President Trump heads to Georgia this afternoon

Rapid Response

President Trump heads back to Georgia this afternoon to talk about how Republicans have made life better for working Georgians so far.

 

Bad news for Jon Ossoff — who is up for reelection this year — and just last night described America as a "repressive" society.

 

 

Under President Trump and Republicans' leadership:  

  • Georgia’s average gas price is down 40% (-$1.79) since its high of nearly $4.50 per gallon under Biden
  • Georgians will save an average of $3,086 on their taxes this year thanks to the Working Families Tax Cuts
  • Georgians could see their wages rise up to $6,700 over the next four years
  • 204,000 Georgia jobs will be protected over the next four years
  • ICE has arrested hundreds of criminal illegal aliens off of Georgia’s streets
  • Georgia is receiving a $218,862,170 investment in rural health care 
  • More than $1 billion in FEMA funding is now available to communities and healthcare facilities in Georgia 
  • The average home prices in Georgia are down over the past year
  • As part of Japan’s $550 billion investment pledge, Japan is moving forward with creating a synthetic diamond grit facility in Georgia
  • Amazon Web Services announced plans to invest an estimated $11 billion to expand its infrastructure in Georgia, expected to create at least 550 new high-skilled jobs
  • Salesforce is investing $15 million to expand its Georgia presence, creating over 250 new jobs
  • JS Link announced a $223 million investment to establish a rare earth magnet plant in Georgia, expected to create approximately 520 new jobs

In contrast, Ossoff:

Georgians gave Ossoff six years to work in their interest, and he refused at every step.
