At least 15 local governments in the state including Atlanta, Augusta and the governor's hometown of Athens-Clarke County have enforced a mask mandate after Kemp focused on encouraging people to voluntarily wear masks." Interestingly (as GA resident), he didn't sue any of the other mayors that implemented long before Bottoms. Also interestingly, our neighbor Alabama's governor actually DID implement a statewide mask mandate. <cite>Ruvan22 posted [p:942230309] in Georgia go...
