Avatar photo by Maggie Lee September 30th, 2025September 30th, 2025 Why you can trust The Current

Millions in federal money is still set to flow to Georgia’s program for building EV charging stations on highways that lack the infrastructure.  But an updated plan mandated by the Trump administration erases talk of equity and safety.

Georgia Ports Authority says it won’t fund $1B-plus Savannah bridge replacement

by Adam Van Brimmer/Atlanta Journal-Constitution May 23rd, 2024May 23rd, 2024 Why you can trust The Current
Charles Dawson, a 100% disabled veteran who served with the 101st Airborne and was exposed to the burn pits, no longer gets his medications from the VA because of sediment piling up in front of his mailbox. The post office said it can't deliver until the problem is fixed. The City of Midway owns the road and Liberty County grades it, but a permanent fix is needed. Dawson has sought city, county, state, and federal help, to no avail.
