It took five years and three bill designations, but history has finally been made in Georgia with the passage of Georgia Act 566. The first bill (HB 149) died in committee, the second (SB 153) was vetoed on the last day, but HB 417 survived. This is a huge game changer for the betterment of the Trauma Cleanup Industry.  This new law will not only protect victims from being re-victimized, but Georgia now leads the country for the betterment of the industry and its victims.

“I’m glad to sign HB 417 to create a level playing field in the crime scene clean-up industry and protect Georgians from bad actors,” Governor Kemp said.
