ATLANTA — Gov. Brian Kemp signed legislation Wednesday, Jan. 31 defining antisemitism and incorporating it into Georgia’s hate crimes law.
“There is no place for hate in this great state,” Kemp said during a ceremony at the state Capitol. “In Georgia, we stand with our Jewish brothers and sisters, today and every day.”
