State Representative Lynn Smith has been named a "Legislator of the Year" by the Georgia Chamber of Commerce.
Smith, R-Newnan, was surprised with the award at the June 10 meeting of the Chamber's legislative affairs committee. "I've been a panelist and a guest speaker for them several times," she said. So when she received an invitation to the event, she assumed that's what it was for.
This year, the Chamber honored three representatives and two state senators.
The annual award is given to legislators who worked above and beyond on behalf of the state's business community during the previous legislative session, according to the Chamber.
