Political Breakfast from WABE

Talking tort reform, Eggs and Issues ahead of 2025 Legislative Session


Listen Later

This week the Political Breakfast team talks tort reform, and how Georgia Governor Brian Kemp is making this a top priority during the 2025 legislative session. That starts in just a few weeks after the new year.

Kemp has been bringing it up at gatherings like the Georgia Chamber of Commerce's Congressional Luncheon for years. 

He told lawmakers in 2023 that the laws on our books make it "too easy to bring frivolous lawsuits against Georgia business owners" which eventually drives-up the price of insurance and stops "new, good-paying jobs from ever coming to communities that need them the most."

Kemp brought it up again recently to state lawmakers.

Republican strategist Brian Robinson and Democratic strategist Tharon Johnson and host Lisa Rayam weigh-in on how this affects average Georgians and small-business owners, not just large corporations and insurance companies.
