The House Communications Office, previously known as the Georgia House Public Information Office, provides media credentials and workspace for journalists who cover the Georgia House of Representatives and serves as the direct liaison between the Office of the Speaker and media outlets in the state. The Director of Media Relations for House Communications, under the direction of the Director of Media Services, supervises the Communications staff to facilitate the coverage by reporters of legislative activity. Communications staff provides bill texts and reports of pending legislation and disseminates press releases and calendars of business to accredited reporters. A Daily Report is prepared for Members of the House, the press corps, and House staff detailing the legislative action of the house. In addition, the office maintains the system on which taped excerpts from floor debates are recorded for audio pickups by radio stations. Daily activity feeds are also available through the Georgia Legislative Network.
