The March 24th broadcast begins with analysis over the voter defeat of the Gwinnett County MARTA contract. Debate then kicks into high gear over Atlanta Mayor Keisha Bottoms’ campaign team getting paid for jobs (including one at the airport) during the last month of her predecessor’s administration, with the City Council pushing back. Another topic is the tying together of a bill establishing a state airport authority over Hartsfield-Jackson and the airline fuel tax exemption. Then debate swirls over the abortion “heartbeat” bill as well a House panel making recommendations on lawmaker court delays. And panelists speculate on the political future of Democrat Stacey Abrams.
