2021-2022 Legislative Focus
Protecting Voter Rights:
Topline priority: Protecting voter rights. Following the results of the November 3rd, 2020 election, we expect that there will be attacks on voter rights. Our main focus during the legislative session will be to defend access to the ballot and voter rights.
Fight for Reproductive Rights & Women's Rights:
Topline priority: Advancing protections and services for pregnant women in Georgia through expanding postpartum Medicaid coverage to one year. Our legislative work will also include fighting for additional protections for pregnant women within the criminal legal system.
Fighting for Criminal Legal System Reform:
Topline priority: Accountability work surrounding the newly elected sheriffs and district attorneys in the metro-Atlanta and Athens areas. In the state legislature, we will continue to advance cannabis reform.
Fighting for Redistricting Reform:
Topline priority: Creating transparency and public accessibility in the redistricting process. Our focus will be on making the redistricting process as publicly accessible and transparent as possible through community education efforts and legislative advocacy.
