Georgia's three candidates for U.S. Senate squared off in debates over the weekend, though never at the same time. Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock, Republican Herschel Walker and Libertarian Chase Oliver shared their pitch to voters.

The two candidates in Georgia's only remotely competitive U.S. House race met in a debate Sunday.

The Georgia Budget and Policy Institute is asking the state legislature to create funds for people impacted by long-term effects of COVID-19, including the nearly 12,000 children who lost a caregiver to the virus.
