eTradeWire News/10781089
PERRY, Ga. - eTradeWire -- Rep. Shaw Blackmon (R-Bonaire) received a 2024 "Champion of Georgia's Cities Award" from the Georgia Municipal Association (GMA). The award, given at the end of every two-year legislative term to state legislators who actively support major GMA initiatives and goals, was presented to Blackmon on September 3rd in Perry.
During the 2023 and 2024 legislative sessions of the General Assembly, Representative Shaw Blackmon, as House Ways and Means Chairman, oversaw much of the revenue and taxation legislation affecting cities. Rep. Blackmon consistently considered the municipal impact of legislation and worked to address cities' needs and concerns through legislation. In particular, GMA appreciates Rep. Blackmon's sound guidance in crafting and perfecting House Bill 581, which institutes historic changes to property and sales tax.

"We appreciate the leadership and wisdom that Chairman Blackmon brings to the work of the General Assembly," said GMA CEO & Executive Director Larry Hanson. "All Georgia cities and all Georgians are the beneficiaries of Chairman Blackmon's work, and he is very deserving of this recognition."
Based in Atlanta, GMA is a voluntary, non-profit organization that provides legislative advocacy, educational, employee benefit, and consulting services to its 536 member cities.
