BREAKING: The Senate just blocked a bill that would have renewed ICE's budget without real, enforceable changes. This is a direct result of hundreds of thousands of people across the nation demanding that our Senators vote no.

This would presumably explain some pictures of ICE vehicles coming to Atlanta that have been making the rounds.

“The American people demand and deserve secure borders. The American people also believe every human being should be treated with dignity and respect, and these reports of unacceptable abuse and mistreatment shock the conscience and demand accountability.” –Sen. Ossoff www.ajc.com/news/2026/01...

Stop ICE💪 Our Georgia senators oppose DHS funding. "This cannot be America..." Senator Ossoff “...To see this kind of state violence is not only to witness the killing of a human being but the spiraling spiritual death of a nation...” Senator Warnock

A partial federal government shutdown appeared Sunday to unexpectedly be on the horizon, after another fatal shooting by federal immigration agents in Minneapolis led key U.S. Senate Democrats to say they will oppose a spending package that includes immigration enforcement funds.

ICE and CBP death squads are killing innocent people, terrorizing our communities, and violating our constitutional rights — and the House just voted to give them more money. Demand that your senators use their upcoming vote on the DHS funding bill to rein in the regime’s secret police.

There’s a rally going on in Boston rn and they’re chanting “we’re not cold, we’re not afraid, MN taught us to be brave!” and I might cry

School vouchers will benefit well-off families and hurt public schools in the state. This will not improve Georgia's educational status which was ranked by the Annie E. Casey Foundation as 39th in the country, and 42nd in supporting families.

It's worth tracking the "tax relief" proposals being floated this legislative session. Many are regressive taxes.

A useful overview of Georgia's representative elections for this year.

To clarify it is not closed. Drastically reduced? YES! Russ Vought had most of the staff RIFed in 2025. RFK Jr is consolidating all HHS FOIA offices from across agencies into one. It is a hot mess. We are glad the FOIA impacts are getting attention. Dig into data at www.CDCdataproject.org

Congress can freeze out funding for ICE in 2 weeks — but only if Democrats are a unified opposition. To make that happen, we must flood their offices with calls to demand ICE Out For Good. Call your senators: indivisible.org/ice-out-sena... Call your representative: indivisible.org/ice-out-hous...

Georgia House speaker says the legislature will propose legislation to eliminate the homestead exemption on property taxes, replacing it with ... something else. He cites the 300 local governments which opted out of the state’s reforms last year. The issue is hideously complex.

The first bill of the session to pass, this was a punishment of Savannah for passing an ordinance restricting storage of firearms in vehicles.

The commission could not, and did not, elaborate on the resolution and simply moved on to the rest of its agenda. Currently, all DeKalb County Commissioners are Democrats.

🪦 January 16 marks one year since Cornelius Taylor was killed during a city-led encampment sweep in Atlanta. This week there are opportunities to recognize Cornelius Taylor, as well as to be involved with mutual aid. Please consider coming out to support!

Georgia Senate Democrats unveiled a raft of proposed bills Tuesday that they say will protect Georgians from what they characterized as a rogue federal government using immigration enforcement to terrorize citizens. Story by @journalistross.bsky.social.

Limits to flipping deep red seats in Georgia as we can see with Scott Sanders receiving only 28.6% of the special election vote in District 23. However, we need to keep investing resources for Democratic candidates, recognizing that Republican margins have thinned.
