ATLANTA - State Representative Eric Gisler (D-Watkinsville) recently introduced House Resolution 1200, which would urge Georgia's secretary of state to continue to protect private and protected information contained in Georgia's voter registration list.
"Today, I have filed a resolution that re-affirms that if the secretary of state were to release recently requested information to the U.S. Department of Justice, it would not only violate state law, but it would also violate the trust of Georgia voters and unnecessarily put their personal information at risk," said Rep. Gisler. "This resolution should not be necessary or partisan, as it is a simple affirmation of current Georgia law. I announced this resolution to the full House Chamber last Thursday and openly requested bipartisan co-sponsors."
If adopted, this resolution would affirm that the secretary of state should continue to protect private information contained in Georgia's voter registration list from a request from the United States Department of Justice to provide unredacted copies of this list.
The full text of HR 1200 may be found here.
Representative Eric Gisler represents the citizens of District 121, which includes portions of Clarke and Oconee counties. He was first elected to the House of Representatives in 2025 and currently serves on the Defense and Veterans Affairs, Health and Intragovernmental Coordination committees.
