Rep Wade, we’re friends, I like and respect you, but I fail to understand how a patient living in the coverage gap without health insurance, with their nose pressed against the window of any new hospital, will be able to substantively avail themselves of the care offered inside.

Just a reminder: The GA GOP blocked Medicaid expansion to support Kemp’s failed "Pathways to Coverage" health program that has enrolled less than 3,500 Georgians while costing taxpayers $26M. 90% of which has gone to admin fees instead of health care for Georgians who need it.
GA has cut off 504,000+ people from Medicaid health coverage just for administrative issues, with another 93,000 people deemed ineligible. 1.4 million do not have health insurance-the third highest in the country. Morally wrong and economically disastrous. wabe.org/more-than-a-ha…
In 2022, we waited 90 minutes to vote for the Senate runoff (with @SenatorWarnock himself standing in line behind us the whole time). And with the new runoff periods, that was exactly by design #gapol

“[Telling my story] has helped me shed that shame and it has helped me find a voice that I will continue to use until we restore reproductive freedom here in Georgia.” - Rep. Shea Roberts (@sheaforgeorgia) politico.com/news/2024/03/2…
🧵(1/6) Last night, the Georgia state legislature adjourned its 2024 legislative session without any anti-LGBTQ measures passing. Advocates successfully defeated nearly 20 bills intended to restrict the health, rights and well-being of Georgia’s LGBTQ community.
Georgia State Representative @PhilForGeorgia, more importantly our Papa, will complete his first term in office today! 🧵 It is challenging being in the minority party, yet that has not stopped him from pushing forward. In his first term he has:
Meeting HD 98er Jean, one of a few constituents here using their voices on a big day. His issues: public safety & anti-immigrant measures that'll actually harm that safety inc. victims, & better roads, something we’ve worked on, but have more to do! Thanks to AAAJ for organizing!
Tried everything I could think of to work out a compromise so Wrongful Conviction Compensation legislation could move. I did not succeed. I’m disappointed for the innocent and for their families. The Senate did not pass any of the individual resolutions or the reform bill.
#SineDie. Spent 18 hours at the Capitol advocating for my constituents and Georgia, successfully blocking unfavorable legislation and allocating resources for law enforcement, teachers, and nurses. #mughal2024 #mughalforgeorgia #mughalforhd105 #publicsafety #publicpolicy #gapol
GREAT NEWS! Big wins for early childhood education on #SineDie in the final FY25 budget, including nearly $100 million increase for Georgia's Lottery-funded Pre-K and nearly $10 million for Georgia's Childcare & Parent Services (CAPS) Program. Thanks to all of the champions in…
This term we blocked 4 Alien Land Law bills in the GA legislature. But this week, one, SB420, passed. Not only will it have a discriminatory effect on AAPI Georgians, it hurts the international business ties GA needs. It’s not too late to stop it. Tell Gov Kemp to VETO SB420.
We will have a full statement in the morning, but for now, from the Capitol crew at Georgia Equality, we have adjourned for the year and successfully DEFEATED ALL ANTI-LGBTQ LEGISLATION in Georgia!!
I’ve spent the last two legislative days glued to the livestream of the chamber across the hall, waiting for the safe storage tax credit bill—addressing the #1 cause of death in children and teens in the U.S.—to get a vote before time ran out. But I guess this was important too.

.@GAHouseDems worked hard all legislative session to fully expand Medicaid and put health care in reach for almost half a million Georgians. The Georgia GOP blocked it. wsbtv.com/news/local/atl…
WATCH: Yesterday, @GAHouseDems called out Republicans for BLOCKING Medicaid Expansion AGAIN. For over a decade, Republicans have chosen politics over people, leaving BILLIONS of federal $$$ on the table. 500,000 Georgians can’t afford to go another year w/o healthcare. #gapol
“Tell me how I’m supposed to explain to my patients that the more important thing to Republican lawmakers than taking care of them and their families…is to avoid embarrassing Governor Kemp.” My remarks on the GOP legislature’s failure, yet again, to fully expand Medicaid in GA.
Pushing policy w/a final set of bills: 1) for GA Technology Authority to create one secure website where ppl can upload docs frequently asked for by GA gov’t programs, 2) creating GeorgiaCorps for early/childcare, 3) prohibiting local gov’t NDAs w/private entities, 4) urging ...
