Lt. Governor Duncan issued the following statement today on the reconvening of the 2020 legislative session.

“Per the adjournment resolution the Speaker and I must agree on a reconvening date, and that process is ongoing,” said Lt. Governor Geoff Duncan. “We continue to work closely with the Senate Administrative Affairs team to create procedures that allow us to return safely to the Capitol.

I am diligently working to implement a Senate-wide testing program for all Senate members and staff prior to session reconvening. June 15 will give members enough time, after the primary election, to be tested for free at their local health departments, which all Georgians are able to do.”
