Lawmakers move legal sports betting forward and new legislation could keep more people in jail longer

from WABE's Week In Review · host WABE

A bill to legalize sports betting passed in the Georgia state senate but will now require a constitutional amendment. Plus, Senate Bill 63 aims to crack down on crime by banning judges from ordering what's called an "unsecured judicial release" for people accused of a variety of crimes. And Governor Brian Kemp has approved a controversial new map for the upcoming Cobb County school board elections. Also, we look at the hundreds of millions of dollars in opioid settlement money coming into Georgia and how it could all be spent.
