Kemp says Georgia will not delay primary to redraw districts but calls for new lines by 2028

from WABE's Week In Review · host WABE

Georgia Governor Brian Kemp says he will not delay the May 19th party primaries to allow for a special session to redraw congressional and state legislative lines following the controversial US Supreme Court decision that advocates say weakens the Voting Rights Act. Plus, an environmental group is suing the City of Griffin for allowing polluted wastewater and sewage into a tributary of the Flint River, which serves as a drinking water source for south Metro Atlanta. Also, Georgia U-S Senator Jon Ossoff is calling on the federal government to provide adequate care for pregnant, unaccompanied children in the immigration system after reports they're all being routed to a Texas shelter. And we'll look into whether FIFA's new human rights requirements will protect people in Atlanta during the World Cup. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
