Hank Johnson U.S. House of Representatives from Georgia's 4th district | Official U.S. House Headshot
Rep. Hank Johnson, a U.S. Congressman representing Georgia's 4th district since 2007, has shared his perspectives on several historical and legislative issues through a series of tweets. Born in Washington, D.C., Johnson holds degrees from Clark Atlanta University and Texas Southern University and resides in Lithonia.
On January 23, 2025, Rep. Hank Johnson drew parallels between current events and historical occurrences by stating "This is like the federal government withdrawing federal troops from the South in 1877, which ended Reconstruction and ushered in the Jim Crow Era. It’s straight-out racism."
In another tweet posted on the same day, Rep. Johnson highlighted legislation aimed at repealing an outdated law: "The Neighbors Not Enemies Act sponsored by @Ilhan & @maziehirono repeals the Alien Enemies Act, preventing the internment & deportation of people with no due process based solely on their nationality." He emphasized that it is time to end this "archaic law."
