If you’d like to take a look at the exact language of the proposed constitutional amendment relating to Georgia’s non compete agreements as it will appear on the ballot this week, we have it here for your convenience:
Proposed constitutional amendments
1. Allows competitive contracts to be enforced in Georgia courts.
House Resolution No. 178
Ga. L. 2010, p. 1260
“Shall the Constitution of Georgia be amended so as to make Georgia more economically competitive by authorizing legislation to uphold reasonable competitive agreements?”
