Campaign websiteJones' campaign website stated the following:Fighting for the Middle ClassThe reason I am running is to restore the American middle class. We are in a new era of politics and the 13th district needs someone willing to listen to voters and work on resolutions rather than play politics. I have a track record of getting things done with anyone willing to craft and advance solutions while in the Georgia State Senate. To succeed Georgians need a Congressman who is prepared and able fight.Environmental JusticeI am a steadfast advocate for environmental justice, working in partnership with statewide organizations and frontline communities to address environmental disparities across Georgia. I am committed to holding polluters accountable, improving air and water quality, and ensuring that every resident—regardless of ZIP code—has access to a clean, safe environment. I have been on the front lines pushing for policies that clean up our communities, reduce environmental hazards, and promote sustainability, climate resilience, and equitable resource distribution.Civil Rights & Social JusticeI have proudly led the charge to protect voting rights and combat gerrymandering and voter suppression that targets communities of color. As a business owner, I advocate for equal pay and strong workplace protections for women and minority workers. In the Georgia Senate, I supported affordable housing initiatives to combat rising costs and prevent displacement in fast-growing areas of Georgia, including parts of the 13th Congressional District.Healthcare Access & AffordabilityWe must expand Medicaid in Georgia to cover more uninsured residents and improve healthcare access in underserved communities. I will fight to increase funding for hospitals and medical facilities across the 13th District to ensure quality care is within reach. I also support efforts to lower prescription drug costs and ensure our seniors have access to affordable, high-quality healthcare.Education & Youth EmpowermentI will advocate for increased federal funding for public schools to improve teacher salaries, enhance school resources, and boost student outcomes. As a State Senator, I led efforts to modernize the HOPE Scholarship. I support tuition-free community college and vocational training programs to equip students for high-demand careers. For working families and our youth, I will push to expand wraparound services, after-school programs, mentorship initiatives, and youth job opportunities to reduce crime and create pathways to success.Economic Development & Job CreationAs a small business owner, I will always champion small businesses and entrepreneurs by expanding access to federal grants and low-interest loans—especially for minority- and women-owned enterprises. We must enhance workforce training programs at our local colleges and universities to prepare residents for high-paying careers in Georgia’s 13th Congressional District. Additionally, I will work to attract new industries and investments to our region, with a focus on advanced manufacturing, logistics, and green energy jobs.Criminal Justice Reform & Public SafetyAs a Georgia State Senator, I consistently supported police accountability measures and community policing to build trust between law enforcement and the public. I believe in rehabilitation programs and alternatives to incarceration—especially for first-time and juvenile offenders. In Congress, I will advocate for increased federal funding for our District Attorney and Solicitor General offices to expand violence prevention programs and improve public safety in the 13th District.Transportation & InfrastructureDuring my time in the Georgia State Senate, I served as the ranking Democrat on the Interstate Cooperation Committee. As your congressman, I will fight for federal funding to improve critical roadways like I-75, I-285, and I-20, reducing traffic congestion across the district. Residents deserve expanded public transit options, including MARTA extensions, to better connect communities to jobs and economic opportunities. I am also a strong proponent of upgrading our state’s aging infrastructure—particularly in underserved neighborhoods—to ensure safer roads, bridges, and water systems.— Emanuel Jones' campaign website (April 14, 2026)Note: This text is quoted verbatim from the original source.
