Georgia governor wants more money to address harassment
Read full article: Georgia governor wants more money to address harassmentATLANTA โ One of Republican Brian Kempโs first acts as Georgia governor involved revamping the stateโs handling of sexual harassment complaints and placing State Inspector General Deborah Wallace in charge of the issue. Kemp now wants to expand Wallaceโs office, adding $435,182 to fund five new positions in his proposed fiscal 2021 budget, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The expansion, which would represent a 43% budget increase for the small agency, comes as other state agencies are being asked to trim their budgets amid a revenue shortfall. Kemp also proposed an additional $250,000 in the current yearโs budget, as the agency already brought on new staff to handle complaints. Wallaceโs office has recorded nearly 150 complaints from state government offices since the policy took effect in March.
