“We Are Now Blaming Job Creators, For The Actions Of Criminals, Rather Than Going After The Criminals And Holding Them Accountable.”

– Attorney General Chris Carr

BACKGROUND …
Kia, Hyundai recall would be ‘completely backwards,’ Georgia AG says.  “The Georgia Attorney General came out Friday against a nationwide call for Kia and Hyundai to recall millions of vehicles in the wake of viral exploit which makes stealing those vehicles easy. … In a statement released on Friday afternoon, AG Chris Carr puts the blame squarely on criminals, not the consumers or corporations:  ‘This approach is completely backwards. The State of Georgia will not blame companies for the actions of criminals. We also refuse to put additional burden on companies in order to coddle criminals, as we are seeing being done in far too many cities and states around the country.’” (Fox 5 Atlanta, 04/21/23)

Protecting Americans Action Fund is led by Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares.  The organization’s advisory board includes a wide range of individuals committed to national public safety issues.
