LEGISLATIVE WATCH 2010

June 27, 2010 Update

Candidate for governor Roy Barnes gave an "animated speech" as he stood before PBA members at its office
in McDoughan, GA

Governor signs PTSD License Bill into law:
Governor Perdue against the wishes of many Georgia veterans organizations and the
Georgia Department of Veterans Affairs signed into law SB-419. This law could have an adverse impact on Georgia's veterans.
Southern States and Veterans Coalition recommends that veterans suffering with PTSD not have this diagnosis
placed on drivers license. Our politicians who do not listen to our police officers and military veterans must be
held accountable for their votes on the issues effecting us. Click on this link to read about SB-419.
