GEORGIA DESERVES MORE FROM ITS REPRESENTATIVES.  ADAM IS RUNNING FOR HIS FAMILY AND FOR YOURS.

Pillar 1: Defending Our Votes

Georgia's votes are under direct attack from a president actively seeking to end the constitutional republic and democracy as our system of government. States controlling their own voting processes are part of the checks and balances that keep our country free, and our right to vote is fundamental to who we are as a nation. We must protect the voting independence of Georgians above all else — secure, accessible elections where every single vote is counted, free from interference.

Pillar 2: Empowering Georgia's People

Our government works better when it answers to voters, not career politicians. That means reducing or ending the career-politician pipeline that has led so many representatives to betray our basic rights. Term limits, ranked choice voting, independent district maps, and lowered barriers to third-party and non-party candidates are all possible in this state, but only a representative with ambitions to change the system and then leave the system will ever offer us those options we deserved all along.

Pillar 3: Health Care & Medical Freedom

Health Care and Fiscal Responsibility

Georgians deserve medical care without financial ruin. In addition to efforts to reduce the staggering new costs of business and personal health insurance plans, Georgia must immediately opt-in for Medicaid Expansion to bring our own tax dollars back to Georgia. The Republican-passed alternative spent 90% of its 2025 tax-funded budget on administrative and consulting costs. Medicaid pays out approximately 80% of its funding for patients' treatments. No responsible legislator should subject Georgians to a plan that costs more to deliver less.

Reproductive and Medical Freedom

All Georgians deserve to be in charge of their own medical decisions. The government has no business threatening physicians or women for medical choices they make together. Further, Georgia's politicians have allowed our own Centers for Disease Control — a leading world resource in medical threat prevention — to be defunded, barred from valuable research, and physically attacked. In the state legislature, I will defend the rights of Georgians to have access to accurate health information and to make their own health care decisions, and I will work to reinstitute the CDC as a fully funded and valued shield for the people of Georgia.

Pillar 4: Solving Problems for Georgia

Public Education

I'm a product of Georgia public schools from birth through law school (Go Dawgs!). We must ensure the next generations have the same opportunities we did — and to do that we must strengthen our public schools. Our educators are asked to do a challenging, vital job while our Republican lawmakers seek to bleed our school systems of revenue through private school vouchers and removing their funding pillars without replacement sources of income. I believe in public funds going to public resources, not private choices. This includes special education and programming so that all of Georgia’s children are supported in learning. We must give our teachers a raise and take aim at making Georgia's public schools the best in the country.

Environmental Responsibility

I didn't earn a degree in biology just to ignore the findings of scientists worldwide about our environment and mankind's impact on it. Our planet is feeling the increasing effects of climate change, but our corrupt Republican representatives refuse to address the changes necessary to mitigate it. At a minimum, Georgia should cut all tax breaks from new or recent data centers — which actively harm their surrounding ecosystems — and channel those funds into incentive programs for household and large-scale renewable energy resources. We don't have to be California, but we deserve better than what our legislature has permitted.

Gun Safety

Forcing our schools to increasingly resemble prisons in response to mass shootings is a pathetic non-response to the number one cause of child death in our country. We need responsible gun-ownership laws and we need them now. I support common-sense measures like red flag laws for all gun sales, background checks, achievable and practical safe storage requirements, and firearm restrictions for domestic-violence offenders.

Home Ownership

Our future generations deserve a chance to make their homes in Georgia as we did. But with the median age of first home ownership now at 41, our children and grandchildren are unlikely to have the chance to build their lives near us. If we want to keep our families together and want the next generation to have an opportunity to invest in their own futures, we need to increase home inventories by all means.
