On the last Statewide Tele-Town Hall we focused on legislative action and building for the future.  We have a final legislative call to action to ask Governor Kemp to sign SB244 to allow victims of prosecutorial misconduct to recover expenses, and HB113 to ban purchasing goods from adversarial countries.  We learned that HB113 was signed into law on Friday, May 9th. And Garland filled us in on his visit to Louisiana which is the first state set to respond to President Trump’s call to the States to ban unverifiable voting systems.  

In addition, attorney Catherine Bernard informed us about alarming cases of parental deprivation of rights in cases when DFCS is separating families and wrongly accusing parents of abuse.  See the reports from families in Gordon County and Forsyth County.  She highlighted the importance of SB259, which would allow parents a second medical opinion in parental abuse cases.  And Dr. Tiffany Flock wrapped up our legislative updates with an action alert to urge Governor Kemp to veto SB144, the Pesticide Liability Protection Bill. Despite great efforts asking Governor Kemp to veto this bill, SB144 was signed on Monday, May 12th.

The Constitution Party of Georgia recognizes that in addition to taking a stand today we must build and equip the next generation in the Christian faith, applying the Lordship of Jesus Christ to every area of life and thought to impact lives and communities across Georgia.  Michael Thiessen joined us to share how the Ezra Institute is doing just that in the U.S., Canada, and the United Kingdom.  Along with highlighting their conferences and educational resources he told us about the Worldview Youth Academy, a week-long program designed to equip students to know, defend and apply their faith in the midst of the intellectual and practical challenges of our day.
