As Georgia Democrats regroup after a tough election cycle, some leaders are taking a proactive approach to rebuilding the party. On today’s episode of Politically Georgia, hosts Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy sit down with State Sen. Josh McLaurin and State Rep. Ruwa Romman to discuss their strategy for moving forward and what they believe is needed to strengthen Democratic influence in the state.
Meanwhile, Governor Brian Kemp has successfully pushed his 'tort reform' measure through the state Senate, but now it faces a new battle in the House. We’ll break down whether the legal overhaul will survive the session and what it could mean for businesses and consumers in Georgia.
Plus, Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens prepares to deliver his final State of the City address of his first term. We’ll preview his key priorities and how they could shape his reelection bid.
And a renewed effort to honor Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is underway. Georgia Republicans are pushing to erect a statue in his honor, but they’ve adjusted their original plan to place it on the capitol grounds. We’ll discuss the latest on this effort and the political debate surrounding it.
