GEORGIA: Rep. Wendell Willard-directed sub-committee kills official English legislation under the Gold Dome today<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 SR 675 likely dead forever \u2013 BUT: a chance for re-consideration if pro-English conservatives focus, unite and take action ASAP
\n\u2022 \u00a0ACTION NEEDED<\/span> for possible SR 675 reconsideration<\/p>\n

\u00a0Leave a message with these Republican legislator’s staff that we want a reconsideration vote on SR 675!<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The corporate-funded illegal alien, anti-English lobby was there and is laughing at you. See photo at bottom of this post.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Despite a poll that shows 76% of Georgians in favor<\/a>, you probably won\u2019t be allowed to vote on amending the state constitution to make English Georgia\u2019s official language of government<\/a> when you vote for president in November. About 4:00 PM today, a Republican-controlled House Judiciary sub-committee let the anti-English Democrats do the Chamber of Commerce-directed dirty work and intentionally stopped SR 675.<\/p>\n

Make no mistake: The leader of this little scheme is Republican state Rep Wendell Willard, with able assistance from sub-committee Chairman, Republican Rep Johnnie Caldwell and the Republican members of the sub-committee that did not show up for the hearing on SR 675. I was there.<\/p>\n

You need to know that there was no requirement for a vote today. The Chairman has complete power to decide if there is a vote. As Chairman, if you want a bill to pass out of committee, you don\u2019t call for a vote unless you are certain you have the needed votes in the room.<\/p>\n

You should also remember that SR 675 passed the state Senate on February 29 by a 2\/3rds majority.<\/a><\/p>\n

For the people who wonder why Republicans are voting for Donald Trump\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The Chamber of Commerce-Republican parliamentary scheme for the death of SR675 and our chance to vote on official English in November goes like this:<\/p>\n

As Chairman of the Judiciary Committee – Rep Wendell Willard (R) – appoint a \u201cyes man\u201d as one of your sub-committee Chairmen – Rep Johnnie Caldwell<\/strong> (R).<\/p>\n

Have Caldwell hold a hearing on Senate Resolution 675 in which there are four (4) Democrats and two (2) Republicans present because you \u201csuggested\u201d that the GOP members stay away on \u201cother business.\u201d<\/p>\n

Take quick testimony from the usual suspects in the illegal alien, anti-English lobby and then as sub-Committee Chairman, look around the room, insure that there are not enough GOP votes to pass out the legislation, and then make it clear that you are ready for a vote. Let the four Dems kill the Republican Resolution, and walk away with a grin. \u201cThe Democrats did it\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

The goal was to kill the legislation.<\/p>\n

By the House rules any member of the sub-Committee can ask for reconsideration and perhaps get another vote when the Republican members show up. HERO ALERT<\/strong>: Rep Barry Fleming<\/strong> did attend today and is willing to request a do-over. WE MUST BE QUICK.<\/p>\n

ACTION NEEDED: Leave a message with these Republican\u00a0legislator’s staff that we want a reconsideration vote on SR 675!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Call and email the offices of Judiciary Chairman Wendell Willard, subcommittee Chairman Johnnie Caldwell and the offices of the Republican members of the Caldwell sub-committee who styed away on \u201cother business\u201d so the Dems could kill the bill when Caldwell took a vote. The below list shows the sub-committee membership and has the contact info for the Reps who need to be the focus of your opinion. Please see the red \u201cCONTACT\u201d<\/span><\/strong> note for the GOP legislators that should hear from We The People.<\/p>\n

Shorter: How to intentionally kill SR 675, official English legislation<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n

Arrange for a committee meeting with two Republicans vs. four Democrats in a Republican-controlled General Assembly, a Republican-controlled House of Representatives, a Republican-controlled Judiciary Committee and a Republican-controlled Judiciary sub-committee:<\/p>\n
