(The Center Square) — A Georgia House working group is exploring how the state can attract and retain state troopers, and it could lead to additional state funding for increased compensation.
“Ultimately, your work should allow us to increase the number of state patrol troopers keeping our highways and our communities safe,” Speaker Jon Burns, R-Newington, said during a Tuesday House Working Group on Public Safety meeting. “…This is not a simple issue; it’s multifaceted. It’s going to take some really good thought and some inspection and contemplation to come up with solutions and bring back to us.”
