Now happening: Debate is beginning at the Georgia House over a GOP proposal to require ID for absentee voting, curb the use of ballot drop boxes and limit weekend early voting hours. #gapol
The sponsor, GOP Rep. Barry Fleming, is using phrases like “common-sense” and “restoring confidence” and “security measures” to frame a measure that House Democrats plan to oppose in unison as a sweeping rollback in voting rights. #gapol
Rep. Calvin Smyre, Dean of the Georgia House and one of the most respected people in this building: “This is a step in the wrong direction. I strongly believe it’s time that we encourage every citizen to participate in the truest sense of citizenship - and that’s voting.” #gapol

The Jolt: Georgia Democrats and their allies play hardball to derail GOP voting restrictions as House lawmakers prepare to vote on new limits. A closer look at the multilayered campaign: #gapol ajc.com/politics/polit…
“Now is the time for action.” Georgia NAACP president @iMajorWish is urging the state’s corporate giants to speak out against GOP voting restriction proposals. #gapol

Fulton DA Fani Willis tells @maddow the criminal investigation into Trump’s efforts to overturn Georgia’s election “seems that it will go past just this one phone call” to Secretary of State Raffensperger. #gapol
Willis: “What I know about investigations is they're kind of like peeling back an onion. And as you go through each layer, you learn different things. To be a responsible prosecutor, you must look at all those things in an investigation, to be fair to everyone involved.” #gapol

Georgia Republicans are preparing for a potential rematch between @GovKemp and @StaceyAbrams with the launch today of a “Stop Stacey” group aimed at thwarting her likely 2022 bid. #gapol ajc.com/politics/polit…

.@staceyabrams' top aide responds: "Rather than a desperate distraction, perhaps they can #StartServingGeorgians." #gapol
