[Conservative Angle]

​

Well, folks, here’s some good news.

Stacey Abrams’ nonprofit organization, The New Georgia Project, is finally closing down, once and for all!

Once one of the most influential political groups in the South, the New Georgia Project is shutting down this week, marking a stunning fall for an organization that pushed to advance Democratic causes for more than a decade. https://t.co/0SRZFR5WLx

The nonprofit was originally established in 2013 by twice-failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams.

CBS News reported on its closure:

The New Georgia Project and its affiliated New Georgia Project Action Fund announced Thursday that they will formally dissolve as organizations.

In a joint statement, the boards of directors said the decision comes as both groups reflect on a decade of work aimed at empowering voters and strengthening democracy in the state.

“We have believed that every voice matters and that democracy thrives when people are informed, organized, and empowered,” the statement read. “As we close this chapter, we recognize that the work of building a just and truthful world remains urgent.”

This marks an end to over a decade of (alleged) corruption, lies, and illegal election fundraising schemes.

Folks on X ‘fixed’ the headline…

Hey @ajc, fixed the headline for you: "New Georgia Project shuts down, ending a decade of false narratives, misinformation and criminal campaign activity." https://t.co/c5DNLyQt12

Vile, despicable money laundering project, more clearly defines this outfit. As writers, it's important to make good word choices. ABRAMS, WARNOCK.

The embattled nonprofit has been struggling for quite some time.

Founded by Stacey Abrams, the group's illegal spending boosted the 2018 campaign that made her a rising star in Democratic politics. Now closing "amid financial struggles and internal conflict." https://t.co/614VC84CNQ

After the organization was forced to pay out a huge fine for violating campaign finance laws and a new investigation was announced, the director of the nonprofit stepped down earlier this year.

Most of the staff was subsequently laid off.

AJC provided more background:

Once one of the most influential political groups in the South, the New Georgia Project is shutting down this week, marking a stunning fall for an organization that pushed to advance Democratic causes for more than a decade…

Signs of trouble have mounted for months. The group has long been hobbled by internal turmoil, fundraising struggles and mounting legal problems leading to an exodus of key staffers in the run-up to last year’s election.

In January, it agreed to pay a record $300,000 fine for violating Georgia campaign finance laws after admitting to illegally aiding Abrams’ 2018 gubernatorial bid by spending millions to support her campaign without proper registration or reporting. Ethics officials say the fine has been paid in full.

The organization’s director, Francys Johnson, stepped down months ago. And a Georgia Senate committee announced plans to investigate the group and its ties to Abrams.

Once, the group maintained an average of 150 staffers that swelled to 400 canvassers during elections.In recent weeks, only a skeletal staff remained after at least three rounds of layoffs since the 2024 election.

The Rev. James Woodall, who chairs the New Georgia Project Action Fund’s board, recently said leaders were “actively assessing the organization’s long-term vitality.” On Thursday, he confirmed the group’s decision to cease operations.

The One Big Beautiful Bill appears to have been the final nail in the coffin for Abrams’ nonprofit…

Groups like this were counting on a $27 billion EPA slush fund from the Inflation Reduction Act.

Outstanding work by the Trump admin in abolishing it with the OBBB. https://t.co/0m3oaqye61

Yet another achievement to add to President Trump’s record!
