In the wake of Hurricane Helene, we're grateful to the thousands who responded to the calls for help. @GeorgiaPower deployed 20k+ workers to restore power to 1.3M customers and address damage on an immense scale.

#BREAKING: Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens announced Monday the largest expansion to MARTA’s train network in decades with four new stations expected to join the public transit system, including one near the Beltline. https://t.co/6TIVqj7kGe

[Governor Brian P. Kemp @GovKemp]

Marty and I appreciated speaking with business and community leaders at the @atlchamber meeting today. Georgia’s business community is a strong partner, and we’re working hard to maintain our unprecedented economic success and a workforce that’s ready for the jobs of tomorrow.

Such a great idea. All GA HS seniors get a personalized letter in the mail in October, telling them which schools are “saving them a spot” based on their GPA. Getting this info to them at this time of year is so important.

Combined with HOPE, this is a game changer.

Georgia Match, the new direct admissions program for Georgia’s 120k HS seniors will have a huge impact on our young talent. It is so vital for students (& parents!) to know the college options available.

Kudos to @GovKemp for continuing to position Georgia for success.

"A lot of the more interesting food restaurants in town are too casual, service wise, or playful." (which is why we love them)

On this Presidents Day, visitors are touring Jimmy Carter’s boyhood farm on the outskirts of Plains. He used to walk along the train tracks behind with a basket full of boiled peanuts to sell in town. On a good day, he’d earn a dollar after the six-mile round trip. #gapol

Some solid faves on this list. So glad to see this kind of recognition for Atlanta's food and drink. https://t.co/VXZUiec29o

Grady Lobby

I was sitting at the #NoJudgmentZone table and notice a Grady elder quickly moving toward me on a walker.

Her: "'Scuse me, baby. You know where this at?" *places paper onto desk*

I took the paper and scanned it. Someone jogged up beside her.

Niece: "Auntie!"
