WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Reverend Raphael Warnock (D-GA) and Rep. Earl L. “Buddy” Carter (R-GA) led members of the Georgia Congressional delegation in a bipartisan, bicameral letter to invite the University of Georgia Bulldogs Football Team to the White House in honor of their most recent 2022 National Championship win.
Despite winning the 2021 National Championship, the Bulldogs were not able to be hosted at the White House due to COVID-19 restrictions, adding to the importance of this visit for the back-to-back champions.
In the letter, the lawmakers write: “For years, the college football national champion has had the high honor of being hosted, by the President, at the White House…It is our hope that this repeat championship team can join the many teams prior that have been honored by the President.”
Senator Reverend Warnock has been a vocal supporter of the Bulldogs over the span of both of their title-winning seasons.
Joining Sen. Raphael Warnock and Rep. Buddy Carter in the letter are Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA), and Reps. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA), Henry C. “Hank” Johnson (D-GA), Austin Scott (R-GA), Sanford Bishop (D-GA), Rick Allen (R-GA), Nikema Williams (D-GA), Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), David Scott (D-GA), Drew Ferguson (R-GA), Lucy McBath (D-GA), Andrew Clyde (R-GA), Mike Collins (R-GA), and Rich McCormick, M.D. (R-GA).
