A major development regarding Georgia’s 2020 presidential election interference case, the Georgia Court of Appeals has decided to hear an appeal of a previous ruling that allowed Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to stay on the case. WABE politics reporter Sam Gringlas reports on the latest.

 

Plus, Natalie Foster is president and co-founder of the Economic Security Project. She discusses her new book, “The Guarantee: Inside the Fight for America’s Next Economy.” The book explores what it would look like if all Americans were guaranteed housing, health care, a college education, dignified work, family care, an inheritance, and a stable income.
