Associated Press: “Back home, Georgia’s first Black senator is more subtle, pitching a ‘comprehensive view of infrastructure’ and avoiding talk of his reelection fight already looming just months after he won a January special election runoff with Senate control at stake.”
“Indeed, the preacher-turned-politician spent the Independence Day recess hopscotching from an inland port in the conservative Appalachian foothills to liberal Atlanta’s urban microbreweries and sprawling public hospital, then the suburban defense contractors in between. At each stop, he highlighted the federal money he’s routed — or is trying to route — to his state for health care, national security research, rural broadband and urban walking paths, among other projects.”
