Standing committee removes sunset on SSO credit, announces 7–5 vote
Summary
In standing committee, members voted 7–5 to remove a sunset provision on the SSO credit and noted the credit rose from 120 to 225; the motion passed and the committee returned to the rules calendar.
The Rules Committee’s standing session voted to remove a sunset on the SSO credit when considering House Bill 328 (LC 590427S), a measure sponsors said was aimed at supporting children in rural Georgia.
Committee discussion focused on a narrow change: removing the Finance Committee’s sunset from the SSO credit. Chairman Hofstetler explained the credit “gone up from 120 to 225,” and the sponsor and chair framed the alteration as technical and targeted. Senator Ginn made the motion to advance the bill in standing committee; the whip seconded. The chair called the vote and announced seven members in favor and five opposed; the motion passed.
The committee then gavels out of standing committee and resumed the rules calendar. There were no amendments recorded on the floor during the standing-committee vote, and members moved on to calendar business after the tally was announced.
