In a unanimous 9-0 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned a lower court’s decision last year to limit access to the medical abortion pill, Mifepristone. As of 2023, medical abortions now account for 63% of all abortions in the country.

HAPPENING NOW: We’re honoring the 60th anniversary of the March on Washington and launching our official policy agenda, the Young People’s Platform. We know that politicians won’t save us. We save ourselves. #gapol #webuildthefuture

Imagine having your state's election interfered with and still being willing to support the man who led the charge in his presidential bid. Is this about party loyalty or protecting democracy? Which is it? #gapol

The 2020 election in Georgia was not stolen. For nearly three years now, anyone with evidence of fraud has failed to come forward - under oath - and prove anything in a court of law. Our elections in Georgia are secure, accessible, and fair and will continue to be as long as I am governor. The future of our country is at stake in 2024 and that must be our focus.

Working families being able to afford quality childcare to be able to go to work is a value that works for all Georgians. #ChildcareforAllGA #GAValuesWorkingFamilies #GeorgiaValues
Progress Georgia@progress4_ga
A year of child care in Georgia costs $8530 and is going up. Families have enough rising costs and shouldn’t have to sacrifice quality care for their children just to go to work. #ChildcareForAllGA #SupportWorkingFamiliesGA
