We know what works to reduce gun violence. Today, Democratic legislators urged our Republican colleagues to join us in taking immediate action to pass 1) Universal Background Checks 2) Mandatory Safe Storage and 3) Red Flag Protections. We don't have to live in fear.

As Atlanta recognizes the two-year anniversary of the day 8 people were killed in the spa shootings, the Georgia House of Representatives a voting on SB 140, banning most transgender treatment for minors. Insenstive timing to say the least. #gapol

The story of this murder-suicide is a story of an overwhelmed father -- a symptom of an underfunded, broken system. Georgia failed this family, and continues to fail many others just like it.

Sen. Sally Harrell tells her colleagues about her experience as the mother of a transgender child during the debate over SB 140. It would ban gender-affirming care for minors and criminalize healthcare workers who perform the procedures. #gapol

This was a fun video to make! Thank you @GeorgiaVoices for documenting my wholesome, midwestern childhood!
We're bringing back our popular When I Was a Kid video series! Senator @sallyharrellga kicks it off with a look at the freedom of being a child and how spaghetti became a core memory.

Sen @sallyharrellga, who recently introduced the Reproductive Freedom Act said, “This amendment would enshrine reproductive freedom in the State Constitution, protecting Georgians’ rights no matter the whims of legislators out of touch with what the majority of Georgians want.”

This week we recognized Mental Health Awareness Day. Over 1,000 people came to the Capitol and made lots of noise! I told advocates, "We need you to live your story, share your story, and use your story to advocate for change." #Togetherformentalhealth #GARecovers #gapol

About 40 people got up early this morning at St. Luke's Presbyterian Church in Dunwoody to hear about what's happening at the Georgia Legislature. That's commitment!
Honored to join my colleagues for a bi-partisan Legislative Town Hall this morning at St. Luke’s Presbyterian in Dunwoody #gapol

Today I addressed the Senate about a tragedy - an overwhelmed father killed his young adult autistic daughter, then killed himself. GA is not funding services that are need. 7000 families are waiting for services and workers are underpaid. GA must do better. #gapol

During December and before the 2nd Monday in January, which is the official start of the GA Legislature, I take time to meet with elected officials from GA Senate 40's cities, counties and school boards. We had a lively discussion in Doraville, where change is happening! #gapol
Yesterday @geierman and members of City Council met with our @GA_Legislature officials @longxtran @sallyharrellga and representatives from our federal leaders' offices, @RepHankJohnson @ossoff to discuss Doraville's priorities and goals for the upcoming legislative sessions.

Unlike the US Congress, I expect tomorrow's "gavel-in" of the GA Legislature and the election of the GA House Speaker to go smoothly. Of course, that might have a little something to do with a certain football game in California certain legislators want to attend. #gapol

No Christmas in NY this year. My NY in-laws are down with COVID. We've moved from BA.5 to the BQ.1s. Trailing behind are posssibly the XBBs. Personally, I'm ready for some good old-fashioned southern BBQ!
