This week, I was proud to commemorate the opening of the Akers Mill Ramp project in the Cumberland area. This new access ramp will serve 100,000 daily commuters in the metro Atlanta area. During my first year in Congress, I was proud to help secure $5 million from the U.S. Department of Transportation to complete funding for the project.

On Thursday, I shared my own story of motherhood and the struggles I faced as I started my family. Tragically, Georgia has one of the worst rate of maternal mortality in the nation. My work in Congress to protect our families is very important to me—my bill to support life-saving care for mothers and infants is now law. Click below to watch my remarks.
