Georgia's State Ethics Commission has dismissed a complaint and declined to investigate Lt. Gov. Burt Jones regarding a $10 million loan he made to his gubernatorial campaign committee.
The complaint, filed by Attorney General Chris Carr—who is also running for governor—alleged the loan may have violated state law. The commission's decision effectively ends the inquiry, allowing Jones to continue his campaign without further scrutiny over the loan. The controversy has become a flashpoint in the early stages of the 2026 Georgia governor's race, highlighting tensions between Republican rivals.
Jones has dismissed the complaint as a political maneuver by his opponent.
