Gov. Brian Kemp has pledged to make Georgia the e-mobility capital of the world. In recent years, Kemp provided billions of dollars in incentives to lure automakers Hyundai, Kia and the startup Rivian to the state. However, a new report from Politico shows some Georgians are excited about the well-paying EV jobs, but they’re suspicious of electric vehicles. Reporter David Ferris from Politico's Energy and Environment News discusses the report and explains Georgians’ conflicted relationship with electric vehicles.

Also, at least two women have died after not having access to abortion care in Georgia. And a new investigative report published by ProPublica tells the story of one of the women, Amber Nicole Thurman. Kavitha Surana, a reporter at ProPublica, discusses her article and the ongoing implications of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade in 2022.
