Trump signs Laken Riley Act and Georgia schools eye opting out of Homestead Exemption

from WABE's Week In Review · host WABE

We have more on President Donald Trump signing the Laken Riley Act into federal law as he was surrounded by the late Georgia nursing student's family this week. Plus, Democrats in the state legislature are making another attempt to extend health coverage to more Georgians under Medicaid, and this time, four Republicans have already signed on. Also, we look at the impact on Georgia homeowners as half of the state's 180 school districts have started the legal process to opt out of the Homestead Exemption law,  according to a survey from the Georgia School Superintendents Association.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
