Atlanta Intown Paper

As a city council member, she supported building a $90 million police and firefighter training facility on 85 acres of the Old Atlanta Prison Farm that the city previously set aside as greenspace. The facility, nicknamed "Cop City" by activists, is widely opposed by residents, businesses and environmental nonprofits.

As a city council member, she voted against withholding $73 million from the Atlanta Police Department's budget until Mayor Keisha Lance Bottom’s administration drafted a plan to reform policing.

As a city council member, authored an opinion article, not calling to defund the police but instead "root out bad cops," admit that systemic racism does exist and reform law enforcement.

Supports revising the training process to address discrimination and racism in the Atlanta Police Department and establishing more accountability and transparency on police misconduct.

Plans to require body cameras, ban choke-holds and no-knock warrants and focus more on neighborhood policing.
