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…

The path to flipping the Georgia State House runs straight through my district. We can win this, but I need your help to reach every voter in the final days of this campaign.

medium.com/@mokahforgeorg… In the past two years, Georgians have been victims of violent attacks because of their identities. Anthony Gooden Jr. and Marquez Tolbert were burnt with scalding water because they are gay. Maura Binkley was shot and killed in her yoga class for being a woman. #UniteAgainstHate
