July 1st of each year is the day when new laws from the 2014 Georgia legislative session take effect each year. Don't know what made it into law? You can find the list signed by Governor Nathan Deal right here.
Lots of controversy surrounded the new expanded concealed carry law that will go into effect tomorrow. If you know me, you know what side of that issue I'm clearly on. If you don't I'll keep my politics to myself.
Another law, that I was strongly in favor of that passed is one that doesn't allow web sites to post mug shots and then charge people to take them down. Also passing was a law that made colleges lower the standard for "passing" the SAT to home schooled students. That I really don't understand and don't think is good for our state or home schooled kids.
Another filled with controversy was the only pass in the fast lane on multi-lane roads. So those folks who are driving slow in the fast lane and won't move over to the right... they could get a ticket now. I'm curious to how much enforcement will come on this one.
