Team Gullett sponsored yesterday’s North Georgia Golf Tournament to support Xcel Strategies. If you are not familiar with them, they do great work right here in our area. They give young adults hands on training, solid mentorship, and a clear line of sight to great careers.

Glad to support their mission and keep championing these workforce opportunities under the Gold Dome!

We hope you’ll join us this Saturday! Early voting for the runoff elections starts next week, and we’re happy to partner with Turning Point to help get out the vote. Bring your friends and family. See you there!

Georgia, mark your calendars with these dates!
