Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp rose to national notice in 2018 in part through a television ad that showed him brandishing a shotgun at an actor playing a suitor of one of his daughters.
Gov. Brian Kemp signed a measure yesterday making it legal for law abiding citizens to carry handguns in public without a license.–
Kemp's advocacy of permitless carry had grown quieter after he took office. He supported some gun rights expansions but talked little of constitutional carry, failing to mention the issue in his 2019, 2020 or 2021 State of the State speeches.But in one example of how Perdue's Donald Trump-endorsed challenge has forced Kemp to the right,Perdue told reporters Tuesday in Atlanta that he's “glad” Kemp was signing the bill but said the governor isn't doing enough to fight crime.
Kemp's support points to a sharp divergence between the Georgia Republican and Democratic parties this year on guns and other issues. There's little dissension inside the Republican Party on expanding gun rights, while Democrats are eager to stake their claim to “commonsense” gun regulation.
