Cagle Speaks To Cobb GOP Breakfast

April 15 2006 - Casey Cagle addressed the Cobb GOP Breakfast on Saturday April 15, and discussed his candidacy for Lt. Gov. He covered his views on immigration reform, tort reform and education. Cagle was introduced by supporter Senator John Wiles and enjoys the support of the majority of the GA Senate.

Other candidates who spoke at the breakfast include Senator Bill Stephens who is running for Secretary of State, Perry McGuire running for Attorney General and Brent Brown seeking the office of Labor Commissioner.

Bill Stephens said he supports strict implementation of the Voter ID act and wants a verifiable paper trail at the ballot box as part of election reform. He advocates a continued downsizing of government.

Perry McGuire is promoting a state wide prosecutorial database and promised to take on the ACLU on several of the more controversial issues.

If elected Labor Commissioner Brent Brown wants to set on the board of education to develop a better relationship between the state education system and the requirements of the state's future workforce.

Also in attendance were State Senator Chip Rogers, author of State Bill 529, who received a standing ovation, and State Representative Bobby Franklin. Rumor has it that the left wing is searching for an opponent to run against the conservative Bobby Franklin. Conservative Sentinel says Franklin is reelected easily.

Senator Chip Rogers asked everyone to call the Govenor's office (404-656-1776) this week to advocate the signing of 529. Conservative Sentinel says the election conscious Perdue will sign next week with little fanfare.

Congressman Dr. Tom Price will hold an Open Campaign Qualifying Celebration Sunday April 23, check the calendar for more details.

Upcoming events include a Cobb GOP Coffee in Smyrna on Monday, April 17 at the Atlanta Bread Company in Smyrna.
