In a unanimous 9-0 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned a lower court’s decision last year to limit access to the medical abortion pill, Mifepristone. As of 2023, medical abortions now account for 63% of all abortions in the country.

Listen as @KimforGeorgia delivers an impassioned speech on the Senate floor against SB 180 detailing the discrimination and real-life consequences that she and many other families would face if law. SB 180 passed out of the Senate and now moves onto the House.

HAPPENING NOW: We’re honoring the 60th anniversary of the March on Washington and launching our official policy agenda, the Young People’s Platform. We know that politicians won’t save us. We save ourselves. #gapol #webuildthefuture

Imagine having your state's election interfered with and still being willing to support the man who led the charge in his presidential bid. Is this about party loyalty or protecting democracy? Which is it? #gapol

[Brian Kemp @BrianKempGA]

The 2020 election in Georgia was not stolen.

For nearly three years now, anyone with evidence of fraud has failed to come forward - under oath - and prove anything in a court of law. Our elections in Georgia are secure, accessible, and fair and will continue to be as long as I am governor.

The future of our country is at stake in 2024 and that must be our focus.
