1. Restoring Common Sense and Stability The chaos has to stop. Too often, our leaders push quick fixes or extreme ideas that create more problems than they solve. Chris believes that government should focus on practical, balanced solutions — not partisan fights. When policies cause more harm than good, they’re the wrong policies. It’s time for common-sense leadership that listens, learns, and works for the people of Georgia.

---

2. Strengthening Public Education It all begins with education. A strong public education system is the foundation for opportunity and success. Chris and his family are proud supporters of Georgia’s public schools and believe every child deserves access to a quality education — no matter their ZIP code. He will fight to: Support and retain great teachers. Empower parents to be active partners in their children’s education. Ensure students have the resources they need to learn, grow, and succeed. A good education opens doors — to college, to careers, and to brighter futures for all Georgia families.

---

3. Expanding Access to Affordable Healthcare Healthcare should not be a luxury item — it’s a necessity. Chris has seen firsthand how a single injury or illness can devastate a family financially or force someone to choose between their health and their job. He believes every Georgian should have access to affordable, quality healthcare and that no one should suffer or go bankrupt because they got sick. Chris will work to: Lower healthcare and prescription drug costs. Expand access to coverage, especially in rural and underserved communities. Protect working families from medical debt and financial ruin. Because in a state as prosperous as Georgia, no one should have to choose between their health and their future.

Barry Wolfert

Party: Democratic Party

Incumbent: No

Political Office: None

Submitted Biography:  "I am a small business owner & Cobb County resident fighting for an affordable and compassionate America that doesn't leave hardworking people behind. I am an ordinary, hard working American pursuing the American dream: work hard, own a home, provide for my family and enjoy a reasonable retirement. I am entering this race because I feel our country is off course and headed towards an irreparable outcome. It didn't start with Donald Trump but it has accelerated under him. It's time bring back citizen-led servant leadership; we need people in Congress who work in the real world everyday and not just "sympathize" with Americans but are one of them. When elected, I won't forget where I come from and I will make a promise right now to serve no more than 3 terms in the US House. We don't need any more career politicians."

As a self employed, self-insured person, I understand and feel firsthand the stress of ur current healthcare system. Having absorbed 10%-20% annual premium increases over the last 10+ years, I know how hard it is to find the money to pay for basic healthcare coverage. Now, with ACA subsidies at risk, we are all facing enormous and insurmountable costs that will either break us or force us to go without coverage. This system is broken.

---

As a person in their middle years, I also fully understand the prospect of NEVER being able to fully retire. Eve with the best efforts and luck, social security is now at risk of being insolvent within 7-8 years. No one can afford to see their benefits cut by 20%-25% and expect to be able to fully retire without worry. We MUST protect social security and medicare.

---

As a real estate agent for over 20 years, I deal with the housing affordability crisis on a daily basis. Not only is it almost impossible to find good homes due large corporations buying thousands of homes and keeping them off the market, being able to afford a monthly mortgage and downpayment is difficult at best and almost impossible for first time buyers.

Natalie Richoz

Party: Independent

Incumbent: No

Political Office: None

Submitted Biography:  "My name is Natalie and I am a wife, mother and grandmother who found time to complete nursing school with an RN. Protecting the Earth and healing humans has been my life's passion. I am an advocate of what is just and balanced in all things, from patient advocacy to human rights. I have lived in north Georgia, District 11, and have watched it evolve for over 50 years. I have seen first hand the struggles, growth and community we have built together through it. Now disabled from surviving a brain tumor, I see many facets of healthcare from both the provider and patient perspectives. From the nursing side, I have seen first-hand the effects of PTSD on our veterans and the dire need for mental health solutions for not just our military personnel, but also our children. I have also seen patients who cannot afford lifesaving medicine breakdown in tears because they knew the cost of life if they could not attain their medicine. From the patient side, I have now been that patient and have worked diligently to be as fully functioning as any able-bodied individual who endures not only surgery, but radiation treatment. I now intimately understand the need for healthcare reform in the United States."

Key Messages

---

We the People of District 11 deserve to be placed above special interest groups, business tax exemptions and billionaire bailouts.

---

It is our civic duty as representatives of the people to ensure that what CITIZENS invest in for their futures is never placed onto the chopping block of Congress again. These include but are not limited to Social Security, Veteran Benefits and Medicare/Medicaid.

---

While the District's high-income residents have access to more housing options, roughly 45% of the District's households with incomes below $75,000 are having increasing difficulty in finding suitable and affordable housing within our District. This is a multi-faceted problem that will require cooperation between the state and federal agencies.

Not only is it almost impossible to find good homes due large corporations buying thousands of homes and keeping them off the market, being able to afford a monthly mortgage and downpayment is difficult at best and almost impossible for first time buyers.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Chris Harden (D)

I am deeply committed to protecting the Constitution and ensuring that every individual’s Due Process Rights are upheld. Our justice system only works when it works for everyone. If one person’s due process is denied, then everyone’s rights are at risk. Without due process, we no longer live under the rule of law — we face a constitutional crisis.

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

As stated above, healthcare is my driving force. Everything from medical efficacy to patient advocacy deserves our fullest attention. Patients, American citizens, should be our highest priority... not Big Pharma, Medical or exorbitant insurance premiums. I have first hand experience with these needs to be addressed.

Barry Wolfert (D)

Healthcare, Social Security, Housing Affordability, Reproductive Freedom, Civil Rights Protections, Effective Foreign Policy, Human Rights For All, Controlled Government Spending, Tax Policy That Makes Everyone Pay Their Fair Share.

Who do you look up to? Whose example would you like to follow, and why?

Barry Wolfert (D)

I have found inspiration in a lot of people. These include Steve Jobs, Presidents Carter, Clinton, Obama, and Truman, John Lennon among many others.

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

Chris Harden (D)

An elected official should lead with integrity, humility, and a genuine commitment to serve others — not themselves.

For me, the most important qualities are honesty, accountability, and empathy. Voters deserve leaders who will tell them the truth, take responsibility for their decisions, and listen to the people they represent. An elected official should also have the courage to make tough choices — not just the politically easy ones — and the wisdom to recognize when compromise is the right path forward. Leadership isn’t about scoring points for a party; it’s about solving problems for people. Finally, an official must remember where they came from. I’ll never forget growing up in a small trailer in Rossville, or the hard-working families I’ve represented across Georgia. Those experiences keep me grounded. They remind me that every decision we make in government affects real people — their families, their health, and their future.

That’s the kind of leadership I believe in: honest, compassionate, and focused on solutions that make life better for everyone.

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

As an elected official representing my community, it is imperative to embody honesty, integrity and to live in Truth, whatever that Truth is to you. No two experiences, perspectives, or paths are the same. Above all else, BE A GOOD HUMAN.

Barry Wolfert (D)

Honesty, accessibility, transparency, truthfulness and leadership ability.

What do you believe are the core responsibilities for someone elected to this office?

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

The core responsibility for anyone elected as a "representative" is to honor those they represent with equality, to find common ground and sensible solutions inside the confines of Constitutional law and agreed upon ethical guidelines to all people.

Barry Wolfert (D)

Listen to ALL of their constituents and represent them fairly. Work hard to pass laws that me society better for everyone and address key issue of the day.

What legacy would you like to leave?

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

I am not sure about a "legacy" per se, but I do desire to leave the world in a better place/position than I found it.

Barry Wolfert (D)

That I did the best I could and stepped up when needed.

What is the first historical event that happened in your lifetime that you remember? How old were you at the time?

Barry Wolfert (D)

The first one I truly remember is President Nixon resigning. I was 6 years old.

What was your very first job? How long did you have it?

Barry Wolfert (D)

My very first "real" job was as a paperboy. I did it for 4-5 years. I delivered the newspaper to 50-75 households, 7 days a week. I loved it.

What is your favorite book? Why?

Chris Harden (D)

Monster at the End of the Book Staring Lovable Furry Old Grover. While it is a children's book the entertaining message embodies Seneca's philosophy "He who worries before it is necessary, suffers more than is necessary."

What qualities does the U.S. House of Representatives possess that makes it unique as an institution?

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

It truly is a House of the People. It is the voice they collectively select to send to our federal government to look out for their best interests, especially in reference to the funding as provided by all forms of collection, be it taxes or other. Representatives are duty bound to honor the Will of their constituents.

Do you believe that it's beneficial for representatives to have previous experience in government or politics?

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

Hell no! While some experience is appreciated in all things, in politics fresh and new ideas are lost through stagnation of those who have held their seats for over 10 years for example. In ten years, EVERYTHING changes, as CHANGE is the only Universal Constant to me.

Barry Wolfert (D)

No. I think it's more important for government to have a variety of people from different backgrounds and areas of knowledge so that we are collectively stronger.

What do you perceive to be the United States’ greatest challenges as a nation over the next decade?

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

Removing foreign interference from ALL branches of government, whether through stopping questionable funding or ending bribery, to removing .business lobbying that does not align with the highest benefit of citizens.

Barry Wolfert (D)

The divide between haves and have nots. We can not survive as a society or country if 95% of the wealth is held by 5% of the people. I believe this is greatest challenge we face and it has to be address in all areas of government involvement.

Do you believe that two years is the right term length for representatives?

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

Not always. Especially if a community has exploded with growth or a Representative is failing to serve its citizens highest benefit. The citizens need "continuity of care' just as in medicine. If the torch is not passed to another that also holds the citizens in high regard, a population can, and often does, become hurt from "too much growth to fast" due to someone not representing their best interests. And, when that businesses leave -- the population can be harshly effected.

Barry Wolfert (D)

It's in the Constitution. I don't think the Founding Fathers foresaw the money and influence that would corrupt and permeate the system.

What are your thoughts on term limits?

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

There should be no "life appointments". Running a country is difficult. Since the removal of Civic study from our schools many of our young do not understand the importance of "civic duty" as a citizen of a democratic republic, what makes "We the People" invaluable.

Barry Wolfert (D)

I believe that our system has become corrupt where longtime elected politicians have too much money and power to retain a hold on their office. I don't know if a law limiting terms is the best solution but I will declare from day one that I will not serve more than three (3) full terms in the House.

Is there a particular representative, past or present, whom you want to model yourself after?

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

No. I only want to be the best Representative I can for the people of District 11. THEY are the guideposts.

Do you believe that compromise is necessary or desirable for policymaking?

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

Absolutely. What we lack is sincerity of that compromise. Compromise is defined as an agreement or a settlement of a dispute that is reached by each side making concessions. Those "concessions" should not have harm to the citizen at the forefront.

Barry Wolfert (D)

Yes. Compromise is necessary to reach mutually beneficial decisions. We can't have a "my way or the highway" approach to policymaking.

The Constitution says that all bills for raising revenue must originate in the House. What role would this power play in your priorities if elected?

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

This effort would be guided by my Districts needs first.

How should the U.S. House use its investigative powers?

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

The House of Representatives must conduct robust, fact-based inquiries that are bipartisan in nature and oriented toward a clear legislative purpose for the people they represent. Investigations are a critical component of congressional oversight and help hold the Executive Branch and other entities accountable within the confines of the already existing laws of the land.

What is an accomplishment that you are proud of?

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

Learning to walk again after a surgery to remove a 4cm (golf ball) meningioma from my brain.

Barry Wolfert (D)

I have raised amazing children to become amazing people.

What role should the United States government have in the development or use of artificial intelligence?

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

I heard a statement not long ago that "China produces 100 brains (educated people) for each one in the US".

That is scary to think about for many.

Without improving upon our educational system in the US, we will be left as labor for those countries that learn and utilize technology in leaps and bounds.

With that said, AI lacks discernment.

We can teach AI all day long but if we do not understand how they can be utilized to assist us, they will only be utilized to not only infringe upon the protected sovereignty of our citizens, but also used to prey on our children. We are going to be in a very dark place shying away from bolstering our collective education in STEM.

American citizens cannot handle the tangible, like keeping firearms away from our children. Allowing something intangible to access citizens freely, their information, their data, makes them very vulnerable to bad actors and predatory Big Business.

The rights afforded by the Constitution, and all agreed upon laws of our land should govern AI. Notifying our citizens IN AN OBVIOUS, up front, way of how their data is being utilized by all players should be a priority. It should remain the right of the citizen to allow disclosure or not.

The US needs greater data protection capabilities to avoid further exploitation by bad actors.

When we can do that , then we can broach how AI can slowly begin helping our society. Think about it. We are talking about AI and there are citizens in our country who don't have clean water to drink.

What legislation would you enact related to election administration in the United States?

Natalie Richoz (Independent)

While I understand state's rights, state's rights do not always measure up equally across the land. Because we do have federal elections, I believe the federal government can help bring about uniformity across the nation in regards to elections. Access. Location. Voting machines should not be chosen because a colleague owns the patent, or this group doesn't trust the ballot being taken by a machine.

So, further uniformity across the machines for one.

Number two, I never believe you need a "middle man" to talk to your Divine. So, "as above, so below", we do NOT need an Electoral College. For most Americans, that's a form of political gatekeeping and some very dishonest actions have been taken by those who are electorates.

It is time to get honest with Americans.
