While Republicans in Congress remain more fixated on pushing through Trump’s tariffs, voting for endless wars and cutting your healthcare than doing work that helps the American people, I remain focused on the constituents I represent and taking care of home first. Even when Congress is not in session, my work for the people of Georgia’s Fourth Congressional District never stops.

ATLANTA, GA — Today, four of the five members of the Georgia U.S. House of Representatives Democrat delegation and Rep. Joe Morelle of New York, the Ranking Member of the Committee on House Administration that oversees federal elections, sent a letter to the Georgia State Election Board pushing back on its Sept. 30 letter to the Department of Justice seeking their intervention in the state’s voting machines ahead of the November midterms elections, which are now in just 27 days. 


 

What to Expect When You Go to the Polls

Free, fair, and secure elections are the foundation of American democracy. Every eligible voter deserves the chance to have their voice heard, free from intimidation, and have confidence our election systems will remain protected from interference. As your Representative in Georgia's Fourth Congressional District, I am committed to protecting your vote, safeguarding our elections, and defending American voting rights.
