HB 1118 increases maternal leave for public employees. A bipartisan step forward for Georgia’s working families. #Gapol 🧵 (1/2)
We’ve worked hard & SB 148 is still going ! It improves paid leave flexibility for teachers & school staff, supports outdoor learning & expands life-saving defibrillators in schools.
Two wins on the GVA 2026 March Madness scoreboard. 🏆🏀

Big win for voting access in Georgia. 🧵
SB 568 included several provisions that would have created new barriers to voting.
Most notably: limiting access to early voting locations for voters.

BREAKING LATE NIGHT CROSSOVER DAY UPDATE: Senate Bill 568 fails to pass the Georgia State Senate. #gapol
It would mandate voters only have one early voting location, switch Georgia to hand-marked ballots for the November elections and more. bit.ly/4s6ujpq

From the civil rights movement to Ambassadors, musicians, athletes, and inventors known around the world, Georgia is home to some of the most consequential chapters of and contributors to Black history.
This #BlackHistoryMonth, I encourage all Georgians to reflect on those gifts and celebrate the men and women of the past and present who make Georgia an even better place to call home.

just a reminder that united healthcare and other health insurers are not "healthcare" companies. they are financial services companies created to generate profits by limiting patients' access to care.

I often hear folks say, “Donald Trump sent me a check during the pandemic.”
I want to make sure you understand this: Congress sent you a check. By the way, Joe Biden also sent you a check during the pandemic, just like I gave people relief during the Great Recession. The difference is that we didn’t put our names on it – because it wasn’t about feeding our egos or advancing our politics, it was about helping people.
So don’t be giving him credit for that. And don’t give him your vote, either. There’s only one candidate in this election who cares about you, and that’s Kamala Harris.

Happy birthday to my friend @KamalaHarris! She has spent her life fighting on behalf of people who need a voice and a chance—now it’s our turn to help elect her as our next president. Make sure you're ready to vote at IWillVote.com.
