    Thousands rallied at the Georgia State Capitol on Saturday for the "No Kings" march, protesting President Donald Trump's immigration policies and funding for ICE and Border Patrol, with organizers estimating 22,000 attendees, according to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. As the 2026 legislative session races toward its Thursday Sine Die deadline, lawmakers are debating key items including the state budget, tax reforms, childhood literacy initiatives, and a shift to hand-marked paper ballots, reports the AJC.
