“As your next State Representative I will put People before Government and People before Corporations.” Here in Cherokee County we have recently seen our local government rezone properties against the will of the people just to satisfy a corporations desires. When those people showed up at the City Council Meeting they discovered that the corporation had filled the chamber with employees and prevented them from voicing their opposition. We’ve seen our governments sacrifice the needs and desires of the people because it was in the best interest of the local government.

Foreclosures surge in Cherokee County

admin — Wed, 18 Aug 2010 06:15:52 +0000

In an August 13th article of the Cherokee Tribune, Ashley Fuller reports that There are 544 foreclosures up for bid on the courthouse steps on Sept. 7 That brings the number of foreclosures to 3,505 for the first eight months of the year. People are losing their homes faster then ever before and our current elected officials are doing nothing to stop or slow the process.

Georgia must modernization of our foreclosure laws and slow process of taking someones home. Not just to help those who are in trouble and struggling during this great recession, but to help all of us. As more and more homes are foreclosed on, all our home values are driven down in value. Homes are already at levels last seen 10 years ago, how low do they have to go before our representative will act?

As your next State Representative, I will work with all members of the house to slow this process down so people can keep their homes.

Going door to door this Sunday August 15.

Atlanta, GA (June 1, 2010) – Bill Brown won an important endorsement

No one needs to tell America’s families that unemployment and underemployment are at crisis levels. We need jobs—and we need them now. That is the message of the Georgia AFL-CIO, the organization that endorsed candidate Bill Brown for the Georgia State House on May 26, 2010.

“The Georgia AFL-CIO, is committed to creating jobs for the men and women of Georgia and it is a tremendous honor to receive their endorsement,” said Brown.

Bill meets with Business Leaders, Judges and School Board members

I am a commuter and I am committed to STOPPING the tolls on I-575

admin — Sun, 09 May 2010 05:17:51 +0000

I support an HOV lane on I-575 connecting us to the existing HOV on i75, but not the tolls. We are already taxed for roads, have a new 1% sales tax option coming (some day) and now our state wants more money from us. It’s time to say NO.

I am a Canton commuter who travels to and from Atlanta everyday for work. I pay my property tax, sales tax, income tax and I don’t want to pay anymore taxes or fees. The DOT needs to add the two reversible lanes as planned, but as HOV lanes. If our State Legislature would invest in our roads and transportation systems, we could reduce the emissions that prevent us from Federal Dollars for road work.

Your Taxes and mine have gone up so that taxes for these corporations and others can go down.

admin — Sat, 08 May 2010 14:24:33 +0000

These aren’t distressed companies struggling to survive, these are the Fortune 500 companies that are enjoying increased revenues and the largest quarterly profits they’ve seen in years. YET, our legislators have cut funding to our schools, roads, etc… raised our TAXES/FEEs while offering Fortune 500 Companies huge tax breaks.

Rank	Company	Revenues ($ millions)	Profits ($ millions)

1	Wal-Mart Stores	408,214.0	14,335.0
2	Exxon Mobil	284,650.0	19,280.0
3	Chevron	163,527.0	10,483.0
4	General Electric	156,779.0	11,025.0
5	Bank of America Corp.	150,450.0	6,276.0
6	ConocoPhillips	139,515.0	4,858.0
7	AT&T	123,018.0	12,535.0
8	Ford Motor	118,308.0	2,717.0
9	J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.	115,632.0	11,728.0

This has to stop! If Walmart, Bank of America, Ford, etc… want my money they need to earn it. They need to compete for it! Our State Representative and my opponent should be ashamed of himself

Next time you see him, ask him, “Why would he take our money and give it to Americas Largest Corporations”?
