There are more than 100,000 electric vehicles on Georgia’s roadways. Currently, under the Biden administration, car buyers can receive a $7,500 tax credit towards the purchase of an electric vehicle. However, President-elect Donald Trump is promising to repeal that tax credit. David Ferris, a reporter from Politico's Energy and Environment News, and Stan Cross, the electric transportation director at the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy, talk more about the current state of the electric vehicle industry and how the industry could grow or change under the incoming Trump administration.

Plus, according to the Georgia Farm Bureau, just about any crop or animal can be grown successfully somewhere within the state of Georgia. Cotton, peanuts, corn, blueberries and pecans are among the most valuable commodities in Georgia’s nearly $84 billion agricultural industry. Henry Ostaszewski, a cofounder of Blue 42 Market in Downtown Dahlonega, discusses the current state of Georgia’s agricultural landscape and the potential economic impact the Trump administration could have on the industry.

Lastly, Rose remembers literary legend, poet, author and civil rights activist Nikki Giovanni who died Monday night at the age of 81.
