  • ATLANTA, Georgia, January 30, 2008: On Thursday the House ethics committee ruled that New York Democratic Representative Charles Rangel violated House rules by not declaring that trips he made to the Caribbean in 2007 and 2008 were partially funded by corporations. Rangel claimed he did not know who was funding the trip and that his aides were responsible for the mistake, not him, because two of them were aware of the corporate connection but did not inform him. <br />
<br />
Rangel is currently the head of the powerful Ways and Means Committee which writes US tax law.<br />

  • ATLANTA, GA - SEPT 16, 2009: Former president Jimmy Carter visited Emory for his 28th annual Carter Town Hall meeting for Emory University's 1,300 freshmen, in which Carter responds to students questions. This year's event took place against a backdrop of Carter's comment the previous day, quoted by Fox News, that Congressman Joe Wilson's outburst during President Obama's recent speech to Congress was "based on racism."<br />
<br />
The questions at the Emory event said as much about Carter as it did about the students, many of whom spent the Q&A period texting on their cell phones. The opening question of the evening was what he thought of Kanye West's outburst at the VMA Music awards. Carter responded that he thought it was uncalled for.<br />
<br />
Midway through the hour-long session, he took a question about Obama and racism and responded, "When a radical fringe element of demonstrators and others begin to attack the president of the United States as an animal or as a reincarnation of Adolf Hitler, or when they wave signs in the air that say that we should have buried Obama with Kennedy, those kind of attacks are beyond the bounds of the way presidents have ever been accepted, even with people who disagree [with them]. I think people who are guilty of that type of personal attack against Obama have been influenced to a major degree by a belief that he should not be president because he is African-American. It's a racist attitude."<br />
<br />
The final question addressed how he upheld his obligations to  his family when he was president. "My family took care of me," he responded, and with that he left the stage and immediately went to Rosalynn Carter, his wife of 57 years, took her hand and exited.

  • ATLANTA, GA - MARCH 24 , 2011: "You must not give up," Representative John Lewis told the thousands of protesters gathered outside the Georgia capitol to loudly oppose two controversial pieces of legislation aimed at cracking down on illegal immigration. "We are all brothers and sisters we are all one family, " Lewis shouted to the cheering crowd. "If anyone of us is illegal we are all illegal. There are no illegal human beings. If any of you get arrested and go to jail I am prepared to go to jail with you. We will get justice in the state of Georgia!"<br />
<br />
Police estimated approximately 6,500 people attended the event. Chanting and holding signs with such messages as "No human is illegal" and "Stop racial profiling," the crowd urged Gov. Nathan Deal to veto whichever bill state lawmakers ultimately approve. <br />
<br />
Between speeches by immigration advocates, Democratic state lawmakers and religious leaders, the Indigo Girls performed for the large crowd. <br />
<br />
Both the House and Senate have passed their own legislative packages aimed at undocumented immigration. The bills would provide stiff penalties for people who transport or offer aid to undocumented immigrants and give police the authority to check a suspect's immigration status if the officers have "probable cause," among other changes.<br />
<br />
Critics, including civil and human rights groups, say the legislation would severely hinder Georgia industries dependent on migrant labor and likely trigger tourism and product boycotts.
