Taxes & budget: “Elected in February of 2023, Holt quickly got to work on keeping his word and delivering for the people of District 119. Holt may have entered the 2023 Legislative Session mid-way through, he didn’t let it slow him down. He quickly joined Republican colleagues in passing legislation to return taxpayer dollars back to taxpayers, support law enforcement, hold radical District Attorneys accountable, and protect our Georgia values.”

Economy, jobs & cost of living: “I'm a Barrow County mom of two daughters in our public school system, and like so many families in our district, I know firsthand the challenges we're facing. I chose to raise my family in Barrow County for the schools, the affordable cost-of-living, and, most importantly, the community. But our community is facing increasing headwinds.”
(Campaign website) Economy, jobs & cost of living: “The status quo no longer works for the majority of hard-working families in our area. The cost of living continues to rise at unsustainable rates, housing and healthcare have become increasingly unaffordable, and our schools remain underfunded and unsafe. No parent should have to worry about putting food on the table every night or the safety and well-being of their kids on any given school day.”
(Campaign website) Economy, jobs & cost of living: “House District 119 needs a committed advocate â one who is not afraid of starting tough conversations in the name of solving these problems. And I am just that â a problem solver with over 20 years of experience serving the public. I am committed to ensuring that Barrow and Jackson Counties are affordable, safe, and growing on our terms so families can continue to live, work, and thrive here. I will fight for the well-being of each and every one of you â across party, generational, ability, and income lines.”
