  • "Roe v. Wade will be overturned and Marjorie Taylor Greene is celebrating. I’m disgusted. This is an assault on the rights of women across America. We cannot allow this to stand. We MUST expand our majority and codify this sacred right." (x.com)
  • "The Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade is an assault on the rights of women across America, which we cannot allow to stand. "We the People" means something and we must exercise our voices in November, and refuse to let our country be pushed back 50 years." (x.com)

Because constituents should feel confident that their representatives are serving them, not special interests. While working in government compliance, I spent a large portion of my career combating fraud, waste, and abuse. I’ll work just as hard in Congress to make sure your hard earned tax dollars are working for you." (marcusforgeorgia.com)

We must take care of the oldest members of our society, and we must value and invest in the men and women caring for them. This means families will be able to afford high quality care for their loved ones, and Georgians looking to work in the care economy will be able to access the training and benefits they deserve."
