The Georgia Chamber has officially released its 2021-2022 Legislative Scorecard highlighting how elected officials voted on the business community’s top issues during the most recent legislative biennium.
With hundreds of bills introduced and debated each legislative session, the Georgia Chamber’s legislative team along with its members identify the most impactful issues to businesses throughout the state by designating them as “scorecard bills.”
“The Georgia Chamber serves our business community through strong legislative action driven by the input and recommendations of our investors,” said David Raynor, Chief Public Affairs Officer for the Georgia Chamber. “This scorecard reflects how members of Georgia’s General Assembly voted on business issues during the 2021-2022 session. Georgia legislators need input from the business community to make strong, confident decisions impacting our economy and we believe this scorecard process delivers timely and relevant information that will help them accomplish that goal in the next term”
The 2021-2022 Scorecard includes issues addressing education, healthcare, legal reform, taxation, and transportation. It is now live and can be found at gachamberscore.com. The site currently includes a synopsis of each bill and reflects how legislators voted on these issues as well as the final letter grade they earned based on the combined votes for the two-year term.
