Lucy McBath

Education Congresswoman McBath has made lowering student debt a priority because it too often holds students and graduates back. She supports fully funding K-12 education and making public universities, vocational schools, and community colleges more affordable. Environment / Energy Climate change is an existential threat to our environment and to the futures of our children. Congresswoman McBath believes the science of climate change is conclusive and indisputable: humans are the principal cause of it and our planet is warming at an extremely alarming rate. Immigration Congresswoman McBath recognizes that it is critical that we extend our open hands to DREAMers. Foreign Policy I also support a common sense two state solution. Israelis and Palestinians alike deserve the right to self-determination. But I am also deeply concerned that this administration does not have a comprehensive plan to move the peace process forward. Government Reform Congresswoman McBath strongly disagrees with the Citizens United decision. Corporate interests have had a corrosive effect on our democracy, and she will support any legislation to increase transparency of our campaign finance system. Infrastructure / Transportation Congresswoman McBath supports funding projects to bring our roads, airports, and transit into the 21st century. Guns She refuses to stop fighting until the threat of gun violence no longer permeates our communities. Healthcare She supports proposals making it easier for more Georgians to get covered and to expand upon the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Civil Rights The fight for equality and justice must continue with protections for our LGBTQ communities. Foreign Policy Israel is the homeland and refuge for millions of Jewish people who have fled anti-Semitism worldwide. I recognize the tremendous friendship that our country and the State of Israel have enjoyed over the past seven decades; our intelligence, military, and diplomatic relationships are essential for American interests abroad.
