Description

Governor Kemp has proposed the largest budget in state history. So how does Georgia plan to spend $30.2 billion? In this episode of the Politically Georgia podcast, Atlanta Journal-Constitution political insider Greg Bluestein is joined by AJC assistant senior editor and state budget expert James Salzer to explain where the money is going.
Listen to hear why Salzer says this budget is like “Governor Kemp is in a Mardi Gras parade throwing out candy to people because there’s so much available in this budget.” Plus, why there’s so much money going to education and prisons.
