ATLANTA — State Representatives Viola Davis, D-Stone Mountain, Sandra Scott, D-Rex, Kim Schofield, D-Atlanta, Donna McLeod, D-Lawrenceville, and Rhonda Burnough, D-Riverdale, recently co-sponsored legislation to increase accountability within the Georgia Department of Labor and call for the resignation of GDOL Commissioner Mark Butler.
These legislators also support a recently filed writ of mandamus that seeks to instate a State Advisory Council to improve the department’s operations.
