From a $27.2 billion budget to adoption reform to making the pecan the state nut, more than 300 bills and resolutions made their way to Gov. Brian Kemp's desk from the 2021 legislative session — and only one bill was vetoed.
Georgia election officials are already grappling with the effects of a 98-page voting law signed by Kemp in late March, and at various press conferences around Georgia the governor touted everything from adoption reform to allowing to-go cocktails.
