Georgia state senator Colton Moore, a Republican who pushed for a special session to investigate and potentially defund Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, has now been suspended from his caucus. He failed to garner support from his fellow Republicans for such actions, and his caucus had warned him he was breaking the rules.

On Sept. 28, the Georgia Senate Republicans issued a statement on X (formerly Twitter) announcing Mr. Moore’s “indefinite” suspension from the Republican caucus.
