Why I’m Running for Congress in Georgia’s 5th District

Fighting for a Party that Puts People First

I’m running for Congress in Georgia’s 5th District because the Democratic Party has abandoned its roots, prioritizing corporate interests over working-class people. It’s time to reclaim our party and stand unapologetically for economic justice, civil rights, and transformative, meaningful change.

Our campaign is committed to:

  • Rejecting all corporate donations to ensure loyalty only to the working class.
  • Fighting relentlessly for affordable healthcare, higher wages, and economic dignity.
  • Championing civil rights and true equity—beyond incremental change.
  • Building grassroots movements that hold leaders accountable.

The Urgency of Real Change

A Party at a Crossroads

  • Too many Democratic leaders accept the status quo while our bills rise, wages stagnate, and healthcare remains unaffordable.

Standing with the Working Class

  • Unlike politicians backed by corporate donors, I stand with renters, families, and working-class residents of GA-05.

The Need for Immediate Action

  • Incrementalism is inadequate—our community needs urgent, substantial change to thrive.

Our Vision for Transformative Politics

Political Multiplier for Change

  • Leveraging technology and grassroots organizing to create a more inclusive and accessible political process.

Cleaning House

  • Ending corporate influence to reconnect the Democratic Party with the everyday lives of working people.

Building a Movement

  • Creating coalitions that demand accountability and prioritize community needs.

Why This Fight Matters

  • This campaign isn’t just about winning; it’s about building lasting power for working-class people.
  • It’s about reclaiming the Democratic Party for the people—not corporate interests.

Join Our Fight

Together, we can reclaim our future and build a party that genuinely represents all of us.

Stand with us and fight for a Democratic Party rooted in dignity, justice, and true representation.
