The AJC said Kemp would no longer attend an event slated for next week and noted the timing of the delay came in the wake of Kemp signing into law a controversial bill that would generally ban abortions as soon as a fetal heartbeat is detected. Fetal heartbeat detection can come as soon as six weeks into a pregnancy -- when many women don't yet know they are pregnant. Cody Hall, Kemp's spokesman, told CNN that they had"confirmed a date to go out to LA this fall.
In recent years, following the passage of a tax incentive, Georgia has been the site of increasing film and television production, with the entertainment industry becoming a high-profile and widely-championed sector of the state's economy. But the recent passage of one of the strictest anti-abortion bills in the country has been met with condemnation by filmmakers, some of whom have said they will avoid production in the state because of the measure.Read MoreOthers, including directors J.J.
The prohibition of legal abortion from the 1880s until 1973 came under the same anti-obscenity or Comstock laws that prohibited the dissemination of birth control information and services.Criminalization of abortion did not reduce the numbers of women who sought abortions.
I don’t undestant why people are so outrage ,we ha e to protect the human races to become more responsable with this issue,people can choose between having responsable sex to avoid abortion.we have to be less promiscuous.
Shame what he did
I wonder how many women complaining about the new abortion laws voted for the very Republicans who enacted it. 🤔
Coward
I wouldnt wanna be around a bunch of lunatics either.
Pro life right? She was pregnant. Guess not.
Why does the left say pro life are bad people we are not the one killing anything, and don’t give me any crap about rights cause the left doesn’t care about rights just ask any conservative on a university campus and free speech is under attack
Big names in Hollywood who make big money from mostly the working class in the USA and they want to tell us what we should do? Live your life and we’ll live ours! Maybe you Hollywood folks should stay in Hollywood and fix your backyard first!!
Great job Gov.Kemp for taking a stand! Lives will be saved because of you!!! All lives matter!!! Thank You for being courageous!!!
Hollywood has no place in trying to control a States laws with movie making.Isnt Hollywood great! They are taking a stand against poor defenseless can’t speak for themselves, babies.What a group. Wow! That’s alot of backbone!Need to stay in Hollywood and work on the usual gore!
keep the creep where they like him Stay away from Normal decent people
He's a chicken turd
Kudos to Brian Kemp for standing up for the unborn. Hollywood needs to repent and follow the will of God or end up like Gomorrah and Sodom.
Since when does the film industry dictate our morality? All money is not good money ...
Oh and Bett Midler
Inciting violence towards a sitting governor. Disgraceful, Hollywood.
Stay out of California BrianKempGA your kind ain’t welcome here, boy.
Let this be just the beginning of Georgia’s shame.
He belongs in jail for the rescrictions and denying black voter rights to vote in 2016.
This guy is with out a doubt an illegal governor just like Trump is an illegal president there both cheats.
His reputation and career are toast. Another one for the history books.
GOOD! This man just put a women's right to a legal abortion back in the dark ages. I'm amazed at what some people will do to over turn a law because of their religious ideology. Always thought state and religion were suppose to be separate.
Boycotting Georgia until they realize women have a right to their own bodies, that men a responsible for reproduction too, that over 600k kids are in foster care. This is not the 19th century.
He won't miss a thing by not going to LA!!
Good.
Better stay in your own version of “The Handmaid’s Tale”
Maybe just stay in Georgia.
Nobody wants you in Georgia either
Hollywood isn't all. Atlanta will lose other convention business.
Hollywood should pull ALL filming out of GA.
It is not just the film industry that doesn't want him here. 'Rank & file' Californians don't either. Pro-Choice WomensHealth
BrianKempIsVile BrianKempGA
BrianKempGA U are a mistake to the human race I hope the 👺 🔥 for u
stay in Georgia
Chicken shit.
I am sure he will restate his commitment to film production companies in Georgia but I am glad the response from them is to vacate the state and leave it to it's own devices. If you don't like their response don't pass such heinous laws.
Georgia... always one step forward two steps back...
As long as this garbage is happening in Georgia, we should stop supporting companies that do business there.
See ya Home Depot
Guess he is not welcome with the death cult in Hollywood.☠️☠️☠️
Kemp's such a cowardly chump.
BrianKempGA You are an As_hol_! What is wrong with you? You are corrupt and staceyabrams should be the Governor not you!
No need for him to visits that trash city.
Anyone planning a vacation in GA cancel!
Poor people. I guess now you’ll have to start being responsible when having sex 😕 sucks
how dare this man of God be against murder !!!!!!
What a snowflake.
THIS GUY IS A 'VAGINA WATCH' SUPERVISOR..
