Issues
Johnson's campaign website listed the following issues:[1]

- Excerpt: "I know that a community without jobs is a community without enough opportunities. I will work with local governments of the 7th District, private businesses and community leaders to help bring jobs to the 7th District."
- Education
- Excerpt: "To improve schools we must close the funding and achievement gap. I will work to simultaneously do both; one is need to achieve the other."
