Priorities

Georgia families should not be forced to choose between bankruptcy and life-saving healthcare. This is happening to Georgians across income levels, race, gender, and zip code. Nearly a dozen hospitals have closed across the state in the last decade, which has placed a strain on our state’s healthcare system and saddled Georgians with increased costs. 

I want all Georgians to have reliable access to quality healthcare. Together, we must expand Medicaid, bring down healthcare costs, and make sure Georgians can get the care they need when they need it. 

I believe women have a right to make their own healthcare decisions without government interference. Georgia has one of the most restrictive abortion bans in the country and no woman or healthcare professional should ever be at risk of criminal prosecution for providing necessary medical care. And women should not be at risk of dying because they are denied the healthcare they require.

As your next State Representative, I will fight to restore reproductive freedom for the women of Georgia.

I’m proud that Georgia is one of the top states in which to do business, and I will work to maintain Georgia’s thriving business environment. But Georgia’s economy also needs to work for Georgia families, and many are struggling to find affordable housing, affordable child care, and jobs that pay a living wage. We must find solutions that continue to support our state’s business infrastructure, while also ensuring Georgia is a great place to raise a family. If we don’t take care of Georgia families, businesses in our state will eventually suffer.

As a former corporate executive and small business owner, I know that we don’t have to choose between supporting Georgia’s business environment and investing in our families. We can do both.

We must do everything we can to protect our children from senseless gun violence. I will not accept the fear that many of us live with regarding the safety of our children. And Georgians should not fear gun violence while at work, attending a church service, walking on college campuses, or running errands.

In office, I will support common-sense gun safety laws such as universal background checks, red flag laws, and safe storage requirements. I will work to remove battlefield weapons from our streets, not only for the safety of our community, but for the safety of our law enforcement. I will also push for increased mental health services, research on gun violence, and support of our first responders to ensure they have the training and resources they need.
