Democrat Fails, Hypocrisy, and Lies

Ossoff and Lance Bottoms Don't Share Georgia Values

Rapid Response

Georgia Democrat Senator Jon Ossoff and failed Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms are locking arms and doubling down on their far-Left, defund the police, pro-criminal agenda this election cycle.




Ossoff and Lance Bottoms’ radical records are deeply out-of-touch with Georgia voters:


  • Opposes deporting criminal illegal aliens
  • Smears our brave law enforcement officers
  • Refuses to champion the Laken Riley Act and has never posted about his constituent Laken’s murder by a criminal illegal alien
  • Voted to let men in girls’ sports and allow men in women’s bathrooms
  • Called the largest tax cuts in American history “a disaster for Georgia”
  • Compared President Trump and his administration to white supremacists and Nazis
  • Requires photo ID to meet him but voted against commonsense photo ID requirements to vote
  • Voted to shut down the government 15 times in 2025
  • Defunded the police as mayor of Atlanta, demoralizing law enforcement and creating a crime crisis, with homicides surging 58% and the city’s “violence remaining unrelenting”
  • Ended the City of Atlanta’s cooperation with ICE, enacted sanctuary city policies, and removed all detainees from the city jail
  • Shuttered small businesses and pushed mask mandates and lockdowns during the pandemic
  • Said “obstructing immigration enforcement” is part of Democrats' plans to “reimagine” law enforcement
  • Believes the "MAGA Republican agenda" is an effort to "essentially destroy the United States of America”
  • Lance Bottoms worked in Biden’s administration, carrying water for his open border crisis, hatred of Republicans, and cognitive decline and was a senior adviser on Kamala Harris’ failed campaign
  • Lied about Georgia’s election law, despite the fact that Georgia saw increased voter turnout after the law took effect
  • Did nothing as Major League Baseball moved the 2021 All-Star Game out of Georgia, a move Joe Biden “strongly” supported which cost the state $100 million

Ossoff and Lance Bottoms are nothing more than an extension of the failed Biden-Harris agenda, and in November, voters will reject them and their woke, out-of-touch records.
