We have been made aware. Atlanta Fire Rescue is going out with detectors to various spots east to see what is in the air. The assumption is a change of the wind direction blowing some of the Conyers fire residuals our way. We will push out messaging as we get more info.

Fourteen years ago, when the big three automakers were struggling to stay afloat, my administration and the American people stepped in to support them. So did the auto workers in the UAW who sacrificed pay and benefits to help get the companies back on their feet. Now that our carmakers are enjoying robust profits, it’s time to do right by those same workers so the industry can emerge more united and competitive than ever.

Last year, while I didn't get an invite to talk about #1619Project from the Essence Festival, @BaldwinBooks hosted me that weekend for an amazing conversation at his jewel of a bookstore. To stop him from hosting Black authors this wkend is just shameful. nola.com/entertainment_life/…

This is such a terrible tragedy and it unfortunately supports some very damning data. Black women are 3x more likely to die in childbirth than their white peers, and while economic disparities are an issue, it is public health crisis largely created by the fact Black women are often mistreated in the health care industry.
The U.S. Olympic track star Tori Bowie died during childbirth in May, according to an autopsy report shared with The New York Times. The autopsy lists respiratory distress and eclampsia as possible complications.

“The degree of civilization in a society can be judged by entering its prisons.” If GA was a country we would have 1 of the the highest incarceration rates in the world.
Lashawn Thompson did not deserve to die like this. Nobody should die in jail.
