Rivian’s CEO on Georgia’s EV Future as Chris Carr Makes His Governor Pitch

Host Patricia Murphy talks with Rivian founder and CEO RJ Scaringe about the company’s long-awaited Georgia plant, the clean-manufacturing standards Rivian says will protect local communities, and why Scaringe believes the state is positioned to become a national leader in next-generation vehicle technology. He also discusses working with Governor Brian Kemp, the future of EV incentives, and Rivian’s long-term commitment to Georgia.

Then Politically Georgia’s Candidate Forum series concludes with Attorney General Chris Carr, who makes his case for governor. Carr talks about Georgia’s economic momentum, his focus on affordability, public safety, and property taxes, and why he believes the next governor must be prepared to confront federal dysfunction while keeping the state competitive and safe.
