ATLANTA – Today, Speaker of the House Jon Burns (R-Newington) issued the following statement:
“Over the weekend, we saw vile acts of hatred in Macon and near Marietta. Hate has no place in Georgia. I join with Governor Kemp and Lt. Governor Jones in condemning these antisemitic acts.
“I am proud that this past session, the Georgia House of Representatives passed legislation to define antisemitism in state law. It is apparent we must get that bill to Governor Kemp’s desk next session.”
