Thanks to my intern @sadiemc8’s hard work, I filed HR370. Would establish Comm to study impact of active shooter drills in schools. I’d prefer common sense reform, but our kids at least deserve a study of drills’ effectiveness & mental health impact.#gapol https://t.co/jd0qRAqOe5
Georgia House Democrats believe that our public tax-dollars should be spent on our public schools that most Georgia families rely on.
@GaRepublicans believe that we should be giving more support to wealthy private schools.
Which do you support?

"Let's continue to adhere to the precautions the medical professionals have put in place to keep all of us safe, healthy, and alive." - @RepBazemore63 on #HB290.
Our @RepScottHolcomb speaking in favor of #HB255, which will strengthen our state's support for victims of sexual assault.
Sexual assault survivors deserve all of the support our state can provide. The bill passed by a vote of 174-0.

"This legislation will save the lives of Georgians." - One of our State Representatives (@BeeForGeorgia) speaking in favor of Georgia #HB231.
#HB231 will provide extra protections for victims of domestic violence.
This bill passed by a vote of 174-0.

Georgia House Democrats have been leading the charge to repeal #CitizensArrest in our state.
Citizens arrest is a law rooted in slavery and propagates suspicion and violence between neighbors. We have seen it lead to tragedy. #JusticeForAhmaud#gapol#gahouse
Georgia #HB605 in its current form will strip residents in long-term care facilities of the right to have a protective, hidden recording device in their private rooms.
This will hurt Georgia's most vulnerable, not protect them.

⚕️HOW DO THE MEDICAID PLANS COMPARE?
During today's budget debate, Georgia House Democrats will be proposing measures to finally pass a #ValuesFirstBudget.
Here is how our Medicaid plan compares to @GovKemp's plan. (1/5)

For far too long, @GaRepublicans have passed budgets that prioritized out-of-state special interest and wealthy campaign donors over our hard working families.
Our communities need our support.(2/2)

BUDGET DAY
It’s #BudgetDay at the Georgia House and our caucus will be working to build a budget for the next year that reflects the values Georgians live by each day. (1/2)
We already have that. There is NO NEED for HB 531. Call Governor Kemp and tell him to VETO HB 531 if it comes to his desk!
(404) 656-1776
RT. Call now. Repeat.
I am so proud of our @GAHouseDems and their VOCAL, UNAPOLOGETIC rejection of HB 531 that seeks to take Georgia back into the dark ages, where black and brown communities are penalized for wanting to vote. Remember this next election Georgia! Remember who fought FOR your vote!
