Sen. Greg Dolezal Ranked Among Georgia’s Most Effective Lawmakers During 2023-2024 Biennium

ATLANTA (May 5, 2025) - Chairman of the Senate Committee on Transportation Sen. Greg Dolezal (R-Cumming) was recently recognized as one of the most effective legislators in the Georgia General Assembly during the 2023-2024 Legislative Biennium. The nonpartisan evaluation conducted by the Center for Legislative Accountability (CLA) assigned Sen. Dolezal an effectiveness score of 2.09, more than twice the legislative average of 1.0.

"I'm honored to be recognized as one of the most effective legislators in the Georgia Senate during the 2023-2024 Biennium," said Sen. Dolezal. "This recognition can be attributed to the hard work my colleagues and I put into advancing policies that reflect the values and priorities of Georgia families. I'm especially proud of the passage of Senate Bill 233, the Georgia Promise Scholarship Act, which empowers parents with more educational options and gives every child a better chance at success, regardless of their ZIP code. Throughout the previous biennium, I was also proud to champion legislation that reached final passage, including SB 1, SB 26, SB 204, SB 353 and SB 430. I intend to continue this progress and pass meaningful legislation during the 2025-2026 Biennium."

The CLA's annual effectiveness report assesses all state lawmakers based on key indicators that measure their ability to sponsor, advance and pass legislation through the General Assembly. The criteria include the number of bills a legislator sponsors, how far those bills progress through the legislative process and how many ultimately become law.
