Georgia’s Senate passed a bill Thursday that would ban libraries from spending public or private funds on services offered by the American Library Association, which a Republican member of the chamber called a “Marxist and socialist” group.
The measure, Senate Bill 390, passed by a vote of 33 to 20. Democrats opposed it, saying the ALA offered libraries invaluable services and had long defended free speech and artistic expression.
But one of the bill’s authors, Republican Sen. Larry Walker III, said the group’s agenda and politics were inconsistent with Georgia’s conservative values.
“This is not an attack on libraries,” he said. “It doesn’t ban any books.”

Progress is rarely a flat line
Progress is never a flat line. Incrementalism only exist to erode our rights, not gain them. Rights are cemented hard and fast with a pen stroke. Incrementalism is the 10000 lawsuits chipping away at it one nib le at a time. 50 years of that and look, Roe gets overturned.

Would have been nice to see the cities as pie charts, as probably none of the cities are 100% voting for a party. So it’s a big difference if Clayton is 50% + 1 Dems or 75%.
