Nathan Deal (born August 25, 1942) was the 82nd governor of the US state of Georgia, serving from 2011 to 2019. Deal defeated Democratic candidate and former governor Roy Barnes in the 2010 gubernatorial election. A Republican since 1995, Deal has received nationwide attention for House Bill 60, a passed bill that allows people to carry guns into bars and government and religious buildings. In 2017, he signed a bill into law allowing limited campus carry, having vetoed a bill the previous year allowing for broader campus carry rights.[1]

Deal served in numerous positions, including the United States House of Representatives from 1993 to 2010.
