Georgia Prosecutors Dismiss Trump Election Case; Marjorie Greene Resigns; Hyundai Plant Raid Leads to 475 Arrests
On November 26, the Prosecuting Attorney's Council of Georgia dismissed the election interference case against Trump and 18 others. Executive Director Peter Skandalakis cited a lack of prosecutors willing to pursue the case as the reason for its dismissal, which allows Trump to collect attorney's fees from Fulton County due to a new law.
Marjorie Greene resigned from Congress, citing personal attacks from Trump and concerns over a primary challenge. A raid at the Hyundai-LG Battery plant resulted in 475 arrests, predominantly of South Korean nationals returned to their country, raising concerns about U.S.-Korea business relations.
Georgia's Public Service Commission approved a plan to increase power capacity, while a report indicated only 30% of data centers were linked to a previous tax break. Tort reform legislation passed, and Georgia was removed from the Judicial Hellholes list, although some counties remain problematic. Additionally, five paper mills closing in south Georgia will have a $2.9 billion annual economic impact.
