The Senate ‘deal’ is nothing more than a surrender to Trump’s reckless and cruel agenda that will rip away healthcare from millions of Georgians. I am outraged that Trump is using starving children and families as political pawns—all while Kemp refuses to grow a backbone and stand up for Georgians.

For Trump and his cronies, the cruelty is the point. While the Trump administration refuses to fund SNAP, our state leaders are failing to step up and fill the gap. Kemp— fund food assistance now.

We’re out here in Columbus celebrating our service members and the strength of our community! It was a pleasure to join the 26th Annual Tri-City Veterans Day Parade with the Muscogee Dems. Thank you to all of our veterans for your sacrifice and service.

It was great sitting down with @knowadebaraso.bsky.social to talk about my vision for a thriving Georgia and the coalition we’re building across the state.

It has been 9 days since I called on Governor Kemp to release emergency funds for SNAP. Families in Georgia are left in limbo, unsure how much aid they’ll get or when it’ll arrive. Meanwhile, Kemp sits on a $14.6 billion surplus. www.fox5atlanta.com/news/snap-re...

I’m tired of Georgians working harder than ever and barely getting by because politicians, including my Democratic and Republican opponents, have failed and abandoned us.

Congratulations to Mayor Andre Dickens on his reelection to lead our great city for four more years. I’ve been proud to work with Mayor Dickens, and I look forward to seeing Atlanta’s continued progress under his leadership. www.ajc.com/news/2025/11...

Congratulations to Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard on their incredible wins for Public Service Commission. Victories like this lay the foundation for winning statewide in 2026 and for delivering real relief to Georgia families struggling with rising costs.

Turnout is heavier than expected in Atlanta this morning, but the line at my polling location was moving quickly! Georgians are tired of high power bills and not having a voice on the PSC. That changes today. Get out and vote for Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard today!

80 of Georgia’s 159 counties lack a full-time OBGYN. Mothers have to travel over an hour or more just to get prenatal care. It’s unacceptable. As governor, I’ll expand maternal healthcare access so mothers and babies can get the care they need. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

A beautiful Sunday morning in the pews of Allen Temple AME. Grateful for the fellowship, the powerful message, and the reminder that faith, service, and family are at the heart of our fight for a better Georgia.

I had a great time speaking with @authorrandallb.bsky.social for @clutchpoints.bsky.social about investing in HBCUs, the Atlanta Hawks, and how playing basketball has shaped my leadership style on and off the court.

Took a break from the campaign trail to take the kids out trick or treating. Happy Halloween, everyone! Have fun and stay safe tonight.

Millions of Georgia families will suffer when SNAP benefits run out on Saturday — and Governor Kemp is sitting on a $14.6 billion surplus instead of tackling the crisis. As governor, I’ll take immediate action to lower costs to keep Georgia families from going hungry.

With SNAP benefits set to expire this Saturday, many families in Georgia will be in dire need of support. My team has put together a list of food pantries across the state.

The closure of St Mary’s Sacred Heart’s Hospitals labor and delivery unit is a direct result of Republicans’ refusal to fund healthcare and extend ACA tax credits. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

The Trump admin could act today to keep Georgia families fed but instead they’re using hunger as political leverage. 1.3 million Georgians rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families. www.ajc.com/news/2025/10...

Nurturing the next generation of leaders starts today. Yesterday, I had the honor of meeting with incredible young men from the Jack and Jill of Atlanta Leadership Program. Their drive, curiosity, and vision for the future give me hope for what’s ahead.

Before I ever ran for office, I was a public school teacher. That experience changed my life. It hammered home for me what I knew from my own life experience – that education is the foundation of opportunity.

Grateful to be in DeKalb County tonight for the NAACP’s Freedom Gala honoring those who paved the way and recommitting to advancing justice, equity, and opportunity for every community.

The energy, pride, and Tiger spirit that fills Savannah State University’s community is palpable. As GA’s 1st public HBCU and the 1st institution of higher learning in Savannah, SSU is a cornerstone of excellence and opportunity for generations of students.

I love Savannah so much, I had to come back for a third time! We’re continuing our statewide tour in Midtown Savannah with a stop at TAB Bistro.

Republicans’ refusal to extend ACA subsidies will hurt working families and devastate Georgia’s economy. Soon, we could lose: ➡️ 36,000 jobs ➡️ Health coverage for 460,000 Georgians This isn’t fiscal responsibility, it’s cruelty.

Nearly 382,000 Georgians could lose SNAP benefits because of the Trump administration's reckless and cruel cuts — leaving children, families and communities at risk. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

Wishing a joyful Diwali to everyone celebrating across Georgia! May this Festival of Lights bring you and your loved ones peace, prosperity, and happiness.

Had a fun time in the Little 5 Points Halloween parade today where the creativity was on full display! L5P is a vibrant community that shows when we support our local shops and creators, we’re investing in the neighborhoods that make Georgia shine

It’s SpelHouse Homecoming weekend, and you already know the energy is unmatched! Excited to celebrate community and Black excellence with the Morehouse and Spelman families.

Happy birthday, Mom! My mom has always been my greatest champion. Her strength, love, and compassion have been a model for me and so many.

Georgia families are being hit with massive ACA price hikes, some premiums quadrupling overnight. No one should have to choose between health care and paying their bills. As governor, I’ll fight to lower costs and protect access for every Georgian. www.ajc.com/news/2025/10...

Big dawg energy in Athens last night! Thank you to the UGA Dems for showing up, speaking out, and believing in a better Georgia. Let’s keep that momentum going! Together, we’re building something powerful.

Had an absolute blast in Athens!I loved meeting so many passionate folks and sharing ways we can move Georgia forward together. Big thanks to everyone who showed up, you made it an evening to remember!

I’m proud to have introduced legislation to help seniors save on property taxes, which is on the ballot this November. Across the state, skyrocketing costs have forced Georgians to make impossible decisions. It's time we lower costs and deliver relief. atlantadailyworld.com/2025/10/14/j...

Beyond honored to be endorsed by Jason Carter. From lowering healthcare and housing costs to investing in schools and small businesses, I’m ready to hit the ground running. Georgia deserves leadership that puts people first, and that’s exactly what I’ll do as governor.

Our state’s strength comes from the people who keep it running — the workers who teach our kids, build our roads, and care for our families. I’ll be a governor who fights for them every single day.

Got plans Wednesday, Athens? Now you do! Looking forward to talking to some Dawgs about the priorities that matter most to you and your families. RSVP to save your spot! secure.jasonesteves.com/a/athens-mee...

Indigenous history is American history, and today we take time to honor, celebrate, and uplift the voices that have led for generations. Happy Indigenous Peoples’ Day!

Celebrating love, joy, and equality at the Atlanta Pride Parade.!🏳️‍🌈 I’m proud to stand with Georgia’s LGBTQ+ community and will always fight for equality, dignity, and freedom for everyone who calls Georgia home!

Had an amazing time at the Douglas County Democrats Decades of Democracy Dinner surrounded by leaders and changemakers fighting for Georgia’s future. Everywhere I go, I find that what unites us is community, connection, and purpose. And of course, I couldn’t do it without my better half, Ariel.

Trump and his allies laid off critical CDC workers here in Georgia in their latest round of reckless mass firings. Our public health depends on these professionals, and when they’re forced out, lives are on the line. www.atlantanewsfirst.com/2025/10/11/c...

Georgia’s doctor-to-patient ratio is 23% worse than the national average, and we’re falling further behind. As governor, I’ll expand training, open new residencies, and invest in rural care so every Georgian can get the care they need. www.georgiapolicy.org/news/friday-...

I read a recent column saying Democrats should “ditch identity politics.” Let’s be clear — listening to people’s lived experiences isn’t identity politics. It’s good politics.

Progress starts with our children. I had a blast visiting the Kids ‘R’ Kids Learning Academy for Georgia Pre-K Week. As a former educator and dad to two little ones of my own, I know how critical early childhood education is to our kids' success.

I’m honored to have Shanette’s trust. As governor, I’ll fight to overturn Georgia’s abortion ban and protect every woman’s right to safe, accessible care.

Brian Kemp and Georgia Republicans are yet again failing GA families. They’re lighting taxpayer dollars on fire to enrich their corporate consultants while rural hospitals shutter. As governor, I’ll push for real health care expansion. www.wabe.org/report-georg...

Amber Nicole Thurman was a devoted mother, a medical assistant who dreamed of becoming a nurse, and the light of her mother's life. Her death was entirely preventable, and she would be here with us today if not for doctors delaying her care and Georgia’s abortion ban.

Furloughed federal workers are already struggling without a paycheck because Trump and Republicans shut down the government — and now Trump’s refusing to guarantee backpay. It’s a cruel slap in the face to hardworking public servants. www.ajc.com/news/2025/10...

This is a win for DeKalb County students. Strong minds start with healthy students, and children learn best when they have time to move and play throughout the day. www.cbsnews.com/atlanta/news...

Small businesses power Georgia, but too many can’t get off the ground because they can’t access capital. I’ll change that. As governor, I’ll invest in local entrepreneurs with low-interest loans that create jobs, grow communities, and keep Georgia’s economy strong.

Trump and Republicans shut down the government because they refuse to protect Georgians’ healthcare. I spoke with furloughed and RIF’ed CDC workers from AFGE local 2883 to hear how the shutdown is threatening their livelihoods and our public health. www.ajc.com/news/2025/10...
