote; the speaker declared, "the ayes have it," and the House adjourned.

The day's proceedings were largely procedural: invocation and pledge, ceremonial recognitions, a lengthy reading of bills for first and second reading, and numerous committee scheduling announcements. The House also adopted a set of privileged resolutions honoring individuals and observances. No floor debate on reported bills or final passage votes on substantive legislation were recorded in the transcript of this session.

Formal actions recorded in the session included confirmation of the journal, adoption of the order of business, adoption of privileged resolutions, and the adjournment motion. Several committee meeting notices and constituent recognitions were announced before the House stood adjourned.
