The Republican Attorney General of Arizona invited Vice-President Kamala Harris to visit the Arizona border and observe firsthand the crisis at the state’s border. That invitation was issued last month. Since then, Kamala, the designated border czar, has not taken him up on the offer. Now the attorney general, Mark Brnovich, says it’s time to fire Kamala as border czar.
Brnovich rightly points out that Kamala finds time in her busy schedule to travel to other states, just not those on the Mexican border. She does travel to her home state of California but doesn’t bother to go to that state’s border either. Brnovich says it is insulting to Americans in border states to be ignored, especially during this crisis which is a historic level. The Biden administration is being tested and it is failing miserably.

Thursday morning Georgia Governor Brian Kemp appeared on FOX news announcing that the state will end the $300 federal weekly jobless payments. Those payments were in addition to the pandemic unemployment checks.
The governor hopes this move will give residents a push to get back out into the workforce.
“We’ve got to get more people in the work force. We have a record number of jobs in Georgia. Georgia is open for business!” said Kemp.
The decision to end the $300 weekly federal unemployment will take effect in late June. For those still receiving unemployment benefits, you will still receive state jobless benefits up to $365 per week.

SAVANNAH, Ga. (WTOC) - A new law in Georgia addresses funding for charter schools. A Savannah school leader was there as the governor provided what he says is needed support.
With Senate Bill 59 officially signed by Georgia Governor Brian Kemp, leaders at the Savannah Classical Academy say it not only helps their staff but also the students.
“It is a win and it’s proof that there’s a strong need and desire for charter schools in Georgia. There’s legislative support, there’s community support and we’re happy to see that came out in this past legislative session that charters are here to stay,” Savannah Classical Academy Executive Director Barry Lollis said.
