Media release: Sen. Barry Loudermilk (R-Cassville) has received the highest ranking given on the Georgia Chamber of Commerce Honor Roll. The Chamber's Honor Roll recognizes legislators that were most supportive of the business community during the 2012 Legislative Session.  

"I would like to thank the Georgia Chamber of Commerce for acknowledging my commitment to the people of this great state," said Sen. Loudermilk. "My colleagues and I have limited government regulation, reduced taxes, and cut wasteful spending. These efforts have resulted in renewed economic growth that will propel us towards a brighter future.""

Throughout the 2012 Georgia General Assembly session, legislators addressed a number of issues important to the state's business community. Legislation deemed most important to enhancing Georgia's economic competitiveness through education, economic development, business and industry, and judiciary reform were designated as scorecard issues by the Georgia Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Council and are included in this year's Legislative Scorecard. Each legislator's grade, given by the Georgia Chamber, reflects an assessment of his or her support for business community priorities.

"The A+ grade given by the Georgia Chamber to State Sen. Barry Loudermilk reflects an unwavering commitment to bringing jobs, investment and long-term economic growth to Georgia," said Georgia Chamber President and CEO, Chris Clark.  "Without question, Sen. Loudermilk is a true champion of the state's business community and we are tremendously grateful to have such a strong voice at the Capitol working to strengthen Georgia's pro-business climate and help companies across the state effectively compete in the global marketplace."
