Change often starts with people who are willing to challenge the status quo. The power of grassroots efforts & collective action remind us that transformative movements throughout history have often been driven by the determination and courage of a small, committed group.

Smaller than the House, the Georgia Senate has 56 state senators.The Lieutenant Governor leads as the President of the Senate and is elected directly by Georgia voters.
As the second highest elected official in Georgia, the Lieutenant Governor can influence state policy and spending priorities. Like the Speaker of the House, the Lieutenant Governor appoints Committee Chairs and cannot vote on legislation.
It convenes annually from January to late March to establish the state's operating budget and propose legislation on a wide range of issues, including education and environmental protection.
