Atlanta, GA – On Thursday, January 30, the Georgia Senior Living Association (GSLA) was invited to be part of a press conference at the Georgia State Capitol, where Governor Brian Kemp unveiled Senate Bill 68 and Senate Bill 69, a comprehensive litigation reform package. Governor Kemp was joined by Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones, Speaker Jon Burns, Insurance and Safety Fire Commissioner John King, and numerous members of the Georgia General Assembly in support of these critical reforms. Catie Ramp, President and CEO of GSLA commented, “For far too long, our litigious environment has been an inhibiting factor for Operators in Georgia. Rising insurance costs often make it difficult for providers to keep their doors open. The Georgia Senior Living Association applauds our elected leaders for working to support common-sense and fair litigation reform that will rebalance the senior living ecosystem, protect access, improve resident care, and preserve our workforce.” SB 68 and SB 69, both sponsored by Senate President Pro Tempore John Kennedy, contain reforms that benefit the Association's members. These include limiting third-party litigation funding, reforming premises liability laws, requiring plaintiffs to demonstrate actual medical costs, and preventing double-dipping on legal fees. These changes are vital to protecting senior living operators from abusive lawsuits that increase costs for providers, residents, and employees. GSLA encourages all members to join us at the Georgia State Capitol on February 5th for GSLA Advocacy Day. This event offers Providers and Industry Partners an invaluable opportunity to engage with legislators and emphasize the significance of SB 68 and SB 69 for the senior living community.
