Georgia’s state House wants to spend more on Hurricane Helene relief and is cutting some of Gov. Brian Kemp’s prison and construction spending proposals to do so.

In response to the widespread devastation of Hurricane Helene to Georgia’s farming and timber industries, several state senators filed legislation to provide relief to those impacted by the storm’s damage.

The Georgia House passed an amended budget on Thursday which includes billions of dollars on everything from storm relief, prisons and even the Super Bowl in 2028. This budget helps get the state through the rest of the fiscal year.

The deadline to seek aid from the Federal Emergency Management Agency is Feb. 7, yet many in Jefferson County remain displaced and struggling to recover.
