Issue Position: Good Governance

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2016

I truly believe that Georgians have become tired of partisan bickering from elected officials. Georgians want the state government to operate efficiently to make their lives better on a daily basis.

It is only the small minority of the loudest of us that wish to see our legislative bodies turned into arenas for partisan grandstanding and obstruction.

State government is not a vehicle to push a hyper-political agenda. There is a time for politics. And believe me, when that time comes I will work as hard as anyone to make sure Democrats once again are the governing party of Georgia.

But state government is more important than politics. It is how we fund our schools, our roads and bridges. It's how we make sure college is affordable and taxes are spent wisely. Partisanship should not stand in the way of good policy decisions that will move our state forward.

As your representative, I promise to continue to put forward common sense ideas to make sure the state government is operating in the most efficient and effective way to make your life better. Together, we can continue make sure the civility and level headedness is not a rarity at the Gold Dome.
