On the 25th anniversary of the September 11th attacks, we pause to remember the nearly 3,000 innocent lives taken from us and honor the first responders and countless Americans whose courage and selflessness defined that tragic day.

Dolly Parton, her exceptional talent and voice, and the kindness she demonstrated throughout her life and career are American treasures. As a daughter of a neighboring state, her loss is felt all the more in the South where she was so deeply loved. Her impact on this Earth reached far beyond the music industry, and her life and legacy will continue to be celebrated for generations to come. She will be greatly missed, and the prayers of our family are with her loved ones and the entire State of Tennessee that proudly calls her their own.

All of Georgia is rooting for Hannah Oellerich of Augusta Prep and Jackson Brooks of Clarke Central High as they represent us at the Patriot Games! Hannah and Jackson, you’re the type of young leaders that make us all proud and we wish you the best of luck. Keep choppin’! 🇺🇸 freedom250.org/celebration/t…

From the Georgia General Assembly to Mercer Athletics, Jim has served well. We’re proud of all he’s achieved. Keep choppin’, Jim! mymcr.net/free/breaking-jim-…

Happy 250th birthday, America! We are so proud to be citizens of this great nation, both today and every day. Please join the Kemp family in honoring the sacrifices of our brave servicemembers which allows us to celebrate this historic day.

Marty, the girls, and I join the Carrollton Police Department in mourning the loss of Officer Dustin Krish. Please keep his family and friends in your prayers as we remember his faithful service to the Carrollton Community.

Marty and I are on the ground today with first responders and state officials in the fight against the South Georgia wildfires. Yet again, we’ve been overwhelmed by the outpouring of support that Georgians have shown for their neighbors. The Georgia Forestry Foundation is helping with those incredible efforts that demonstrate the very fabric of our state. gffgrow.org/wildfire-recover…

Glad to see that at long last, justice has been secured for Tara Baker, for her incredibly brave family and friends who have endured decades of suffering, and for the UGA community that Tara loved. May her memory continue to inspire and strengthen other families searching for hope. wsbtv.com/news/local/clarke-…

As we close out #NationalPoliceWeek, we’re grateful for the dedication of all of our law enforcement officers around the state who help to keep Georgia safe. Marty, the girls, and I ask all Georgians to join us in praying for God’s continued protection of the men and women who wear a badge and uniform!

As the Kemp family celebrates one of our favorite traditions this morning and shares thanks for those who protect their fellow Georgians, we’re wishing everyone a safe and happy Thanksgiving!

Incredible work by the @GBI_GA Cold Case Unit and all our partners on this case. Last year, I signed the Coleman-Baker Act so that we can bring closure and justice, far too long deferred, to families like this. May Tara’s memory live on through the good work of this Unit.

Please read my statement on the tragic passing of Trooper Jimmy Cenescar:

Marty, the girls, and I are truly heartbroken by the tragic passing of one of Georgia’s finest. This is the ultimate sacrifice and our hearts and prayers are with the family and loved ones mourning this loss and all law enforcement tonight as they serve their fellow Georgians.
