About this episode
In this episode of The Georgia Politics Podcast, we sit down with State Representative Scott Hilton for a comprehensive Sine Die recap of Georgia's 2026 legislative session.
Rep. Hilton walks us through the biggest wins, setbacks, and surprises from under the Gold Dome, offering a behind-the-scenes look at how key legislation came together—or fell apart—before the final gavel. From major policy debates to late-session negotiations, he shares insight into what shaped the session's final outcomes.
We also discuss the bills that didn't make it across the finish line, what it all means for Georgians, and how this year's session sets the tone for what's ahead in Georgia politics.
