Burt Jones: “It does really kind of disgust me that you have one private company that's used taxpayer dollars to basically triple the costs of healthcare in this state … I don't mind calling out Jackson Healthcare for being the culprit of our healthcare costs” Even Burt Jones gets it. #gapol

Let’s set the record straight. Things that are real: - Trump lost in 2020. - Ossoff and Warnock won free and fair elections. - There is an affordability crisis. Things that aren’t real: - Voter fraud cost Trump the 2020 Election. - Whatever the MyPillow guy believes - Inflation is good.

Fact: Georgia’s actual state minimum wage is still set at $5.15 an hour, a rate decided 29 years ago in 1997. Since then, the overall cost of living in Georgia has skyrocketed by 109%. Groceries that cost $100 back then cost over $212 today. Georgia families deserve a raise. #gapol

On June 19, 1865, word arrived in Galveston, Texas, that the last enslaved Black Americans were finally free. Juneteenth is a celebration of that liberation. But it is also a reminder that freedom is never free, and it never goes on sale. Happy Juneteenth!

Trump just reminded us why Republicans are rigging maps: they have absolutely no clue how the economy works. They can’t deliver for working Georgians, so they gerrymander to protect their careers.

Senate Minority Leader Jones II is demanding that Governor Kemp extend the gas tax holiday: “Georgia Republicans love Donald Trump’s reckless war. And they don’t care that you are paying for it at the gas pump. Why else would Governor Kemp kill the gas tax holiday at midnight tonight?

🚨 The latest AJC poll proves what we already knew: inflation is the #1 issue for Georgians. Yet the GOP supports: 1) Trump’s billion-dollars-a-day war raising gas prices, 2) hiking sales taxes on gas, groceries, and beer, 3) refusing federal dollars to expand Medicaid and lower healthcare costs

🚨 Former FTC Chair Lina Khan’s message is clear: state governments have the enforcement power to break up monopolies. That’s why Sen. Sonya Halpern is calling for funding of a study committee on free and fair markets. It’s time for Georgia to step up to the plate like other states across the U.S.

Yesterday, Senate GOP passed HB 1199, aligning Georgia tax code with recent federal changes. But it excludes federal expansions for affordable housing tax credits. Senate Republicans have made their priorities clear, and access to affordable housing isn’t one of them. #gapol

Thursday made abundantly clear the priorities of the GA Senate GOP: Trump above anything and everything. Instead of legislating to lower your costs, they skipped town to attend Trump’s rally in Rome. #gapol
