Grateful for my friend and fellow fighter @RussGoodman8, who has been in the trenches with me in our fight to get fentanyl off our streets and out of our communities. #gapol

[Burt Jones @burtjonesforga]

I’m honored to have Gus and Beth Walters' endorsement.

After their son, Austin, was tragically taken from this world due to fentanyl, we helped pass ‘Austin’s Law’ which became the toughest law against fentanyl in Georgia.

Their fight is why I fight for Georgians every day

[Lt. Governor Burt Jones @LtGovJonesGA]

Proud to stand with South Georgians as they recover from these devastating wildfires. Working alongside Governor Kemp and the Trump administration, we've secured tax relief for families and businesses in Clinch, Echols, and Brantley Counties.

Happy Easter from the Goodman family! ✝️

Happy National Ag Day, Georgia! 🌾

We're grateful for the farmers who keep our state running and our tables full.

Hear from your Senate Republican farmers, and don’t forget to thank a farmer today. #gapol #GASenateGOP

[Georgia Agriculture Commissioner Tyler Harper @AgCommHarperGA]

We are deeply grateful to President @realDonaldTrump & USDA @SecRollins continued commitment to supporting American Agriculture. #gapol

If decency and civility were the crops that fed civilization and the crop estimate for such was estimated by scrolling Twitter for signs of “fruit of the spirit” I’m afraid most agronomists would conclude that our society is headed toward a famine.

@BCRobinsonGA Brian I’m just an ole South Georgia farmer but I must admit that it amazes me how one’s loyalties can be so easily bought within the political industrial complex. Forgive me but where I’m from we just run a little deeper than that.

[Lt. Governor Burt Jones @LtGovJonesGA]

Austin's Law is helping save lives in Georgia. I want to thank the Walters family for their courage to reach out and their dedication to honor Austin’s life. I am proud of Sen. Russ Goodman for sponsoring this priority legislation and thankful to the Georgia Senate for its bipartisan support. This vital legislation protects Georgians by ensuring that criminals who sell poisons like fentanyl are held accountable.

Great morning on our family farm in Butts County with my friend and our outstanding Senate Agriculture Chairman, @RussGoodman8. Agriculture is Georgia’s #1 industry and the backbone of our economy. I’ll always fight for rural Georgia and the men and women who get up before daylight to feed and fuel our state 🇺🇸

[Russ Goodman @RussGoodman8]

From our little family to yours, we wish you all the happiest of Thanksgivings!

[Russ Goodman @RussGoodman8]

@DolezalForGA Agreed

[GA Senate Republicans @GASenateGOP]

Georgia agriculture is a top driver of our state’s economy and a way of life for countless families. The Senate Study Committee on Agriculture and Consumer Affairs, chaired by Senator Russ Goodman, works to ensure farmers, producers, and consumers have the tools they need to thrive. Senator Lee Anderson serves as Vice Chair, Senator Larry Walker III as Secretary, and members include Senators Max Burns, Drew Echols, Bo Hatchett, Carden Summers, and Sam Watson.

This past session, the committee focused on supporting Georgians impacted by Hurricane Helene, championing legislation such as the TREES Act to provide much-needed relief and help farmers and rural communities recover and rebuild. In addition, the committee has worked to strengthen Georgia’s reputation as a national leader in agriculture by addressing issues that matter to both producers and consumers—protecting family farms, expanding markets, and ensuring food safety. 

From storm recovery to modernizing laws that keep Georgia agriculture competitive, the Senate Study Committee on Agriculture and Consumer Affairs is leading with solutions that put Georgia’s farm families first. By tackling challenges head-on and embracing opportunities for growth, Senate Republicans are making sure agriculture remains the backbone of our economy and a proud tradition that carries Georgia forward for generations to come.

[Lt. Governor Burt Jones @LtGovJonesGA]

Today is a big win for Georgia families and farmers!

Thank you to @AgCommHarperGA, @GADeptAg, and Chairman @RussGoodman8 for their leadership in securing $531 million in block grant relief for communities impacted by Hurricane Helene.

Our number 1 industry continues to be resilient, and Georgia’s farmers have my full support as they rebuild, stronger than before! #gapol

Happy Labor Day! Today we celebrate the hardworking Georgians who provide for their families and keep our state moving forward. Wishing you a safe and restful holiday with family and friends.

My good friend and fellow blueberry farmer Steve Mullis sent me this photo this morning of this beautiful rainbow around Capitol Square. In an area with no shortage of egos, maybe it’s just God’s gentle way of reminding everyone this morning who’s really in charge!🇺🇸🙏

[Russ Goodman @RussGoodman8]

Looking forward to this year’s annual Ag Summit in Perry! We have a great group of speakers lined up and look forward to seeing everyone as we will be highlighting the successes, challenges and opportunities moving forward involving our state’s #1 industry!

Three characteristics I truly appreciate in people is humility, honesty and authenticity. You can’t fake being genuine and to be honest with the people, you must first be honest with yourself by knowing who you are and not being afraid to show the real “you” to others. In a world with too many fakes, people like Mike are unfortunately becoming more rare and it’s something I truly admire about him. Personally I like having someone represent me who can be just as comfortable talking to the CEO or the lowest level employee in the company and be able to genuinely relate to both of them. I talked with Mike a week or so ago and he told me he was praying about the Senate. I told him that God would lead him and that he’d know what the right thing to do is one way or the other and when he knew that God would give him peace about whatever decision he makes. He grinned and told me that’s exactly what his pastor told him. Whatever decision Mike comes to, you can believe he’ll explain his decision with an unvarnished truth. I admire people who aren’t afraid to be themselves and Mike has that in abundance. No matter what he decides, I’m proud to call him my friend, am thankful he’s in our congressional delegation and that people like Mike are still willing to offer themselves up for public service.
