Young, Reed & Schools on the Better Georgia Podcast

We are getting closer and closer to the election, and here at Better Georgia we have been hard at work campaigning against the school takeover in Georgia. Today we’re talking about recent developments in this election season, specifically Kasim Reed’s recent opposition of OSD, his relationship with Gov. Deal, other important endorsements for the “No School Takeover” campaign, and the judiciary watchdog amendment that’s on the ballot.
