Solutions
Medical Freedom
Wendy strongly supports your choice in making personal medical decisions. From the food we put in our bodies to the vaccines we decide to take. No government overreach should override our personal freedom.
Education
Wendy believes in protecting our children by defending parent's rights, let teachers be teachers and allow our schools to be educational environments that thrive. She wants to promote learning and innovation that develop essential skills and open the doors of opportunity.
Safety In Our Communities
Recent tragedies have pivoted public safety concerns to those emanating from the porous Southern border. Kendra supports school safety resources, robust training for the mental health and addiction crises, and a better working partnership between communities and local law enforcement. Most significantly, Kendra supports better pay, benefits, and training for law enforcement officers who protect our neighborhoods and keep our families safe.
Overcoming Bidenomics
Because of inflation, Georgians have to spend a much larger amount of their money on housing, food, gas, and other essentials. As your Representative in the Georgia Assembly, Kendra will work to eliminate the state income tax so that you will have more money in your pockets for these necessities. She will work to protect and encourage small businesses in Georgia because they make our state unique and provide living wages for many Georgian families. Kendra will work to promote the development or relocation of companies to Georgia that manufacture critical essential products like microchips and medicines.
Educational Freedom
An excellent education can prepare students for trade school or college. Parents' and guardians' involvement in their children's education and curriculum is vital to a student's academic success. As your Representative, Kendra will work to protect parents' status as the final, authoritative decision makers for their children's education—in a public school of their choice, a private school, or a home school setting.
Healthcare Accessibility
During the pandemic, unelected bureaucrats and many elected officials eroded our freedoms without scientific basis. Many of the decisions made harmed the lives and livelihoods of Georgians. Kendra will protect your freedoms, including your right to work, attend school, and worship.
Protecting our Freedom
The purpose of government is to PROTECT Americans' freedoms, not to erode or remove them. Kendra will work to protect Georgians' fundamental Constitutional liberties. She denounces antisemitism and other forms of hate.
Energy Management
We should maximize utilizing our abundant, clean energy base-load resources: nuclear, clean coal with high-tech scrubbers, and natural gas. This will keep costs low and make the USA energy-independent. Georgia must improve the security and protection of our energy grid from bad actors and fund research into future energy resources like small modular reactors.
