GEORGIANS
For Strong Families Action
Georgians for Strong Families Action is an interfaith advocacy group of Georgia parents who decided they had seen too much deterioration of the social fabric in the state we love. Our mission is to make our state a better place to live and raise a family, create stronger civic bonds by teaching our children better habits of social development and political discourse, and lead our state forward informed by the traditional values we hold dear.
We are bringing attention to specific policies that will advance our Georgia values by protecting our children, promoting family formation and stability, combating division and hate, and prioritizing the renewal of trust in public institutions.

Our Priorities:
The three policy areas on which Georgians for Strong Families Action is currently focused will improve our civic environment and help families across our state:
1. Protecting Our Children from Big Tech's Overreach
We believe in free market principles, but we must also protect our children from the excesses of unchecked technology. Silicon Valley's artificial intelligence and social media applications are undermining our children's values, academic achievement, and mental well-being. We support market-driven innovation but recognize that sensible guardrails are needed to empower parents and protect our next generation from harmful content and addiction-driven technology.
We can make Georgia the national leader in child welfare through fiscally responsible, family-first policies that emphasize parental empowerment, private adoption, and foster care. By expanding tax credits for adoption and foster care, we're putting more money back in taxpayers' pockets while strengthening families. Our proposals include expanding the successful Fostering Success Tax Credit to cover adoption expenses, extending adoption tax credits to private adoptions, and eliminating burdensome sales taxes on essential family items like baby formula and diapers. These market-based solutions help create forever homes for children without growing government bureaucracy.
2. Strengthening Families Through Smart Tax Policy
3. Restoring Classroom Excellence
The education establishment has allowed phones and social media to disrupt our children's learning and corrupt their values. Following the successful leadership of Marietta City Schools, we support empowering local school districts to implement common-sense cell phone restrictions during school hours. This parent-supported policy has already proven effective at improving academic performance and restoring traditional social development. We advocate for local control while providing schools the tools they need to maintain classroom discipline and focus on academic excellence.
