What I am willing to do is make sure every voice is counted, every vote gets cast. And even if they don’t vote for me, I’m going to fight to make sure our democracy works in Georgia, because that’s what leadership looks like.
Right now, women are in extreme danger. Georgia Governor Brian Kemp passed a law in 2019 that he gleefully signed that eliminates access to the right to an abortion after six weeks.
I am tired of hearing about being the best state in the country to do business, when we are the worst state in the country to live.
Where we stood in Georgia prior to Brian Kemp was a 20-week ban, that I also found deeply objectionable. But what Brian Kemp has done is go so far afield that 72% of women — 72% of Georgians disagree with what we have right now, which is almost a total ban.
