MARTA bucks Dickens on station delay and Georgia's aged-out foster kids missing out on money

from WABE's Week In Review · host WABE

MARTA officials say the transit agency will move forward with a renovation of the Five Points station in downtown Atlanta set to begin next month, despite a call from Mayor Andre Dickens to pause the project. Plus a national nonprofit helping to bail poor and low-income people out of jail is leaving Georgia, blaming a controversial new state law set to go into effect next month. And local environmental groups want the Atlanta Regional Commission to challenge the city of Atlanta's plans for its controversial Public Safety Training Center. Also, WABE and Propublica investigate why Georgia is not obtaining federal funds to help those who have aged out of foster care.
