We need you to keep help Georgia blue

John, It's no coincidence that after Black voters showed up in record turnout to elect Rev. Raphael Warnock -- Georgia Republicans immediately tried everything in their power to rush to pass waves of new laws to suppress our votes. Sen. Rev. Raphael Warnock said it be…
