My condolences go out to MN Rep Melissa Hortman, MN Sen John Hoffman, their families, and all those grieving this heinous act of violence. When we seek elected office, we agree to make various sacrifices. However, safety in one's own home is not a sacrifice that anyone should be required to make.

Join us at the 2025 SAFSF Forum in New Mexico! We're excited to have GA Senator @kimforgeorgia.bsky.social and @kendrakimbirauskas.bsky.social speaking on behalf of SiX from June 9 to 12 on State Leadership in Advancing Agricultural Policy Amid Federal Uncertainty. Hope to see you there!

“Nobody was there to teach me how to govern, until I found @stateinnovation.org” Watch GA Sen. & SiX SVP @kimforgeorgia.bsky.social talk about how SiX helps leaders govern with their communities, not just for them, with @joesudbay.bsky.social for @siriusxmprog.bsky.social #StatePower

This week on State of the States, no matter hoosier favorite candidate, you're in for a peach of a time with @joesudbay.bsky.social and guests @kimforgeorgia.bsky.social and @INHouseDemocrats.bsky.social Leader Phil GiaQuinta! Tomorrow @ 9am East, Replays All Weekend & Always on the SiriusXM App!

Across the country, state lawmakers like @kimforgeorgia.bsky.social, IA Rep. Megan Srinivas, @noelframe.bsky.social, and WI Rep. Sylvia Ortiz-Velez are delivering real results for communities, especially when others fall short. 🔗 Read more: six.community/press-100-days #StatePower

Session's a wrap... total chaos. The fight to kill bad bills continues next year... #gapol

BAD BILL ALERT: Senate Republicans have waited literally 'til the 11th hour to unleash HB 127, which, if passed, would ban DEI programs and initiatives in schools. The bill initially offered teachers more sick leave days. Republicans deleted that part.

Senate Republicans have waited until the Gold Dome is virtually clear of advocates and the public... to throw the anti-DEI bill back up for a vote. 10:30 at night, after 12+ hours on the floor.

The Dem Caucus will always vote against bad election bills. #23Strong

Thank you Senator Cory Booker for your incredible act last night into this morning as you stand up for all of us. Thank you for using your voice and the tools you have to make a difference.

So excited to see this bill move forward in the Senate. This issue is one I'm deeply passionate about, and the folks at @gfadp.bsky.social are one of the reasons I ran for office.

GOOD BILL PASSED: SB 170 from @kimforgeorgia.bsky.social requires the Department of Community Health to establish a grant program to fund rural hospitals in purchasing and installing backup generators to ensure continued operation during a state of emergency.

#GaPol senators are really on a roll today. After stripping funding for kids in poverty from the budget, they just stripped ( #HB127) which would increase accumulated leave for teachers to replace it with a broad sweeping DEI Ban #SB120 which would defund schools and universities across the state.

Senate Committee on Education & Youth.... Anti-DEI bill has been shoved in a different bill. This committee hearing is a total shame. Not letting the public talk, limiting Democrat committee members from asking questions..

Passed House committee, now onto House floor 🤞🏻

Yesterday, my colleagues decided to honor our current president... a direct slap in the face to my beautifully diverse District 41.

My SB 170 up next in House Govt Affairs Subcommittee meeting. #endhomelessness

SB 170: creating an Interagency Council on Homelessness Up on the Senate floor!

TOMORROW: We need you to #StandWithUs and help speak up for working-class Georgians! We have one more chance to make a final push and be heard before Crossover Day ends. Join us and fight for our civil rights, healthcare, education, and a lower cost of living. #gapol

While we've been fighting tooth and nail on the state level... Congressional Dems held the line today and successfully defeated an anti-trans bill. Your calls and messages TRULY matter- both before AND after a vote (as she posts later- a little thanks goes a long way).

"I know this is not politically popular, but I stand here today urging my colleagues, to vote no on this bill, as a sign of your humanity," @kimforgeorgia.bsky.social on SB 185, the GOP's most recent attempt at attacking the trans community. #gapol

My thoughts on today's floor vote on SB30, which bans puberty blockers for our trans youth. We will keep fighting for the lives of ALL Georgians.

Come down to the Dome on Crossover to help us show Georgians what's really been happening at the Capitol this session.

Senate Committee on Regulated Industries getting started... my SB 142 creating a pathway for international medical graduates is up next!

Committee on Economic Development and Tourism getting started bright and early... My SB251 "Junk Fees" is up first.

Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs getting started... my bill SB 170 is up next.

📢 QUICK ACTION ALERT! 📢 My SB 170, creating a unified, state-wide council to respond to the homelessness crisis, is up in committee TODAY! Make your calls and write your emails to the members of the Government Affairs committee in support of SB 170!

📢 HEARING ALERT 📢 Call to Action: Head to the Capitol (room 450) tomorrow at 11am to pack the committee room in support of SB 142!

Another attack on a vulnerable minority.

For those wondering why we aren't "being more proactive"... we're trying and getting blocked at every door.

CDC in the house today! Thank you to @sairaforgeorgia.bsky.social for hosting this crucially important press conference.

Seriously incredible resource.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

TOMORROW MORNING!!!!

Bernie Sanders: "The struggle against Trump, the struggle against oligarchy, which is led by Elon Musk ... that's not gonna be won here in Capitol Hill. It's gonna be won by millions of people all over this country standing up and saying, 'we fought and died for democracy.'"

Wishing I could join my fellow Georgians today. Back tomorrow to pick up where we left off on Thursday... stay tuned for legislative calls-to-action this week.

I will continue to hold hope that my colleagues will evolve, just as they've evolved before. We will not erase our youth's existence.

"How do regimes manage to impose minority rule on enormous populations? By getting the majority to give up. Don’t do that."

Jumping on board to a happier place than twitterland! As we watch the chaos unfold, check out some tips for how to get involved...
