I am committed to fighting for a livable minimum wage, expanding the stock of affordable housing, and advocating for universal healthcare. I will fight for a future where every hardworking person in Georgia’s 9th Congressional District can live a life of dignity, where they have extra savings at the end of the month and are confident they will be able to buy their home.

Nobody should be dying, in the wealthiest country in the world, because they are unable to access the medical care they need. I will fight for Medicare for All, because it will save about $1 trillion in healthcare costs per year, and it will save more than 100,000 lives every year.

Congress needs to take its power back and reinstitute the system of checks and balances it was meant to contribute to. I will fight to help Congress to take back its war and taxation powers.

Private companies with ALPRs are infringing on our rights, and tech companies are not acting responsibly. We need representatives who understand the developing threats and are prepared to take action, such as creating a federal AI regulatory commission, working with other international actors, and fighting against the data centers that are taking our community resources.

The United States used to be a champion for human rights and a leader in global politics. We are losing that reputation. One way to regain it is by having a Congress that reins in the president’s power, so that the international community is not left to the whims of a new administration every 4-8 years.

Right now, big corporations are being prioritized, at the expense of smaller, locally-owned businesses. That’s why I am committed to breaking up consolidation and monopolization in the marketplace, fully funding the small business administration, and lowering interest rates on small business loans.

As someone who has helped unionize my workplace, I am familiar with the fear and hesitation workers feel when they try to demand better conditions. That’s why I’m committed to fighting for the PRO Act and a livable minimum wage.

ICE does not serve a unique purpose in the federal government, and its two main duties (enforcing immigration laws and investigating international crimes) could easily be absorbed by other federal agencies that do not routinely violate human rights. This is not a call for open borders, but an acknowledgement that our current immigration enforcement system is threatening the safety of our communities, and we need to change.

I am committed to taking a proactive approach to protecting women’s rights, LGBTQIA+ rights, and the right to due process. I will fight against discrimination in all forms, including in healthcare, in the workplace, in the military, and in the making of a family.

The right to vote is fundamental to our democracy, but the Supreme Court has gutted the Voting Rights Act, removing the protections that guaranteed our right. I am going to support legislation like the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, and fight to make Election Day a federal holiday.

The current administration is not protecting our beautiful forests. I am committed to fighting to make sure the US National Forest Service is fully funded and staffed, and to protecting the Roadless Rule, so that our forests are protected from intensive logging and road building.
