AL SJR125

Expresses strong disapproval of Major League Baseball's decision to relocate the 2021 All-Star game from Atlanta, Georgia following passage of Georgia's Senate Bill 202 voting legislation.

Notes that Georgia Senate Bill 202, signed by Governor Brian Kemp, added new identification requirements for absentee voting, limited the use of drop boxes, and granted more authority over elections to the Georgia Legislature.

Highlights the Atlanta Braves' historical significance as the only Major League Baseball franchise of the current 30 teams to field a team every season since professional baseball's existence and as the oldest continuously operating professional sports franchise in America.

Urges Major League Baseball to reconsider relocating the All-Star game, arguing the move represents unwanted political involvement and threatens professional baseball as historically known.
