Sen. Perdue holds globalist leanings, as evident with his positions on visas for foreign workers who compete with Americans for jobs.[1] However, he has generally been a strong ally of President Donald Trump and is a supporter of the latter's conservative agenda.[2]
Perdue, despite having Trump's endorsement, lost a primary bid for the governorship of Georgia in 2022 to Brian Kemp.
