Use our hashtag and tell us why you’re voting for JD Jordan for State Senate District 56 to better represent East Cobb, Roswell, and Woodstock.
Nell Goza, East Cobb.
I could not endorse JD Jordan more if I tried. He has my full support and here is why:
He is a father … If he’s willing to run for office for his kids, imagine how he will show up for you as a constituent!
He believes in a better Georgia for ALL Georgians, not just a select few. As a mother, I know JD is someone who will stand up for my children’s safety in schools and in the world. I know that he will fight for my rights as a woman and the rights of every person in our beautiful state.
Ashley Glass, Roswell.
I will be voting for JD Jordan!
I’m a step mother to a trans child. I will always protect her and fight for her rights!
Wouldn’t you fight for your child?
Albers will make sure she has no rights.
VOTE as if YOUR child’s rights are at stake!!!
Patrick Thompson, Woodstock.
As voters, teachers, public safety members, and community leaders, my family just prefers someone like JD Jordan who listens to constituents and seeks solutions that work for everyone, not his Party and personal attitudes.
Jennifer Phillippi, Roswell.
My daughter recently told me that a school shooting is her biggest fear. At school she evaluates how safe she is by how close she is to the school entrance.
JD Jordan will support common sense gun laws to help keep our children safe. I support JD because he cares more about our kids than an A+ rating from the NRA.
Betsy Matteis, Woodstock.
JD Jordan has my vote because I know he'll make healthcare a priority.
As a disabled woman, access to affordable healthcare is essential. He also trusts women to make their own healthcare decisions. I believe that JD will listen to his constituents and will fight for us.
Gemini Kaushik, Duluth.
JD Jordan is working to legitimately protect Georgia, his family, and reproductive rights.
He knows that gun-safety laws reduce school shootings. That thought seems obvious, but John Albers has vetoed every gun safety bill that comes his way. 48 school shootings since Albers became chair of the Public Safety Committee is horridly unacceptable!
I believe in JD Jordan and his ability to improve district 56 and Georgia in general. JD is good for business, safety, and education.
Mark Peterson, Alpharetta.
I served in the US Navy for 26 years, upholding the traditions and core values of Honor, Courage, and Commitment.
JD Jordan embodies the values I hold dear for my family and for Georgia. His commitment to these principles is unwavering.
Liz Goldsmith, Roswell.
I support JD Jordan for Senate because he values our families and will prioritize legislation that helps us thrive. As an educator, I know that JD Jordan will work to fully fund public schools and provide world class education to our students.
Lyndsey & Chris Coates, Roswell
We voted for JD Jordan because he believes that we should make healthcare decisions for me and our daughter. Albers would rather see me dead or in jail for my two late-term losses that required a D&C.
Judy & Chris Skaer, East Cobb.
We proudly endorse JD Jordan for his unwavering support of LGBTQ rights and women's healthcare choices.
Unlike the incumbent Senator Albers, who opposes these crucial issues, JD Jordan stands for the values that impact our family and every family in Georgia. It's time for new leadership that champions individual and family rights.
Stephanie Bolton, Woodstock.
At 42, I battled breast cancer.
Knowing that a fellow cancer survivor like JD Jordan will fight in the GA Senate to safeguard the ACA, expand Medicaid, and defend pre-existing condition coverage gives me hope.
Marineli Dal Cerro, Roswell.
There have been 48 school shootings since Senator Albers became chair of the Public Safety committee. It's time we elect a leader who will put people over guns.
This district can be flipped. Vote for JD Jordan.
Daryl O’Hare, Roswell.
Unlike every other representative in my district … [John Albers] has treated me with disdain and most egregiously—silence—especially on issues that directly affected my family and our community because of the legislation he supported.
I'm supporting JD Jordan because he actively engages with people to hear what's on their hearts and minds as constituents, even if we disagree.
Jay Abraham, Roswell.
I'm voting for JD Jordan because I want to ensure I have the freedom and the right to pursue my ambitions in neuroscience here in Georgia, no matter what happens in my life.
Emily Carter, Roswell.
I have two daughters in public schools. I can’t stomach listening to another republican legislator say we need to ‘fortify our schools and arm teachers’ in the name of safety and offering thoughts and prayers.
I was despondent, that I had to live in a district with a state senator who continues to prioritize the gun lobbyist over our children. Luckily this legislative assistant was incredibly helpful and directed me to learn more about JD Jordan.
I will not let them live in a state with a 6-week abortion ban. It’s cruel. It’s uncalled for. It’s killing women.
JD trusts women.
John Albers just wants to control women.
Noël Heatherland, Roswell.
[As] an activist for human rights such as bodily autonomy and safety in our schools, I am personally endorsing JD Jordan for the 56 because of who he is as a person and our shared values.
JD has a solid understanding of what it’s like to work hard and still struggle and he also has a commitment to listen to the folx he represents. Having a Senator with capacity to listen and have compassion for my and others’ unique experiences is very important to me.
I have witnessed Albers quickly cutting off or speaking down to parents who live in his district, crying to him about what their transgender and gay children would experience under his legislation. But he doesn’t care to understand or help. JD does.
John Albers, Roswell.
[JD Jordan] prioritizes their children, family, & home above politics.
