Today, Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr resigned as chair of the Republican Attorneys General Association (RAGA) over controversy involving RAGA’s role in promoting the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol in January. In response, Rebecca Galanti, spokesperson for the Democratic Party of Georgia, released the following statement:
“Chris Carr oversaw an organization that urged people to march on the U.S. Capitol in protest of a free and fair election. His resignation now does not change the fact that under his leadership, Republican Attorneys General became even more anti-democratic and contributed to a deadly riot. As hard as he tries to distance himself from his past ahead of an election year, Georgia voters know Chris Carr for who he really is – an extremist who puts politics ahead of the rule of law.”
