Hear gubernatorial hopefuls outline plans to ease the financial strain facing Georgians — from housing and child care to wages, utility bills and property taxes. The hosts explain why both parties see economic pressure as the top concern heading into 2026, how Georgia’s surplus has sparked new policy ideas, and what candidates are signaling about their priorities if elected.
