Today, women in Georgia lost the right to choose their futures. We are now being governed by one of the most extreme abortion bans in the nation.
Georgia is the tip of the spear. And if we can stop these laws here in Georgia, if we can reverse this trend, we can do so much not only to protect the women of Georgia, but to protect women in the south.
In 2020, black American women did what we were made to do and drag democracy back into the light and make sure that the will of the American people was heard.
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.
