Electing progressives would transform Georgia<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m writing to address Georgia \u201cimmigration.\u201d No, I don\u2019t mean the illegal immigrants from other countries but the legal immigrants who come to Georgia from states like New York, Illinois, Connecticut, New Jersey, etc.<\/p>\n

Just for the record, I spend six months a year in New York and six months in Savannah. Weather is obviously a factor, but let me remind you of some the things that I have to continue to put up with in New York that you left behind when you became Georgia residents.<\/p>\n

They include high taxes; high gas prices; billions in state budget deficits; crippling government regulations; sanctuary cities; massive welfare programs; severe restrictions on owning a firearm; abortion on demand up to the moment of birth, no bail required release for criminals; and in New York the inability to get a \u201cTrusted Traveler\u201d pass because the governor thinks it\u2019s more important to protect illegal aliens than the people who elected him<\/p>\n

As the saying goes, \u201cstupid is as stupid does.\u201d If you voted for progressive Democrats at your previous address, by all means do it in Georgia. it may take a couple of elections, but you\u2019ll eventually get Georgia to look — and cost — like the place you left.<\/p>\n
