While I watch #Debates2020, I'm going to share the ways the issues being discussed relate to my plans for Georgia. #gapol twitter.com/i/events/13186…

"We're not learning to live with it. We're dying."

Cases are climbing back up in Georgia. We need leaders who will provide clear guidance and listen to scientists. #Debates2020 wjcl.com/article/things…

I'm glad to hear them discuss the impact of this pandemic on schools. My glambaby just started school & I'm grateful they're working hard to keep him safe. We need resources to support our students & teachers. My opponent voted to defund education by $1 billion this year. #gapol

I agree with the President that one person shouldn't have unilateral control of how we slow the virus' spread.

Unfortunately in Georgia, Governor Kemp usurped local control to block my own county from following White House guidelines to keep us safe.

Foreign interference remains a threat to our election integrity.

Meanwhile Georgia opted to buy expensive and hackable election machines. I'll advocate for paper ballots like I did on the Board of Elections. #Debates2020

Speaking of campaign donors, I'm proud that my average donation is under $30.

My opponent takes checks from bail bondsmen, tobacco companies, and fossil fuel companies.

I don't take corporate PAC money. My campaign is powered by the people. #Debates2020 #PeoplePower

The GOP is playing politics with our healthcare, and they don't have a real plan.

Instead of expanding Medicaid, my opponent is backs a plan that will cover less people & cost more.

He even supports a work requirement. During an unemployment crisis and pandemic. #Debates2020

Healthcare is a racial justice issue. Medicaid expansion has been shown to close the gap and reduce disparities. #BlackLivesMatter

Georgia has the lowest minimum wage in the country. Raise it.

Trump separated families. In Georgia, people in detention centers are having forced hysterectomies.

This is inhumane. My opponent and the Republican Party remained silent. #gapol #Debates2020

I'm a mom of seven and glamma of nine. I've had the talk. Too many times. That's why I march.

#BlackLivesMatter

Mass incarceration as a tool of systemic racism has caused irreparable harm.

I worked to undo its damage by ending cash bail locally. My opponent sponsored a bill to undo that criminal justice reform. #Debates2020 #EndCashBail

Across the world, politicians bought by fossil fuels companies are selling our children's future.

My opponent receives contributions from the owner of America's dirtiest coal plant. #Debates2020

Read my plan for #EnvironmentalJustice: mokahforgeorgia.com/wp-content/upl…

I'm proud to be endorsed by the @AsianAAF. We need leaders who will celebrate diversity.

Calling entire countries names, from "shithole" to "filthy" is hateful and unacceptable from the President of the United States. #Debates2020

Communities of color suffer the consequences when we refuse to hold big polluters accountable.

This is happening in Georgia, where companies are allowed to dispose of toxic coal ash improperly and hurt our communities.

Environmental justice now.

There's so much on the line. From racial justice to COVID19, we need leaders who will truly serve the people.

Remember to vote all the way down the ballot. If you live in Georgia State House District 117, I'd be honored to earn your vote. #Debates2020
