El comité debatió HR 3, que ratificaría una suspensión adicional de dos semanas de los impuestos sobre los combustibles para vehículos de motor y el diésel. Los presentadores dijeron que la suspensión les ahorró a los habitantes de Georgia casi $100 millones. El presidente alentó a reponer con fondos excedentes los recursos perdidos para la infraestructura de transporte, como, según dijo, se había hecho anteriormente. El comité aprobó por unanimidad incluir la resolución en el calendario del quinto día legislativo, que se identificó como el día siguiente.

Desde 0:03:56 · turnos 5 a 55
El presidente del Comité de Finanzas explicó que HR 3 ratificaría una suspensión adicional de dos semanas del impuesto sobre los combustibles, ordenada por el gobernador después del período de sesiones y tras suspensiones anteriores. Un miembro del comité preguntó cuánto ahorrarían los conductores y confirmó la duración de dos semanas. El presidente del Comité de Finanzas estimó ahorros mensuales de entre $180 millones y $200 millones, lo que situaría el ahorro de las dos semanas en cerca de $100 millones. El presidente del Comité de Reglas dijo que las suspensiones anteriores les habían ahorrado a los residentes alrededor de $1 mil millones, pero también habían restado esa cantidad a los fondos para infraestructura. El presidente dijo que los fondos excedentes habían repuesto ese dinero y alentó a hacerlo de nuevo. El presentador designado para el pleno dijo que esta suspensión les había ahorrado a los habitantes de Georgia casi $100 millones e instó a ratificarla. Después de que un miembro seleccionara la resolución para el calendario, otro preguntó si se consideraría ese día. El presidente aclaró que el calendario correspondía al quinto día legislativo, el día siguiente. El comité aprobó por unanimidad la moción para incluir la resolución en ese calendario.

Call this meeting to order.

Rules Committee on Monday, June 22nd, 2026, in the year of our Lord.
- 0:03:19
Senator Dixon, would you lead us in a word of prayer?
- 0:03:22
Absolutely, absolutely, Mr. Chairman. If you would bow your heads with me. Dear Heavenly Father, I pray for wisdom and a hedge of protection around this committee as we make very important decisions today, Lord. And, uh, I pray that you watch over, uh, everyone under the Gold Dome. In your loving name I pray, amen.
- 0:03:42
Thank you. Some late arriving members. Late arriving non-member.
- 0:03:51
We have one bill on the consideration calendar, HR 3EX. This is the ratification of the motor fuel and diesel fuel. So, we got, uh, Representative Gamble's not here. Sir, anybody want... This came through Finance. Chairman, you wanna cover that for us?
- 0:04:18
It's just ratifying, as we did for the other two months, the two-week additional suspension of the gas tax that the, uh, governor imposed after session.
- 0:04:27
Okay. Are there any questions?
- 0:04:34
Does anybody know the price of gasoline now? It was, when I filled up this morning, it was 3.74. Huh?
- 0:04:44
I got it at 3.39.
- 0:04:45
Dang, I was 3.74. I should've drove up there and got it. 3.50? I guess it's higher in Coweta County. So, Senator Robertson has a question. You're recognized.
- 0:04:59
Yes, sir. Um, Chairman Hufstetler, is, is there a, a, a, an approximate figure that you can give us on what this would save residents driving? And this is two weeks, correct?
- 0:05:11
Mm-hmm.
- 0:05:12
Is there-
- 0:05:13
It's, it's a little, uh, it's, it's, uh, for a month is 180 to 200 million. So for a two-week week period, it's gonna be half of that.
- 0:05:20
Half of that, all right. So it's a substantial savings for our taxpayers.
- 0:05:24
Close to $100 million, correct.
- 0:05:25
Thank you.
- 0:05:27
Well, it's our mind in years past, we have, uh, backfilled that with surplus. Um, last couple years I think we ran it. It was about a billion dollars in savings to our, um, to our citizens, but also it was a billion dollars out of our infrastructure, which we put back with surplus. And so I would encourage us all to try to do that again as we move forward. Senator Hatchett, you're presenting this bill on the floor should it make it out of Rules.
- 0:06:00
Would you, do you have anything you'd like to add to the conversation?
- 0:06:04
No, we've done this multiple times before. Um, this specific gas tax suspension has saved Georgians almost $100 million and, um, it would be a big mistake if we don't ratify this.
- 0:06:21
Are there any questions for the longest serving governor's floor leader of all time?
- 0:06:28
Senator Ginn, if you'll leave the table. Senator Ginn, get him out of here.
- 0:06:33
What'd you want, Jeff?
- 0:06:35
Get him out of here. Turn the phone off or get out. Thank you.
- 0:06:40
Mike, I think...
- 0:06:42
Senator Rhett, you have a question.
- 0:06:47
Go ahead.
- 0:06:47
Is this a dinger?
- 0:06:49
No. We don't, we won't disclose that. I'd tell, I could tell you, but I'd have to kill you, so.
- 0:06:58
Is there, is there-
- 0:06:59
And I like you, so I don't want you to die.
- 0:07:01
Is this appropriate time to make a motion?
- 0:07:03
Um-
- 0:07:04
If I may
- 0:07:04
... are there any other questions? All right, now would be the appropriate time. I'll allow the minority whip, if you're recognized.
- 0:07:13
Oh, thank you, Mr. Chair. I move that we put HR 3EX on the calendar.
- 0:07:20
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. First we gotta have a pick. I gotta do picks.
- 0:07:25
Oh, I'm sorry.
- 0:07:26
And I have, uh, decided that during special session, whoever, whoever arrives to Rules Committee first gets the pick. So today's winner is all the citizens from Senate District 56, represented by Senator John Albers. What pick would you like?
- 0:07:52
Mr. Chairman, you're, uh-
- 0:07:54
I don't know what number you are
- 0:07:55
... I am, uh, number three.
- 0:07:56
All right.
- 0:07:57
You're, uh, you're most gracious and, uh, kind. And, uh, after a careful review and thorough analysis, I would like to choose, if you allow it, uh, HR 3EX.
- 0:08:08
HR 3EX. Okay, now would be the appropriate time for a motion.
- 0:08:14
Point of clarification. This says for the fifth legislative day, but are, are, are we actually gonna do this today?
- 0:08:20
No. We're, we're going off-
- 0:08:22
It is-
- 0:08:22
... the yellow sheet-
- 0:08:23
Okay
- 0:08:23
... fifth yellow legislative day tomorrow.
- 0:08:24
All right, sir. All right, no problem. Um, I move that we, um, add HR 3EX to the legislative calendar for the fifth day.
- 0:08:31
Okay. We'll have a motion, we'll have a second from both whips. Is there any further discussion? All in favor say aye.
- 0:08:42
Aye.
- 0:08:44
Any opposed say nay. Motion carries unanimous. Okay, go back to the floor. Meeting adjourned.
