Legislative Accomplishments
Representative William Boddie passed 27 bills in six years as a Democrat in the Georgia General Assembly. With those pieces of legislation, Representative Boddie has either been the lead sponsor or a lead co-sponsor on bills ranging from repealing the Citizens Arrest Statute in Georgia; to passing a Municipal Option Sales Tax (MOST) that would allow the cities of East Point, College Park, and Hapeville to call for a referendum to implement a 1-cent sales tax to improve the wastewater and sewer infrastructure in those cities. Representative Boddie has a proven track record for advocating for legislation and policy initiatives that will not only benefit his constituents of House District 62 but legislation and policy initiatives that will ultimately benefit all Georgians.
As Georgia Labor Commissioner, Representative Boddie will continue to use his advocacy skills, steadfast dedication, and relentless work ethic to fight for policy initiatives and administrative procedures that will benefit all Georgians and put Georgia Workers First.
