Speaking before the Atlanta Press Club in downtown Atlanta, Governor Nathan Deal discussed some of the major accomplishments of the past legislative session, including a bill aimed at reducing the influence of special interests at the Capitol.
“Even though that [the ethics bill] does not do everything that everybody wants, I think it is a significant step in the right direction.”
Gov. Deal said he wouldn’t be surprised if lawmakers revisited the issue next legislative session.
“I do believe that there will be at least a good debate about whether or not some of the provisions should be tweaked, but I will not attempt to dictate to the legislative body because the rules will apply to them – [they] won’t apply to me.”
