One candidate wants this, the other wants that, but no matter who wins the race for Georgia’s next governor in November, it’s become clear that big changes are likely ahead for the state’s struggling Medicaid program. #gapol #gapolitics

I hope if you are anywhere near Macon on Sunday, you'll consider joining us for this town hall. As Sen. Kay Kirkpatrick told us earlier this year, “we need more people who care about pedestrian and bike safety." Let's work together to find solutions. #gapol
Every day, someone in Georgia risks their life just crossing the street. On Sept. 20, we're bringing together the people who want to change that — and we want you to be a part of the solution. Please join us!
