An influential conservative lobbying group has allegedly failed to file the proper disclosures in connection with advertisements for Gov. Brian Kemp and Lt. Gov. Burt Jones in the 2022 election, according to a complaint filed with the State Ethics Commission.

Frontline Policy Action is an evangelical 501(c)(4) organization that successfully lobbied during the 2025 legislative session for bills including the so-called Religious Freedom Restoration Act and a ban on transgender women and girls playing on women’s school sports teams.

The complaint, submitted April 30 by attorney Bryan Sells, alleges that Frontline Policy Action violated multiple state laws in the runup to the 2022 election in which Kemp won a rematch against  Democrat Stacey Abrams.
