Why I’m Running for Georgia Senate

Conservative Republican

Dear Supporter -

Why I’m Running for Georgia Senate

Several months ago, when I launched my bid for the Georgia State Senate, I identified three critical issues facing Georgia – restoring election integrity (UNRESOLVED); banning Critical Race Theory (GA PASSED HB1084), and making Georgia a Constitutional Carry state (GA PASSED SB319).  While progress was made regarding a CRT ban and Constitutional Carry, much more work is needed to restore Election Integrity PLUS there are many more critical issues facing our state.

Serving the people of South East Georgia in the State House for three terms was the honor of my lifetime, and I'm ready to do it again as your next State Senator for Southeast Georgia.

Voter Integrity

It's no secret that there are many unresolved issues with the November 2020 election; we need to investigate and we need to investigate NOW. We need a 159 county Forensic Audit of the 2020 election.  Georgia voters deserve to know the truth!

Drop boxes, which never existed prior to 2020, are a documented source of 2020 voting corruption, and must be totally eliminated to stop fraudulent ballot-box stuffing.  We CAN and MUST improve on securing our sacred election systems.

When I'm elected to the State Senate, it will be one of my primary missions to ditch Dominion and return integrity to our elections. If we don't have true and fair elections, as voters, we’ve lost our only voice and ultimately, as Americans, we've lost our country.

Immigration Problems

Georgia’s huge illegal immigrant population, many who hold a Georgia Driver’s License that is virtually identical to that carried by legal citizens, is a threat to Georgia’s election integrity and puts unnecessary pressures on our state – schools, health care, and financially. When asked if the non-citizen license was acceptable to vote, a group of Election Supervisors said “Yes!”. This is a problem!

Georgia must block the forced-Federal expansion of our illegal immigration population and redesign the non-citizen Georgia Driver’s License, an effort I led during my prior service as State Representative.

State Income Tax and Controlling the Growth of State Government

I pledge to work on eliminating Georgia’s State Income Tax, controlling the growth of State Government and pushing back against Federal overreach into the everyday lives of Georgians.

Please always feel free to reach out to share your thoughts and opinions regarding legislative issues and concerns.

A Race to the Finish of the 2020 Session

Posted on News by Jeffrey Sewell · July 05, 2020 7:19 AM

On June 26, 2020, the General Assembly officially and finally adjourned the 60+ day COVID-19 suspended 2020 session, after passing the only Constitutionally required piece of business – a balanced $26 billion fiscal year 2021 state budget; Georgia’s new fiscal year begins on July 1, 2020. The new budget reflects a 10% overall reduction in spending to match Governor Kemp’s 10% projected reduction in state revenue.

Each year, the budget process begins with the Governor’s revenue projections; the balanced budget is then created based on that revenue forecast. As of just 45 days ago, and before May’s state revenues started being reported in early June, the Governor was forecasting a 14% decrease in revenue to the state equating to approximately $2.8 billion revenue drop.

Week 4 & 5 Legislative Updates for 2020

Posted on News by Jeffrey Sewell · February 19, 2020 9:43 AM

Week Ending 7th & 14th of February, 2020

Monday, February 3rd, was Legislative Day 10 and marked the start of the fourth week of the 2020 legislative session; the House and Senate adjourned unexpectedly early on Wednesday, February 5th to allow the House and Senate Appropriations Committees to deep dive into Gov. Kemp’s $28.1 billion budget.  The entire week from February 10th through the 14th was spent conducting Appropriations Committee hearings on the FY 2020 and FY 2021 budgets.

$26.1 Billion Governor’s Budget for FY 2021

Governor Kemp’s FY 2021 budget of Georgia State Funds is proposed at $28.1 billion. Not to confuse readers, but the proposed FY 2021 Total State Expenditures budget is $54.1 billion; the $26 billion amount above the Governor’s $28.1 billion State Funds budget reflects money coming from “Federal Funds and Grants” over which state leaders have little or no control. Regardless, the additional $26 billion is money that flows into our state. The Governor’s budget and the numbers I am referring to appear in the Governor’s proposed 2021 budget.

Week 3 Legislative Update for 2020

Posted on News by Jeffrey Sewell · February 07, 2020 6:49 PM

Week Ending January 31, 2020

During the third week, we were in session for all five days of the week; the fourth week, we adjourned unexpectedly early on Wednesday, February 5th, which I will report on in detail in next week’s newsletter.   The reason given for unexpected early adjournment on February 5th was so that House and Senate Appropriation Committees can finish work on tweaking the current year’s 2020 budget, and to work on the Governor’s proposed 2021 budget. The Georgia State Constitution requires that the State of Georgia produce a “balance budget” {Georgia State Constitution, Section IX, paragraph IV(b)} which is a very good thing!  In fact, the only constitutional requirement imposed on the annual 40-day convening of the General Assembly is to produce the “balance budget”. Proposing, debating and enacting legislation in support of legislative priorities and a balanced budget falls to Georgia’s House of Representatives and Senate.

2021 Budget Battle Brewing

There is a budget battle brewing between Governor Brian Kemp and House Speaker David Ralston over who sets Georgia’s policy, legislative initiatives and priorities, and the subsequent state budget.

18th Annual Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Community Breakfast

Posted on Jeff's Blog by Jeffrey Sewell · January 20, 2020 3:16 PM · 1 reaction

It was my honor to attend the 18th Annual 2020 Martin Luther King Community Breakfast for Glynn, McIntosh, Liberty, Camden and Bryan counties on Friday, January 17, hosted by the Coastal Georgia Area Community Action Authority at the College Place United Methodist Church.

Dr. King's life ended when he was only 39 years old and in those few short years, his life, his message and his leadership left a lifetime impact on our country. I have often wondered what the totality of Dr. King's life could have been if still alive today; on January 15, 2020 Dr. King would have been 91 years old.

By this letter, on behalf of the residents and property owners of the historic German Village neighborhood known as Village Bluff on St Simons Island, I am formally requesting that the Georgia Department of Natural Resources initiate and grant approval for an access road across the Musgrove Plantation/Guale Reserve property to the DNR boat ramp located in the northeast corner of the above referenced property.
