Georgia: The higher education state
From the ajc's Political Insider:
Who has the most hard-core Republican congressional delegation in the country?
One measure might be the House vote Wednesday on the bill reducing the interest on federal student loans, part of the Democrats’“100 hours” push. The popular measure was a rout, with 124 Republicans joining the Democrats and only 71 opposing it.
But the Georgia Republicans solidly opposed the measure. Six of the seven Republicans voted against it, with Rep. Charlie Norwood, who is battling cancer, not voting.
All six Georgia Democrats voted for the measure.
