- Advocates for gun safety measures cheer Georgia governor’s veto
Georgia Governor Brian Kemp vetoed a bill that would have blocked local governments from punishing motorists for unsecured firearms in vehicles. The bill, Senate Bill 204, targeted ordinances like one in Savannah imposing fines for leaving guns in unlocked cars. Kemp argued the bill could lead to lawsuits against law enforcement, while advocates celebrated the veto as a victory for local gun safety measures.
