Republicans are losing Georgia. Donald Trump now wants to steal the election.
For 25 years, the GOP failed by protecting billionaire donors like Rick Jackson at the expense of working people.
Georgians, keep voting. Run the score up and make laughing the only reasonable response to the President’s whining.
Finally, Republicans must show a little leadership. For six years, Governor Kemp and Secretary Raffensperger bragged about telling Trump no.
They need to do it again. Stand up and fight for Georgians and our democracy — even when voters reject your agenda.
- Leader Jones II
Lt. Gov. Burt Jones was going to attend tomorrow’s Trump rally, but his plans have changed after Rick Jackson’s reversal. Jones has yet to endorse Jackson.
“It didn’t sound like any statewide official was going so I was going to help get the base out, but I was told it wasn’t necessary.” #gapol
Nothing beats knocking on doors! Out on the eastside of the ATL with my friend @SairaForGeorgia launching a canvass.
We have to turn out every voter we can get between now and November 3! 💙💪🏽🍑🗳️
Senator Raphael Warnock knows what it means to fight for everyday people in the U.S. Senate. Our nominees are proud to have Sen. Warnock’s endorsement as we build the momentum needed to flip the State Senate this November. #gapol
Congratulations to Mayor Bottoms on her decisive debate victory last night. Our Caucus is proud to stand with her as she showed all of Georgia what real leadership looks like.
Georgia, here’s your choice. You have a candidate who will fight for lower costs, expanding affordable healthcare, and protecting working families. Or Rick Jackson, who proved once again tonight that he is running to enrich himself and serve as Trump’s favorite governor.
Mayor Bottoms laid out the clear vision Georgians deserve. Electing her is how we deliver real results for our families. Let’s get to work.
We’re praying for the victims of this morning’s mass shooting in Dooly County. Every mass shooting is an incomprehensible tragedy. We’ll continue monitoring this situation and advocating sensible gun reform that helps prevent these kinds of tragedies.
This isn’t true.
Congregation offered Pastor Lee gifts for his birthday. Full photo, not the cropped out image in your tweet, attached.
Republicans are scared to lose. But we shouldn’t malign parishioners or a common practice of the faith to score political points — especially during the anniversary month of an 147-year-old church.
That’s gross.
We’re asking you to please to take this down or correct the record.
Leader Jones On Rick Jackson Embracing "Intelligent" Medicaid Expansion:
Welcome to the club, Rick. You still don't get it.
Let's talk about intelligent Medicaid expansion. In 2024, Senate Democrats almost passed a bill that would've saved Georgia billions, covered over 500,000 people, and given every Georgian access to private insurance.
Where was Rick? Not in that fight. Maybe he was wandering around the 45,000 square foot mansion all his state contracts paid for.
Just like The Simpsons, General Assembly Republicans play Smithers to Rick's Mr. Burns. "Exactly, sir. We'll pay for your mansion, sir. Let the people of Georgia go without health insurance, sir! Great idea!"
Republicans have failed you for 25 years. Don't let their billionaire bankroller fool you now.
Republican Rick Jackson is pledging to close Georgia’s health insurance coverage gap by embracing what he calls an “intelligent Medicaid expansion.” It sounds a lot an amped-up version like Gov. Kemp's beleaguered Pathways plan. #gapol

Laura Loomer, an adviser and friend of Donald Trump, made horrific and disgusting statements about Black women that I refuse to repeat. I nevertheless condemn these hateful, racist comments. And I call on Rick Jackson, who promises to be the Donald Trump of Georgia, to condemn these statements as well.
Donald Trump may tolerate racism, but Georgia will not. I hope Rick Jackson follows my lead and pledges to stop Trump’s hateful regime from taking root in Georgia.

🚨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 … ”
Rick Jackson’s so wrong, even Burt Jones gets it right.
Rick Jackson has made it clear he wants to be Georgia’s Donald Trump.
So when he promises lower costs and expanded healthcare, remember what Trump told us: no wars, cheaper gas, and affordable groceries.
Rick Jackson will just deliver more of the same failed Republican leadership that has held Georgia back for two decades. #gapol
Senate Minority Leader Jones II released the following statement on the passing of Charles Walker:
“Charles Walker was the first Black Majority Leader in Georgia’s history and has been a force in Augusta politics for decades. He was also a personal friend. I’m praying for his family during this difficult time of mourning.”
