Obama praises MLB move out of Georgia as honoring Hank Aaron's legacy
Fox News
Former President Barack Obama praised Major League Baseball's decision Friday to move this year's All-Star Game out of the state in protest of Georgia's new controversial voting law.
"Congratulations to [MLB] for taking a stand on behalf of voting rights for all citizens," Obama tweeted Saturday. "There’s no better way for America’s pastime to honor the great Hank Aaron, who always led by example." President Biden, who called the new GOP voting law "sick" and "Jim Crow on steroids," also supported moving the July game from the Braves' home field of Atlanta’s Truist Park to another location.More Related News
