Georgia’s Governor, Brian Kemp, signed a bill in May that will allow for the removal of elected district attorneys from office. The newly enacted law (Senate Bill 92) establishes a statewide Prosecuting Attorneys Statewide Qualifications Commission vested with the power to investigate complaints against district attorneys and, if warranted, remove them from office. The grounds for discipline, removal, or involuntary retirement of a district attorney or solicitor-general listed in the bill, include: mental or physical incapacity interfering with the performance of his or her duties which is, or is likely to become, permanent; willful misconduct in office; with respect to district attorneys, willful and persistent failure to carry out duties pursuant to Code Section 15-18-6; with respect to solicitors-general, willful and persistent failure to carry out duties pursuant to Code Section 15-18-66; conviction of a crime involving moral turpitude; conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice which brings the office into disrepute; or knowingly authorizing or permitting an assistant district attorney or assistant solicitor-general to commit any act constituting grounds for removal under paragraphs (1) through (6) of this subsection. This measure comes at a critical time, as Fani Willis, a Democrat serving as the Fulton County district attorney, is actively investigating former President Donald Trump in questioning the 2020 election. It’s an inquiry that echoes the years-long efforts by Stacey Abrams and other Democrats who have been raising similar concerns and challenging election integrity.
