People know the Senate can do more to save lives

Teresa Tomlinson for Senate           Friend, You've heard it countless times. “Democrats aren’t supposed to talk about gun laws in a state like Georgia.” We’re a state that elected a governor in 2018 after he ran a TV ad of himself loading a shotgun that …

The Supreme Court and the 150 federal judges confirmed by Trump

Teresa Tomlinson for Senate         Friend, David Perdue just wants you to leave him alone. Just before Republicans forced Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to a Senate vote, Perdue was caught on camera hiding from women in an airport bathroom to avoid answerin…

I support Teresa Tomlinson for U.S. Senate

Teresa Tomlinson for Senate             Friend, Georgia is the most important state on the map in 2020. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Y’all, nowhere else are the stakes this high. Democrats can win 16 electoral votes for the presidency, defend one U…

We’re endorsing Teresa for the U.S. Senate

Teresa Tomlinson for Senate             Friend, I know how tough it is breaking down barriers. Marching with Dr. King throughout the South in the 1960s, we encountered bitter opposition in our struggle for equality. But we prevailed, and passed the Civil Ri…

Perdue said Trump’s tax scam would “pay for itself.” It’s not.

Teresa Tomlinson for Senate         Friend, There have been 289 mass shootings in the United States in the first 245 days of 2019. If David Perdue and Mitch McConnell continue to go along with the NRA’s wishes and block any action, we can expect more than…

Just short

The stakes in Georgia are twice as high now

David Perdue is scared - and he should be

An extreme shift on the Supreme Court

A plan for legalization that doesn’t leave anyone behind
