Georgia governor Brian Kemp dismissed calls for a boycott of the state on Saturday following the passage of a law that outlaws abortion once a fetal heartbeat can be detected.
“I have to be there for another month but you can be sure I will fight tooth and nail to move Insatiable to a state that will protect our rights. And if it doesn’t move to another state, I will not be able to return to the show if we are blessed with a third season. This is my leverage. I will use it for the betterment of society and our great country," Milano told BuzzFeed via email.
Speaking Saturday at the Georgia Republican convention, Kemp shrugged off threats of boycotts and other protests, saying,"I understand that some folks don’t like this new law. I’m fine with that. We’re elected to do what’s right – and standing up for precious life is always the right thing to do.” Productions that have filmed in Georgia include AMC's The Walking Dead and many of the movies in the Marvel franchise, including Avengers: Endgame, which has grossed over $741 million in the United States alone.
What did he expect? More consequences to come, dude.
Georgia, Louisiana and Missouri should lose all federal welfare funds. Why should taxpayers in wealthy progressive States keep subsidizing these backward States who force poor women to have children they can't afford to feed.
C list...from the guy that cheated to win his election. Hypocrite BoycottGeorgia StacyWon
Maybe everyone should stop drinking CocaCola products.
It's what people do, when others hit the nerve of truth.
This racist cheater with less morals than a skunk he has the nerve to throw shade,well we know we're getting to him.
I guess he feels that the teenager, who was raped and is now pregnant, is not innocent. but the rapist is. Let the woman and her doctor decide not a bunch of political folks.
So says the guy who controlled the electoral process & purged thousands while he was running for Governor. Such a bastion of integrity...she says sarcastically. Georgians SHOULD suffer for not resoundingly voting to keep this maggot out of the Governor's seat. RecallKemp
I’m no list but I won’t even change planes in Gilead

Well he's a c list politician so I guess he knows a lot about c list stuff
Is it just me or do these Republicans always look ethically compromised?
He may want to have SEVERAL seats. What a complete m0r0n. This is just the beginning. Thanks to him, his state is regressing
Georgia is ass backward won’t be visiting till the law changes
Gov. -you screw up the movie industry and you’re going to be recalled
very disappointed with ron howard will boycott is films
. Coming from a z list governor his words don't mean much. What will mean a lot will be the boycott of the movie and t.v. industry in Georgia. Y'all elected some disturbed people !!! .
He’s not too bright, is he?
Boycott works.
No, Governor. The GOP is the party of racism, bigotry, hate, a party that wages a war on the poor AND a war on women. Not just in Georgia but across this divided nation. And we will fight back against you and your crazy party. ColdCivilWar
Trump bully talk. Your so called 'C actors' actors are still taking away your money.
That’s funny coming from an F-list governor
Well let's kick it up a notch. Tourism boycott. Boycott products of companies headquartered in Georgia. See what average Americans can do.
Except JJ Abrams and Jordan Peele are anything but C list.

As celebrities slam anti-abortion laws, Hollywood's power comes into focus in GeorgiaAs 'heartbeat' abortion bans face legal challenges across the country, Hollywood's influence is coming into particular focus in Georgia — the 'Hollywood of the South.' They deserve to be boycotted for punishing half the human race. Not as much “Sway” as they would like. This is really a “Nothing Burger” if ever there was one. Most of Alabama will be glad to see them leave! When an animal is almost extinct, the pro abortion people suddenly change their minds on when life begins, just so they can save a species from becoming extint. But when it comes to a Human Life, science is a guessing game.

No Freedom of privacy or autonomy. No liberty to act on that freedom. Hence MoGov owns females as property

Alabama boycott builds as states retaliate against abortion lawA movement to boycott Alabama over its near-ban on abortion gained momentum Thur... Alabama has sealed their fate with that travesty of a law. When those people are up for reelection vote them out as well as that idiot Governor. Killing another human being is always wrong. AllLivesMatter Instead of boycotting the state, how about voting out all the 25 white men who voted for the bill in the first place?
