I look up to my Grandmother, Mrs. Gladys S. Acree. She raised 5 young kids as a single mom upon the death of her husband. Each of them grew into very productive and successful citizens. She maintained her work ethic and civic engagement as well. As a current single mom I often reflect upon stories shared with me from my mom & her siblings about their up bringing. If my Grandmother made it through with a handful of five I am sure I will be okay with my trio!
Accessible, Responsive, Visible service to the constituents.
I want to inspire the next generation to continue to soar to reach their dreams by asking the wise question, helping others and never settling for mediocrity.
Baby Shark
In any relationship trust and communication are paramount. Proper steps to show integrity of governance should be performed by each legislative body through clear communication.
I believe the state of Georgia is on the verge of becoming the Hollywood of the south. With this new industry growth will bring in new residents who will set a demand for my home state to move from its conservative position and become the true beacon of economic, transportation, environmental justice.
I believe having a single chamber of rule removes any accountability from ensuring the marginalized minority concerns are heard. While it may be economical and ensure policy is quickly passed it does not allow for the debate of the issue which is the definition of politics.
While it could have its advantage for legislators to have political experience, I believe that a representative should reflect the electorate of which it serves. The common layman does not have dealings in government. A state legislator just needs to be savvy enough to ensure that the constituents needs are being met and that message is relied back to them.
It is absolutely key to have working relationships with other team mates. The prevailing interest of legislators are their constituents. With this commonality of service each legislator can find a mutual point of agreement.
I think waiting ten years for lines to be redrawn does not best reflect the highly transitional communities of interest that are developing across our nation. District lines should be drawn fairly by law. District lines should be determined by the local majority. District lines should be drawn after taking input from the citizens within the district.
My committee interest are Education, Creative Arts & Entertainment and Small Business Development
Certainly, I would pattern myself after former POTUS Barack Obama. My model would be Stacey Abrams!
I am taking it one day at a time for now. I want to always remain in service to my community. If those I represent would like to continue to see me in elected public service then I remain there.
From a single mom I heard that she had to make the painful choice of not returning to work during COVID as she could not afford childcare as school was virtual. Childcare should be allotted so that moms can earn a living. Even if we make work skill courses available to older children to empower them to be available to watch the younger ones.
I do believe that negotiations should be made to keep all stakeholders' interest managed. However for the good of the common there will be some give and take.
