Atlanta Massage Parlors: Lee Thompson`s Legislative Report
Posted on May 4th, 2010 in Atlanta massage parlors
… Approved SB 299, addressing problems with so- called “zero tolerance” school disciplinary laws, would prevent the immediate jailing of a student without a hearing and give judges more discretion as to how they handle cases. The zero tolerance laws were intended to crack down on serious charges of having weapons in school but have instead often resulted in students being criminalized for minor and insignificant infractions.
· Approved SB 360, which bans motorists in Georgia from texting while driving, and HB 23, which bans teenagers from talking on cell phones while driving. A violation of either law, if signed by the governor, would result in a fine of up to $150 and one point on the driver’s license of the offender.
· Approved an amended version of SB 364, which would increase the penalties for criminal offenses in massage parlors and spas. The Senate agreed with House amendments, and the bill now goes to the governor.
