The Senate Ethics committee recently voted to approve legislation that could potentially ban ballot drop boxes in Georgia and make changes to SB 202. WABE politics reporter Sam Gringlas joins “Closer Look” to discuss the latest. 

We then revisit Rose’s conversation with OneGoal executive director Taylor Ramsey and LaShanti Holland, a OneGoal alum and sophomore at Clayton State University. They discuss how the OneGoal program is preparing students for college who have limited access to resources.
