We are pleased to welcome Georgia’s Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones as our featured speaker at the Roswell Rotary Club meeting on Thursday, November 20. A sixth-generation native of Jackson, Georgia, Burt Jones brings a unique blend of entrepreneurial drive, public service experience, and commitment to Georgia. Burt currently serves as Georgia’s 13th Lieutenant Governor, where he has prioritized tax reform to support working families, expanded school choice to empower parents, and advanced public safety initiatives to combat the fentanyl crisis across the state.

As a business leader, Burt plays a key role in his family’s company, Jones Petroleum, a diverse enterprise employing nearly 2,000 Georgians. He also founded JP Capital & Insurance, a retail insurance brokerage and risk-management firm. His firsthand experience in building businesses from the ground up shapes his approach to economic policy and job creation.

During his decade in the Georgia State Senate representing the 25th District, Burt championed economic development efforts that helped attract new industries to Middle Georgia. He was also a vocal advocate for election reform and supported the passage of Georgia’s Election Integrity Act (S.B. 202), earning recognition from national leaders including President Donald J. Trump, who later appointed him to the Foreign and Domestic Trade Council.

Before entering public life, Burt was a student-athlete at the University of Georgia, where he served as permanent team captain of the 2002 SEC Championship football team. He was later honored as a UGA Distinguished Alumnus and named to the university’s “40 Under 40” list in 2014.

Burt and his wife, Jan, reside in Butts County with their children, Stella and Banks, and are active members of Rock Springs Church in Milner.  Join us for an engaging and informative presentation from one of Georgia’s leaders.  To learn more, click HERE.
