Hazard lights make it harder for other drivers to see and makes it harder for other drivers to tell if you are braking or signaling. Use headlights and reduce speed instead. #GwinnettPD #Police #TrafficTuesday

This should be national news. First new reactor in three decades and we’re gonna need a lot more across the country if we want to reduce emissions. Congrats to Georgia Power on this milestone.

Did you know until 1950, all three branches of Georgia state government were located in the capitol building? Thanks to the Georgia General Assembly, legislative staffers got an opportunity to learn its incredible history at yesterday's capitol tour as part of #StaffHubATL.
