The agenda for lawmakers coming back to the Capitol for a special session in a few weeks just got busier. The special session agenda initially included two items for consideration by legislators, but will now include three more issues when they reconvene on June 17.
Gov. Brian Kemp originally called the special session for congressional and state legislative redistricting for the 2028 elections and resolving an election issue caused by a state law that bans the use of QR codes to count votes after July 1. Kemp amended the agenda this week. The new additions include language that allow lawmakers to confirm appointments made by Kemp since the Legislature adjourned and give formal approval to the gas tax suspension Kemp issued through an emergency order that ended on June 2. The gas tax suspension started May 20.
