The Georgia legislature needs to repeal and
modify Georgia law and the GA budget to keep up with the Trump Agenda. They are
all globalists and will probably drag their feet on everything that doesn’t
have federal dollars attached. The $4.1 trillion federal budget certainly has
enough room to continue to waste money, but Trump can attack actual federal
spending by not spending on things that don’t make sense.
I do see some interest in returning
manufacturing to rural Georgia Counties and this is critical.
Over the years, I have included a growing list
of things the Georgia legislature should stop and other things they should
do. See below:
Georgia Legislation
Planning 2017
December 19, 2016
The Trump victory in
2016 should send a signal to the Georgia Legislature to put voters first. Over
the past 8 years, we’ve seen Georgia buckle under Obama’s bribes and threats
and engage in the “top-down” style of government imposed by the Obama
administration. Georgia needs to prepare for a change. The
following list has remained unheeded for the past 8 years and it’s time to stop
abusing Georgia voters.
Rein in government
abuse of voters
Sharia law should be
outlawed in Georgia. 17 other States have banned Sharia law as incompatible
with US law. Islamic training camps should be closed and weapons seized.
Voter lists should be
cleaned up annually to remove names of voters who have died. E-Verify
should be used to ensure that voters are citizens. Non-citizens should
either not be given Georgia Drivers’ Licenses or these licenses should indicate
their non-citizen status. Foreign drivers’ licenses should be honored for
visitors. Precincts with high concentrations of refugees and immigrants should
have votes audited to correct voter fraud.
The fines being
imposed for minor traffic violations have become unsustainable. Fines that were
$75 not long ago are now $500. This is predatory price-gouging. The legislature
needs to look at their open-ended approach to letting municipalities do
whatever they want.
Public school failure
will be addressed by the Trump administration using vouchers to create
competition, especially in failed schools. The Georgia legislature needs to
begin to plan for this. This appears to be isolated to inner-city schools.
The Refugee Program
will come to a close, but there will be criminal illegals and illegitimate
refugees to identify and round up. “Sanctuary” status will be outlawed.
Protests should
require permits and should be restricted daytime hours and be held in easy to
isolate sections of city parks, away from highways, streets and buildings.
Police should supervise these protests. Simultaneous counter-protests should
not be allowed. Protesters should not be allowed access to highways or roads to
disrupt traffic or commerce.
The Georgia
Legislature continues to be packed with “Chamber of Commerce Republicans”. They
do a good job for commercial real estate developers and contractors using
federal grant money for mal-investments like even more shopping venues at a
time when demand is dropping due to less disposable income for consumers.
They do a good job for
municipalities with legislation that enables city councils and county
commissions to continue to borrow and spend and give away tax holidays without
voter approval and impose unnecessary permits, fees and fines.
The State allows
Agenda 21 implementation through regional commissions. They do nothing to
protect citizens from federal and local government abuses.
There are several
initiatives that would benefit regular voters. These are populist moves
that would rein in laws that cut voters out of the decision-making process and
allow elected officials to ignore voter wishes. Some of these laws need to be
repealed.
Georgians need well
maintained roads, sufficient water supplies, affordable electricity, stronger
property rights, better voter fraud control, jobs, protection from
unconstitutional federal laws and regulations, protection from local government
abuse and protection from future inflation caused by wasteful government
spending.
Georgia taxpayers do
not need to subsidize commercial development, public transit, new urban
planning, on-street bike lanes, trollies, more parks, multi-use trails,
wildlife preserves, unelected governance or matching tax dollars for Obama
squander-grants.
Georgia taxpayers have
been plagued by UN Agenda 21 implementation pushed by the Regions and the ICLEI
trained consultants dictating costly cookie-cutter Master Plans and Land-Use
Zoning Plans. City Managers and consultants run the cities. City Council Reps
operate by “group think”. County government is insular with a few exceptions.
Local government spends twice as much as it should and nobody is preventing
this waste.
We ask that you
consider the following:
End Government Abuse
Pass Georgia
Sovereignty Laws to protect Georgia citizens from unconstitutional federal laws
and regulations and protect property owners from federal seizure, interference
and abuse. Pass Georgia Property Rights Laws that protect property owners
from government abuse at all levels.
Ban all Agenda 21
implementation in Georgia. Alabama did this already. It’s time to get ready to
reject federal bribery grants aimed to make us squander tax money on low
priority, unnecessary, stupid things. It’s time to stop abusive federal
agencies at the Georgia border.
Repeal Regionalism:
Repeal HB 1216 that created regional commissions for “economic
development”. Repeal HB 277 that allows Regional sales tax votes
violating “home rule”.
Stop “conservation
easements”. Provide property owners with ways to reduce excessive
easements. Require local governments to pay “fair value” for easement
taking. Enact strict private property rights.
Nullify Obamacare
totally to end the job-killing 30 hour rule and allow healthcare providers to
dump costly and unnecessary regulations and lower costs.
Remove Common Core
from Georgia and assert that federal involvement in education is
unconstitutional.
Cancel Georgia’s
application to the Article V Convention of States. It’s too dangerous to
do this with the bad guys in charge.
Free Up Jobs
Discourage further
job-killing illegal immigration by removing all taxpayer supported benefit
eligibility for illegals and “refugees” in Georgia. Remove eligibility for all
tax funded benefits from refugees and illegal aliens including drivers’
licenses, public schooling, medical care, in-state tuition and discrimination
rules. Missouri did this and illegals moved out-of-state.
Discourage excessive
job-killing legal immigration. We need to allow our high unemployment to
subside. Ensure that Georgia farmers have an efficient, successful “guest
worker” plan, remove “guest worker” work permit status from all other
occupations. Increase employment of
citizens by restricting legal and illegal immigration
Ensure Basic Needs
Ensure that reservoirs
are built and water supplies are ample for homes and farms.
Keep Energy Prices
Low: Nullify EPA Carbon Rules. The State can protect electric power consumers
from the global warming hoax by refusing to comply with unconstitutional
federal regulations.
End Slush Funds
Restrict all “economic
development” funds and activities to remove subsidies for commercial
development. Economic development should be focused on returning manufacturing
to Georgia.
Limit property tax
increases to 3% per year to avoid large increases like those experienced by
Hall County in 2014. Ensure that property appraisals are honest and
conservative and reflect the coming lack of first-time buyers. Protect
taxpayers from speculator-driven housing bubbles.
Limit government
borrowing power from 10% of the tax registry to 100% of the government
entities’ assets.
Require voter approval
for all tax holidays and Bonds that all government entities wish to sell. The
legal trickery used by Cobb to approve $400 million in Bonds for the Braves
Stadium is a travesty.
Enact Reform
Restrict campaign
contributions to be made by registered voters and only for candidates who would
appear on their ballot. Reduce special interest influence in handling Bills
through the legislative process.
