The Buckhead breakaway poses a dilemma for Georgia lawmakers
Mar 01, 2023•27 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode description
The Buckhead cityhood movement has some newfound traction after Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones let a vote go forward on two separate measures that would pave the way for a vote on Buckhead cityhood.
In this episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, AJC political insiders Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy dig into the two measures and explain why the legislation has major problems.
Plus, our insiders ask former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms what her plans are after announcing that she will be leaving her role as a senior official in the Biden administration.
We’ll also get a look ahead to Crossover Day, which is Monday, March 6th, and the bills Greg and Patricia will be watching closely.
