At $.65/lb for cotton, I don’t think there’s a pot of gold at the end of this rainbow!

Georgia lost a gentle giant today. Jack Hill was one of the kindest, most thoughtful people I ever served with. His loss is devastating to our state, but he leaves behind an unmatched legacy of hard work & public service. Please pray for his loved ones, colleagues & community. – at Atlanta, GA

There are many ways to get your mind ready for the Legislative session. This is mine...

As a devout Christian, I am unapologetically pro-life. Every life is a blessing from God and should be protected. I am proud of Governor Kemp's efforts to advance the pro-life here in Georgia. I vow to do the same as your United States Senator. #gapol ow.ly/aB0W50xu106

Tax expert, passionate public servant, brilliant attorney, and friend. Tremendous loss to this great state.

Chairman Powell was a trusted leader and compassionate public servant whose work positively impacted countless people’s lives over the years. His loss is devastating to Georgia. (1/2) bit.ly/34oQSeh

It appears the ABA sacrificed VanDyke on the altar of politics. ABA impartial? I think not...This recommendation is glowing. Great American!

There’s a big game on Saturday & I’m so confident in the #Dawgs that I made a friendly wager with FL @GovRonDeSantis. We win & Ron comes to S. Georgia for feral hog hunting. We lose & I’m hunting pythons in the Everglades. Let’s hunker down & keep choppin’! #GoDawgs! #ATD #gapol

Hey @GovKemp - there’s a big game tomorrow in Jacksonville, and you know I’m taking @GatorsFB to get the win over @GeorgiaFootball. I’m so confident, I’m even willing to offer a friendly wager. #GoGators #UFvsUGA

My latest - an in-depth look at the state of our recreational marijuana laws in Georgia, and whether the Legislature could be on the verge of passing statewide decriminalization laws. In the paper Sunday and online now: ajc.com/news/local/should-le… #gapol
Should Georgia legalize weed? Lower penalties a growing movement

Should Georgia legalize weed? Lower penalties a growing movement

Twelve cities or counties in Georgia have passed decriminalization laws reducing the penalty for marijuana possession. Could a statewide change be on the horizon?

Innovative health care delivery using market efficiencies by Rep. Todd Jones. What a novel concept addressing an important issue. I look forward to hearing more as GOP lawmakers pitch new plan to provide health care for poor georgiarecorder.com/2019/10/… via @GeorgiaRecorder

Picking cotton yesterday. Reminded of the blessings of an abundant harvest. Dumped a basket in 15 minutes. Last yr after Hurricane, I dumped when I got sleepy. Blessed.

You managed to get the civics, facts, and math wrong to promote this conspiracy. 1) Any of those 53K could still vote w/ an id: xitter.cf/AG_Conservative/status… 2) Even if those were all legit voters that did not vote and ALL voted for Abrams, she lost by 54,723.

Here's your Friday reminder that if the GA Secretary of State hadn’t been allowed to hold back 53,000 voter registrations, Stacey Abrams would be the Governor of Georgia right now. We have to stop the discrimination at the ballot box and restore the Voting Rights Act!

People in SW Georgia are all too aware of the dire condition of the state’s rural health system, so it’s not a surprise the opening of a small medical school was an event worthy of a governor’s ribbon cutting, via @beauvans bit.ly/33gMVYW

Abraham Lincoln once asked an audience how many legs a dog has if you count the tail as a leg. When they answered “five,” Lincoln told them that the answer was four. The fact that you called the tail a leg did not make it a leg.

This program saves approx. $40/day over incarceration. This graduating class represents $350K in savings to the taxpayer, with an at-risk population that is now less likely to re-offend. A graduate gave a commencement address with his key phrase, “No more excuses”.

The Tifton DRC celebrated its 24th Commencement yesterday evening with 33 Graduates! Special thanks to Rep. @ClayPirkle for attending the ceremony and to all who took part. We're so proud of those who have put in the hard work and are investing in themselves and in their future.

This is what got Mario Lopez in trouble??? We live in crazy times. Young kids clearly are not mature enough to make these types of decisions about their identity and it’s ridiculous that we must now pretend otherwise to appease a bunch of insane activists.

Let’s all get something straight here. It’s not hypocritical to believe murderers should get the death penalty and unborn babies shouldn’t. It is hypocritical to believe murderers shouldn’t get the death penalty but unborn babies should.
