  • Summary

  • Governor Brian Kemp’s push to limit large jury awards is getting a major financial boost, with a company pledging $1 million in ads to help pass the measure this session. On today’s episode of Politically Georgia, hosts Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy break down the high-stakes fight over legal reform. State Senator Josh McLaurin, a lawyer and vocal opponent of the bill, explains why he believes the proposal favors businesses over everyday Georgians. We are also joined by Georgia ACLU’s Chris Bruce to examine President Trump’s latest executive orders and how the newest wave of federal immigration operations is impacting communities across the state. Plus, tensions flared in the Senate as Georgia Senator Raphael Warnock and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. clashed over Kennedy’s past statements on the CDC. And we take a look at the confirmation of former U.S. Senator Kelly Loeffler.
