State Senator  Jeff Mullis (R-Chickamauga) has received the endorsement of Georgia Governor Brian Kemp and other statewide and local officials.

“Senator Jeff Mullis is a strong leader for Northwest Georgia and our entire state,” Governor Kemp said. “He has been a trusted ally in advancing our agenda to put Georgians first – from passing the Heartbeat bill and cracking down on gangs to teacher pay raises and making Georgia the #1 state for small business. I endorse Jeff Mullis and look forward to continuing our work with him in the Senate as we build a safer, stronger Georgia.”

“I am honored to have Governor Kemp’s endorsement,” Senator Mullis said. “I am proud of our work together putting Georgians first and appreciate his leadership.”

Kemp is joined in his endorsement of Mullis by Lt. Governor Geoff Duncan, Retired U.S. Senator Johnny Isakson, and former Governor Nathan Deal.  He also received endorsements from Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr and Georgia Agricultural Commissioner Gary Black.

Mullis was also endorsed by Chattooga County Sheriff Mark Schrader, along with the sheriff’s in Walker, Dade and Catoosa Counties.

A meet and greet with Senator Mullis is being organized today at the law office of Ken Bruce that is sponsored by Bruce and Chattooga County State Court Solicitor “Buddy” Hill.  The event will be held this (Saturday) morning at the Bruce Building across from the Chattooga County Tax Commissioner’s Office.
