(Worthy News) – Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp says he doesn’t care what Hollywood thinks, signing the “heartbeat” abortion bill into law on Tuesday morning.

In response, Milano launched a campaign encouraging Hollywood stars to stop doing business in Georgia, which has been referred to as the “Hollywood of the South.” [ Source: CBN News (Read More…) ]
