Georgia's first black and first female governor was looking to become the state's lawmaker with little profile outside Georgia. Four years later, she is entering the contest as a national political titan widely credited for helping swing Georgia to the Democratic column in the presidential election for the first time since 1992 and for shifting control of the Senate to Democrats after two runoff victories. After signing her papers, she told reporters that the issues she is focusing on have not changed. She said that she ran for governor to ensure that we expand Medicaid, that we fully and permanently fund education, and that we build economic development plans that work for every Georgian.

Kemp is approaching the conversation on Medicaid should not be sustainable and it should be rejected by every Georgia who believes in the people of Georgia.
