@MurphyAJC@ajc Come on really? The new bldg will be big enough to host full committees and rooms of people trying to engage. The old building is from FDR and the Capitol was built in the 1880s. We should celebrate the new accessible, modern building.
To keep Georgia the best place to live, work, raise a family, and create good-paying jobs, we’re making sure our state’s growth helps drive down energy costs and strengthen reliability.
Pretty clear and convincing numbers for @BrianKempGA’s tort reform package.

All of Georgia is proud of this incredible milestone.
We're thankful for this historic achievement by @GeorgiaPower and its partners. It will only further our reputation as the No. 1 state to do business and the best place to live, work, and raise a family!
