Elizabeth Warren claims Georgia Gov. Kemp is 'sitting in Stacey Abrams’ chair'

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., on Thursday claimed that Republican Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp is "sitting in Stacey Abram's chair."

"The Republican who is sitting in Stacey Abrams’ chair just signed a despicable voter suppression bill into law to take Georgia back to Jim Crow," Warren tweeted. She added that the U.S. Senate "must pass the #ForThePeople Act and John Lewis Voting Rights Act immediately – our democracy is at stake tonight" in reference to H.R. 1, a Democrat-proposed bill that would expand absentee voting, end gerrymandering and restrict "dark money" political donations, among other things. Warren's tweet came in response to a video of state capitol police arresting Georgia state Rep. Park Cannon on Thursday after she knocked on the Kemp's office door while he was live-streaming an announcement about a new Georgia voting law, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.
