Today begins the final legislative chapter of a century long effort to create GA's first Nat'l Park & Preserve in the Ocmulgee Corridor. Due to the bipartisan, bicameral, tribal, non-tribal, & multi-jurisdictional collaboration, we could not be in a stronger position. #gapol

Today begins the final legislative chapter of a century long effort to create GA's first Nat'l Park & Preserve in the Ocmulgee Corridor. Due to the bipartisan, bicameral, tribal, non-tribal, & multi-jurisdictional collaboration, we could not be in a stronger position. #gapol
I joined @SanfordBishop, @SenOssoff, & @SenatorWarnock in introducing the Ocmulgee Mounds Park and Preserve Establishment Act, which would establish Ocmulgee Mounds and surrounding areas in Middle Georgia as a National Park and Preserve. 1/4
