Video, on the General Assembly's Vimeo channel: https://vimeo.com/1167469925. Agenda: https://www.legis.ga.gov/api/document/agendas/house/Code Revision%2FCode Revision Meeting Agenda 2-24.pdf. > This is a machine transcript of the General Assembly's video, made by a speech-recognition model. It is not an official record and can mishear words, names, and numbers. Speakers are not identified. The video is the record: every timestamp links to the moment it plays. ## Summary written by Georgia Commons Written by gpt-6.1-sol from the transcript below. It is not part of the record. Quote the transcript or the video, not the summary. The committee approved [HB 1268](https://georgiacommons.org/bills/2025-2026/hb1268), which the sponsor described as a cleanup of the state code without substantive policy changes. No committee members asked questions, and the chair declined a section-by-section review. The bill passed by voice vote and was sent to the Rules Committee. The meeting then adjourned. ## Bills discussed (1) Each account was written by gpt-6.1-sol from the stretch of the transcript it names. The bill's number is said in that stretch, unless it was the only bill on a committee's agenda. ### HB 1268. Official Code of Georgia Annotated; revise, modernize and correct errors or omissions [HB 1268](https://georgiacommons.org/bills/2025-2026/hb1268) (2025-2026 Regular Session). From [0:01:13](https://vimeo.com/1167469925#t=73s), turns 2 to 8. The sponsor described [HB 1268](https://georgiacommons.org/bills/2025-2026/hb1268) as code cleanup, including punctuation and capitalization corrections, and said its more than 50 pages contained no substantive policy changes. The sponsor offered to walk through all 56 sections. The chair noted there were no questions and said a section-by-section review was unnecessary. A committee member moved to approve the bill, and another member seconded the motion. The chair declared the bill passed by voice vote and sent it to the Rules Committee. No vote count was stated. ## Transcript (10 turns) [0:00:00](https://vimeo.com/1167469925#t=0s) that we have passed and then we always have that language that all other language and conflict shall be repealed. That's what we're doing here. Uh, there are no substantial policy, uh, changes that are being made, uh, throughout these, uh, 50-plus pages. Uh, it is simply cleanup. It is inserting commas at different places where it needs to be. There are instances where we're either capitalizing or uncapitalizing, uh, words that need to be, uh, changed there. [0:00:35](https://vimeo.com/1167469925#t=35s) So Mr. Chairman, I'd be glad to walk the committee through all 56 sections should you want a thorough review, but I'll pause now to see if there are any questions as, uh, as to where I've gotten to so far. [0:00:50](https://vimeo.com/1167469925#t=50s) Thank you, Representative. I don't see any questions. I don't think there's any need to walk through every section of this bill. Uh, we trust that, uh, there has been substantive changes, but not a change to the substance, if you will. Uh, and so we will just, uh, accept a motion at this time to pass House Bill 1268 LC394848. [0:01:15](https://vimeo.com/1167469925#t=75s) Make a motion to pass. [0:01:16](https://vimeo.com/1167469925#t=76s) We got a motion. Do we have a second? [0:01:18](https://vimeo.com/1167469925#t=78s) Second. [0:01:18](https://vimeo.com/1167469925#t=78s) We have a second. Uh, all those in favor of passing House Bill 1268, uh, make it known by saying aye. [0:01:26](https://vimeo.com/1167469925#t=86s) Aye. [0:01:26](https://vimeo.com/1167469925#t=86s) All those opposed, no. The ayes have it. The bill passes on the rules. [0:01:37](https://vimeo.com/1167469925#t=97s) And we're adjourned.
