A New Georgia

I am deeply grateful to the voters of the old Senate District 48 who elected me their State Senator on February 12, 2002 to succeed now Judge Billy Ray, and to the voters of the new Senate District 48 who re-elected me without opposition in the 2002 and 2004 general elections. I do my very best every day to represent them under the Gold Dome.

It has been a honor to serve with our Republican Governor, Sonny Perdue, and with my Republican colleagues in the now Majority Caucus of the State Senate. I was privileged to serve as one of the Governor's administration floor leaders and as Chairman of the Senate Science and Technology Committee. I look forward to my new assignment as Chairman of the Senate Regulated Industries and Public Utilities Committee.

Although I am unopposed for reelection in 2006, my name will be on the ballot. If you live in Senate District 48, I earnestly ask for your vote.

I hope you will feel free to contact me with your questions and suggestions. The better I understand your concerns, the more effective I will be as your State Senator. Thank you for taking the time to visit my website.

David Shafer May 25, 2006
