Georgia Is At A Crossroads

For too long, our leaders have celebrated a “booming” economy while housing, energy, healthcare, and food costs push more Georgians to the brink. With federal budget cuts looming, the most vulnerable will be hit hardest, while state leaders are talking about cutting taxes for the wealthy instead of protecting families.

I’m running to bring common-sense leadership to the State House: to keep kids fed, families healthy, and every Georgian able to thrive.

The Reality for Georgia Families

For over 20 years, the same party has run our state. They point to a “booming” economy and $15 billion in reserves as evidence of success, but too many Georgians are being left behind.

Housing is out of reach for working families. Energy costs are rising due to corruption in the Public Service Commission and unchecked data center growth. We rank among the worst states in healthcare access and affordability. Food insecurity is growing. And now, federal budget cuts will slash critical funds for healthcare, food, and education; hitting our most vulnerable neighbors hardest.

Billionaires can exist. Hungry children should not.

The Math is Simple

The Republican leadership’s answer? Eliminating the state income tax and legalizing gambling. Not a plan to keep kids fed, families healthy, or communities safe.

When people lose healthcare, they delay treatment until they’re seriously ill, leading to expensive emergency care that drives up costs for everyone.
When people lose access to food, desperation leads to crime — a proven recipe for rising crime rates.

This isn’t a “woke” talking point. It’s a fact of life for our friends and families.

A Better Path Forward

The federal budget changes mean Georgia will have to make tough decisions in the coming years. I believe we can protect our most critical services — healthcare, education, and public safety — by making sure our state budget reflects our values and priorities.

That means:

Focusing spending on what actually helps Georgia families.
Closing wasteful loopholes that benefit a few at the expense of the many.
Ensuring everyone contributes their fair share so our communities remain strong.

We don't have to choose between fiscal responsibility and taking care of our neighbors.

After more than 20 years of single-party rule, it’s time for new leadership in Georgia — leadership that faces our challenges head-on, protects our people, and builds a state where every Georgian can thrive.
