⚡ This Just In: Senator Raphael Warnock announced the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will scale back Lake Lanier park closures following pressure from his office and Georgia residents. The Corps originally planned to close 23 parks indefinitely but reduced that number to 11. Warnock blamed "reckless Trump Administration policies" for creating staffing shortages that led to the closures. "After public outcry from myself and countless Georgians, we prevented more than half of the announced park closures," Warnock said. "This is welcome news for Georgia families looking forward to enjoying summer days by the lake."
