Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast! On today’s show we recap the last day of the 2024 legislative session – what got through both chambers, what didn’t, and what we learned about the state of politics in Georgia.

In short, a lot of the cultural war bills got left on the cutting room floor and the bills that most Georgians say they care about it, didn’t. As Speaker Jon Burns said, “You know, some folks choose politics. The House chooses results.”

We saw pay raises for teachers and police, income and property tax cuts, a bill involving immigration detention requirements, $6,500 vouchers for students to attend private schools and more.

In other news, Georgia GOP Vice Chair Brian Pritchard was found guilty of violating state election laws and voting illegally 9 times. GOP Chair Josh McKoon has called for his resignation, but Pritchard is standing resolute.

Overhyped/Underhyped, Play-Along-At-Home and much more on today’s jam packed episode.
