This headline scares me to my core.
As a parent, the last thing I want is for my children to be in an environment surrounded by guns.
Stop playing with our kids' lives, @burtjonesforga. They are not fodder for your political ambitions.
I am seeing red right now. #gapol

This is awful news for Georgians who are already struggling to access life saving reproductive healthcare. With half our counties lacking an OBGYN and our state having one of the highest maternal mortality rates, this ruling threatens the life and wellbeing of Georgians. #GAPol
The Georgia Supreme Court reversed a Fulton judge’s ruling that the state’s anti-abortion law was void because Roe v. Wade was in effect when the law passed in 2019. The decision was 6-1 in favor, with Justice Ellington dissenting. #gapol

#MomsEqualPayDay marks the number of additional days a mom must work into the next year to make as much as a dad did in the previous year.
We will end the pay gap by building the power of Democratic moms in elected office across the country. Let’s bring more moms to the table!
