2/ In Georgia, AMP supported @georgiayouthco.bsky.social as they knocked more than 110K doors to flip TWO public service commission races and lower utility costs for  families. This is the first time Democrats have won a non-federal statewide race in nearly 20 years!

When we organize, we win.
When we show up, we change what’s possible.
When we lead with courage, Georgia turns out.

Last night’s victory was proof that when we fight for each other in Georgia, we can never lose.

Here’s what many folks can’t tell you today because the NY Times and the Associated Press didn’t even cover our election results last night: 22 counties that voted for Donald Trump in 2024 just voted for Alicia Johnson last night.

Tim Echols tried to denigrate Dr. Alicia Johnson as a “DEI specialist” and then he doubled down, telling Georgia voters, “That’s not a dog whistle, it’s a whistle.” Well, Georgia heard it—and voted for equity and affordability instead.

This year, GYJC showed up in Fayette County day in and day out, showing up at school board meetings and pushing back on the politics of white supremacy that led white students to show up in blackface to a volleyball game just two months ago.

Once the reddest county in Georgia in 1980 for Ronald Reagan, Fayette’s transformation shows what happens when communities organize—not just every two years or every four years, but every week of every year, in rooms where power is built and defended.

In Fayette County alone, GYJC made 6,792 calls in the final two days, delivering a 3,025 vote margin of victory, flipping the county for the first time in nearly 50 years.

The last time Fayette voted for a Democrat? 1976, when our beloved Governor Jimmy Carter was running for President.

Those possibilities became reality last night when for the first time in nearly twenty years, Democrats won a statewide race at the state level in Georgia.

This victory wasn’t by chance—it was built door by door, call by call, by young organizers who refused to give up on Georgia.

@gasenatedems.com let us know what you have planned next 👀

“At least let democracy have some daylight in this august chamber.” - Leader Harold Jones II

Lt. Gov Burt Jones may have called @gasenatedems.com out of order, but we know that’s just a cover to stop good trouble in Georgia and silence opposition against #HB27. This fight ain't over y'all. 12/12

“I rise to oppose #SB36. I grew up in Catholicism and it has been a wellspring of how to treat people... While we are allowed to believe as we choose, we have to respect the way that others believe and not impose our values on others, especially when it causes harm.” - Rep Marvin Lim on #RFRA. 4/x

“If this bill is about stopping religious discrimination, then why were amendments to ban discrimination repeatedly rejected?” - @ruwaromman.bsky.social pointing out the hypocrisy of #SB36 and the Georgia GOP's so-called religious freedom bill. 3/x

“We cannot keep messing with people’s lives like this.” - @ruwaromman.bsky.social speaking powerfully about the role government ought to play in our lives compared to the role this Georgia General Assembly actually plays with bills like #SB36 that provide a license to discriminate. 2/x

The Mayor Office's announcement fulfills a key demand from the astroturfing NIMBY group Better Atlanta Transit and developer Portman Holdings just days after Dickens launched his reelection campaign.

Since the 2016 passage of the More MARTA referendum, exactly zero projects promised have opened!
