Brian Kemp’s first day
After a bruising election, Kemp has pledged to unite Georgians behind his plans to give teachers $5,000 pay raises and crack down on viogang lent offenders while also staying true to his conservative pledges to expand gun rights and sign a “religious liberty” measure.
His inaugural speech, to be delivered at 2 p.m. today at Georgia Tech’s McCamish Pavilion, will set the tone for his first year in office. Expect a broad focus on working across party lines and building consensus — and none of the partisan attacks that proliferated on the campaign trail.
That’s just the start of a hectic week.
Kemp is expected to outline some specifics Wednesday at the Georgia Chamber’s annual breakfast, and then sharpen the details and unveil his spending plan Thursday in his State of the State address.
He’ll cap the week with his inaugural gala Thursday night.
