A new episode of the TBA’s Legislative Updates podcast is now streaming on the TBA website. In this episode, TBA Director of Public Policy and Government Affairs Berkley Schwarz and Adams and Reese attorney and TBA lobbyist Brad Lampley offer listeners a brief status report on SB1366/HB0237 regarding child custody and support, concerns raised over SB1097/HB1164 on probate issues and news on  HB519/SB884, which seeks to eliminate the state’s professional privilege tax (PPT). Lampley says of the PPT bill, “we’re getting some good momentum, that’s positive, but we certainly don’t want to suggest that we’re home free.” He and Schwarz continue to urge members to reach out to their state legislators and voice their opinion on the elimination of the tax. A new episode of Legislative Updates drops every Thursday and can be found on the TBA’s Facebook page or anywhere you listen to podcasts.
