Georgia State Senator for District 7.
Candidate for Insurance Commissioner of Georgia.

GOOD NEWS!
I am running for Insurance Commissioner to fight for everyday Georgians drowning under high insurance premiums and denied coverage.
Under John King, Georgians are losing their healthcare and being ripped off. John is a puppet for insurance companies - it's time to fire him.
Join me.
Georgia elections are under attack. The FBI raid at the Fulton County elections office isn’t just about the 2020 elections.

Trump is setting the stage to rig 2026 because they know they can’t win fair and square. Y’all, we are going to have to fight this thing with everything we got. 🔥

Our Constitution is under attack. Congress must protect it to protect the future of Georgia and our country.

This is 5-year-old Liam Ramos. When I look at him, I see my own son. Right now, Liam is locked in a detention center with his father who entered the US legally and has a pending asylum case. This should never have happened! The whole nation is watching and we will bring Liam home.

I am honored to have the support of many of my Senate colleagues who have been working tirelessly to bring costs down for Georgians and push back against greedy corporations. As Insurance Commissioner, I’ll work everyday to fix our broken insurance system, lower costs, and fight for all Georgians.

It’s clear that Insurance Commissioner John King has failed to protect us from predatory insurance prices. Even the Republican Chairman, Matt Hatchett, agrees that insurance companies are abusing us.
January 22, 2026 at 3:58 AM
Insurance Commissioner John King admits he doesn’t want the regulatory authority to fight against rate hikes from greedy insurance companies and that’s because he’s an insurance puppet.

If King is too much of a coward to do his job, he can just give it to me and I’ll do it.

Today’s new ACA “deal” in Congress is meaningless for the 1.4 million Georgians who rely on the ACA and for all Georgians facing skyrocketing insurance premiums. Georgia needs major insurance reform, starting with the office of the Insurance Commissioner.

Tonight is the last night of open enrollment and too many Georgians still can't afford health coverage. That's why I co-sponsored SB379 to use state subsidies to lower insurance premiums and healthcare costs. Georgians deserve a healthcare system that works for them, not the insurance companies.

Safe Spaces Matter!

Yesterday, I introduced legislation, SB 391, barring ICE from entering our schools, hospitals, places of worship, libraries, and family violence shelters, without a warrant.

I’m proud to work to ensure stronger oversight of ICE in our communities.

For 4 years, John King let insurance companies ignore our mental health law. They kept denying care and overcharging us. He only started fining them AFTER I announced my run against him. Too late. He failed us, and in November, we're firing him!

First day of session in the books!
Insurance companies are price-gouging hard-working Georgians. I'm fighting back and I won't stop until premiums are affordable for all Georgians.

From health insurance to home/auto coverage, Georgians are facing an affordability crisis. Premiums are skyrocketing, coverage is shrinking, claims are being denied, and many families have nowhere to turn. I’m running for Insurance Commissioner to lower costs and get Georgians the coverage they need

My goal as Insurance Commissioner is simple: lower costs for everyday Georgians.

I’m glad the House passed the ACA subsidies extension, which will lower health insurance premiums.

Meanwhile, John King has never supported extending the subsidies that help 1 million Georgians afford coverage.

Renee Nicole Good was a mom to a six-year-old who was trying to protect her neighbors from being stolen by ICE, and they shot her in the face.

Make no mistake Renee was murdered by ICE. The Trump administration is complicit in her cruel death. ICE must be held accountable.

My office sent AG Carr a letter requesting answers about Adriana Smith, a brain-dead GA woman kept on life support to sustain her pregnancy.

Pregnant Georgians, medical professionals, & all citizens deserve clarity on how the state treats patients’ bodies & whether ethical care risks prosecution.

Video proof shows that Mehendra Patel never tried to kidnap a child. Yet he has been held in jail for over 40 days w/o bond. All charges need to be dropped & he needs to be immediately released. He is an innocent man who was falsely accused of a crime he did not commit.

Today I am announcing that I am running for Chair of the Democratic Party of Georgia. I’m running because we need bold leadership who won’t back down from a fight. I will hold the GOP’s feet to the fire and fight to elect Democrats up and down the ballot. I hope you will join me.

This is not America first. Palestinians deserve to live in peace in their homeland and our American troops deserve not to be ripped away from their families and sent to the Middle East.
