Believes "It is unconscionable that there are people among us that work 40+ hours a week, sometimes at multiple jobs, that cannot afford to live off of those wages. The increase in the cost of living has significantly outpaced minimum wage requirements, and it is time we as a State take time to fix it. " 

Supports "Expanding public transit will not only allow more ease in navigating in and around the city, but could also spur job growth, boosting Georgia's economy."

Believes "In Gwinnett County... greater than 100,000 residents are uninsured. This is not, nor should it ever be acceptable. Our State's refusal to expand Medicaid has resulted in a large number of Georgians being left without viable options for insurance and a number of rural hospitals having to shut their doors."

Said "Laws that specifically target women's bodies, that seek to strip away bodily autonomy and allow government intrusion on private medical matters, are unconstitutional and unnecessary. Georgians have a constitutional right to privacy, and should have access to safe, legal abortions."

Believes "We need to make laws that  create pathways instead of barriers to citizenship. We need laws that keep families together instead of tearing them apart."

Said "While sweeping changes on the federal level, including funding for scientific research on gun violence, are way overdue, there is also lots of work to be done on the State level. Loopholes that allow individuals to curtail background checks need to be closed. Licensing of guns should be mandated. The minimum age for purchasing a gun should be raised to 21 for all guns."

Believes that through "decriminalization of small quantities of cannabis products for personal use, Georgia could boost its economy through taxation and reduce the prison overcrowding that can be attributed to nonviolent, marijuana possession charges, which disproportionately affects people of color."

Believes "The disparity between low-income and high-income students needs to be addressed. We need solutions that seek to improve the public school system in Georgia. Academically, Georgia is behind, ranking 38th in the nation for education. It is imperative that we invest more in education by investing in our students and in our educators through dedicating more dollars per student in the budget and increasing teacher pay in Georgia."
