A Policy Platform for a Thriving, Equitable Georgia

We support candidates committed to building a state where every resident has a real opportunity to thrive. Our platform centers economic mobility through five key pillars—with equity, access, and community power at the core.

Pillar 1: Housing & Community Stability

Economic mobility starts with the right to stay and thrive in your community.

• Increase affordable housing and prevent displacement through rent control, tenant protections, and lower AMI thresholds.

• Support land trusts, co-ops, flexible zoning, and audit housing programs for equity and access.

• Require Community Benefits Agreements and stop public land giveaways without inclusive input.

• Ensure ADA-compliant housing and infrastructure to support disabled residents' independence and participation.

Pillar 2: Public Safety & Community Well-Being

Invest in care, not punishment, to ensure safe, thriving neighborhoods for all.

• End arrests for misdemeanors, eliminate anti-Black ordinances, and fund violence interruption programs.

• Reject militarized policing and surveillance targeting marginalized communities.

• Guarantee sanctuary protections, end ICE collaboration, and ensure safe city services for immigrants.

• Expand mental health care, harm reduction, and clean energy solutions to support health and sustainability.

Pillar 3: Jobs, Wages & Economic Justice

Build a just economy where workers, not corporations, come first.

• Support union jobs, local businesses, co-ops, returning citizens, and city hiring equity.

• Reject privatization of public services and pass a living wage for city workers.

• Use fair taxation on the wealthy to invest in workforce development and social programs.

• Prioritize disabled residents in hiring and workforce development strategies.

Pillar 4: Government Transparency & Civic Power

A responsive government accountable to the people—not profit or corruption.

• Make budgets, contracts, and lobbying activity fully public and use tech to track spending and prevent fraud.

• Avoid unethical vendors and protect constituent privacy and data.

• Expand voting access, defend civic rights, and involve community and disabled-led organizations in planning and policy.

Pillar 5: Health, Access & Environmental Justice

A city where every resident can live well—physically, mentally, and environmentally.

• Ensure clean water, green energy, and lead-free environments in schools and homes.

• Expand mental health care, reentry support, and access to healthy, culturally relevant food in public institutions.

• Fund community-based disability services including mental health, mobility, communication, and emergency preparedness.
