Dear Georgians,
I personally feel it is important for folks to have a better understanding of the intensity of this virus. The people need facts and better intelligence is the only way to make appropriate decisions.
One week ago, I would have never imagined the decisions that have come from our leadership.
It is our moral obligation that District 1 is a leader and example for counties across the country to follow as this situation unfolds.
Prayers are needed for the Americans on the front lines of this pandemic. Please follow the instructions from your elected officials and our law enforcement.
Please keep yourself informed by watching the videos below and visiting this page for the latest updates for Northwest Georgia.
Your friend,
Rep. Colton Moore
