Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp doubled down on his criticism of Major League Baseball’s decision to pull this summer’s All-Star Game from the state, saying that the move will have a devastating economic impact on minority-owned businesses.
“It’s minority-owned businesses that have been hit harder than most because of an invisible virus by no fault of their own,” Kemp told reporters at a restaurant in Atlanta. “And these are the same minority businesses that are now being impacted by another decision that is by no fault of their own.”
