Republican Liberty Caucus of Georgia Supports Franchise Fee Transparency and Fairness
ATLANTA, GA, January 28, 2007 – The Republican Liberty Caucus of Georgia, a grassroots organization promoting individual freedom, limited government and fiscal responsibility, has issued a position on HB107 – Municipal government; additional requirements; certain franchise fees.
House Bill 107 will impose greater transparency, breaking out the cost of government in the bills consumers receive each month. It will also impose fairness in taxation. Consumers will not be forced to pay the fees and taxes imposed upon a utility by political jurisdictions to which they do not reside and have no vote.
The Republican Liberty Caucus of Georgia takes positions in support or opposition to legislation under consideration in the Georgia General Assembly. Our criteria are based on the Liberty Compact we ask all candidates to sign. It states that candidates will work to: restore liberty, shrink government, reduce taxes, abolish programs, and promote the freedom and independence of Georgia citizens.
The Republican Liberty Caucus intends to use the recorded committee and floor votes for HB 107 as part of its review process for 2008 endorsements. We encourage all Republicans who believe in liberty to vote in favor of HB 107.
ABOUT The Republican Liberty Caucus of Georgia – The Republican Liberty Caucus of Georgia was chartered to elect and support pro-liberty candidates in Georgia. We endorsed 29 pro-liberty Republicans in 2006, 25 of which now serve in office.
