Yesterday, Gov. Kemp cut $2.5 million for homeless veterans, more than $9.4M to address domestic violence & more than $3M for sexual assault victims.
Today, he announces a special session & the state will pay to bring lawmakers back to Atlanta in June.
Where’d he find the $?

Show up. Be heard. Fight back.

By the end of the year lawmakers will be called back for a special session to redraw GA’s voting maps for the 3rd time since 2020.
Emboldened by the evisceration of the VRA, the GOP will take every advantage to cement their power.

Let’s just be clear about what happened here.
To fund election year candy in the form of tax cuts on which to campaign, Republicans doomed funding for desperately needed services.
One of many examples: the evisceration of added NOW-COMP waivers for adults with special needs.

Kemp on the late legislative push to slash income taxes: “They know it put us in a tough position to either veto the tax cut, pay for all this stuff, or either sign the tax cut and not be able to pay for it.”
He adds:
“We’ve got a hole in the budget that we got to fix. And they may, may not really like that so much, but for the members that get reelected and come back next year, when they're dealing with the ‘27 budget, they'll be thanking us for doing this.”

The reason: he misjudged his revenue estimate in January & during the appropriations process--which just ended last month.
Among other things, he cut $2.5 million to end veterans homelessness, $9.4 million to address domestic violence, & $3.3 million for sexual assault victims.

“Our state government must follow its own Constitution. This is not optional or discretionary…Our actions set a precedent, and we should all take that very seriously.”

Our state should follow its Constitution.
SB 33 clearly violates a principle that has been the law in Georgia since 1798.
Here is my latest letter to Gov. Kemp outlining, in detail, the bill's many constitutional defects.

“Georgia’s Constitution could not be more clear that all bills for raising revenue must originate in the House of Representatives,” said state @RepScottHolcomb , D-Atlanta. “I look forward to hearing Gov. Kemp’s explanation.”

A remarkable story of perseverance, mercy, justice, and redemption.
Like Mr. Askew I hope @RepScottHolcomb will be able to pass his “Second Look” bill next session, to help others meted disproportionately stringent sentences find their way home.

Annually I host a Post Sine Die Town Hall to do a deep dive on the legislative session.
Here I discuss SB 33, the Republicans’ shambolic, rushed, unconstitutional property tax bill. (With insights from special guest @RepScottHolcomb).

Maybe the Georgia House Republican Majority could focus more on helping real, living Georgians rather than going all-in on protecting Confederate monuments. Thanks @RepScottHolcomb.

I qualified to run for re-election.
I still find meaning and purpose in the work, and I remain motivated to help improve our state’s policies.
For some reason, not everyone can see this on the SoS website so I wanted to make a statement.
Thank you.

I think back, & it wasn’t that long ago, of deploying w/ Danes for Bosnia & then after 9-11. Both were NATO missions & the Danes were a great ally.
What Trump & his henchmen are doing w/ Greenland is the opposite of what they think it is.
It’s a massive self-inflected wound.
