Stacey Abrams: Expand reproductive freedom to under-served areas

She will support reproductive freedom and access to treatment for women, regardless of ability to pay. Also, across our state, more than half of our counties lack access to OB/GYNs or pediatricians. Stacey will leverage state and federal programs to incentivize more doctors and medical personnel to locate in under-served areas, and she will work with practitioners to reduce our maternal and infant mortality rates and increase access to care.

Casey Cagle: Every child is a gift from God; 100% pro-life

No task of government is more important than protecting innocent life. From his first election through the present, Casey Cagle has never wavered in his dedication to stopping threats against the most vulnerable members of our society.

Lt. Governor Cagle is 100% pro-life, and deeply believes that every child is a gift from God who deserves the full protection of our laws, from conception forward. He has acted on this commitment by helping pass numerous pieces of pro-life legislation.

Casey Cagle also believes we must protect all members of our society with strong law enforcement, tough criminal laws and a specific focus on preventing our senior citizens from being victims of fraud.
