Community members will have a chance to meet face-to-face with their state lawmakers tonight. Americans for Prosperity Georgia is hosting a free public forum featuring Representatives Mike Cameron, Steve Tarvin, and Mitchell Horner. The event begins at six-thirty p.m. at Farm to Fork in Ringgold. Discussion will focus on Georgia’s economic future—looking back at what was accomplished during the 2025 legislative session, and what could be ahead in 2026. Organizers say the goal is to give residents a direct line of communication with their elected officials and encourage civic engagement. Attendees can submit questions in advance or during the event, and selected questions will be answered during the panel. Again, that event is this evening at six-thirty, at Farm to Fork in Ringgold. It’s free and open to the public.
