How did the Georgia legislature respond to the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Brown vs. Board of Education? Georgia’s legislature filed for an appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court. Georgia’s legislature revoked the Supreme Court decision, claiming it did not apply to Georgia. Georgia’s legislature enforced the decision of the Supreme Court’s, acknowledging that federal law took priority. Georgia’s legislature had no reaction to the decision.
