Placeholder Image
Reaction to President Barack Obama’s State of the Union address continued to pour in Wednesday from Georgia’s political leaders, with opinions predictably falling along partisan lines. But for Gainesville resident Sarah Beth Schulte, the president’s annual speech was an opportunity to get a behind-the-scenes look at how politics play out in the nation’s capital. Schulte recently moved to Hall County to work as the recruiting and mobilization coordinator for Rahab’s Rope, a Gainesville nonprofit that combats human trafficking in India by reaching out to at-risk women.
