For those of you that care about the actual bill

Posted by Strongbad (aka Rambler14) Mar 23 '16, 14:46

GA Legislature (mostly R) is getting a TON of heat over this.

Conventions are already threatening to move their locations. The owner of the Falcons has already come out against it. The business community is largely against it.

Our Governor (R, 2nd term, can not run again) has not decided whether he will sign the bill.
