It’s up to you. It really is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Senate race in your state means EVERYTHING to Georgia, and to all Americans who are suffering during this pandemic. The Republican Senate, led by Mitch McConnell, has blocked every good thing that the People’s House has tried to do for this country in our time of great need. But your two Senate seats can change that. Those two seats can mean the difference between getting a $2000 check each month, and not getting anything more from our government to help the country through this pandemic. It can mean EVERYTHING to people who are on their literal last dollar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And GEORGIA gets to decide. Will our country get help, or will Moscow Mitch and a small minority of rich white assholes in the Republican Party deny everyone else the help they truly need.
You get to decide, Georgia. History will remember your choice. Please vote to help America\u2026and not just the rich white pricks who giggle at the words ‘trickle down’ over cocktails at the club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks for reading all the way to the bottom. If you agree, please feel free to share, along with your own two cents. ~jg<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
