Local state lawmakers are predicting that the 2014 legislative session, which begins Monday, Jan. 13, likely will be the quickest one on record. Elected officials say the Georgia General Assembly will maintain a brisk pace through the required 40 legislative-day cycle with few breaks, so that members running for re-election can meet qualifying deadlines and raise campaign funds. 2014 is an election year, and according to state law, Georgia politicians cannot raise campaign funds for state-level elections while the legislature is in session, confirmed District 1 Sen. Buddy Carter, R-Pooler.“There’s going to be a lot of politics up there this year,” he said.
