OTHER INFORMATION
Candidate's 2022 iVoterGuide profile as a candidate for GA Attorney General.
Candidate's 2020 iVoterGuide profile as a candidate for reelection to GA State Senate, Dist. 6. She served in the state legislature from 2017-2023.
In 2018, one of the important issues listed for her campaign was to “fight to fully fund our public schools, create universal pre-K, and expand deductions for 529 college savings accounts to make college more affordable for families.”
According to Georgia Win List (2018), Jordan “supports universal background checks for all firearm purchases in Georgia,” “opposes Campus Carry,” and “will work to repeal this problematic law so that students, professors, and visitors can feel safe on college campuses.”
Jordan stated her support for “protecting and advancing equal rights for our LGBTQ+ community.” (2022)
In 2016, Jordan spoke about her concerns about the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) that “passed in the state legislature but was vetoed by then Governor Deal” and she stated that “I’m really, really concerned about RFRA this year. It’s kind of like their last stand.”
Jordan gave a speech in 2020 regarding HB481, which is a bill regarding a pro-life, she stated that “I have never, ever strayed from the basic principle that each woman—each woman—must be able to make her own decisions in consultation with her God and her family. It is not for the government or the men of this chamber to insert itself into the most personal, private, and wrenching decisions that [women] make every single day.”
House Bill 481, called the "Living Infants Fairness and Equality (LIFE) Act," declares that unborn children are considered legal persons, restricts most abortions after a detectable heartbeat (around six weeks), requires doctors to inform women about the gestational age and heartbeat, and allows certain exceptions for medical emergencies, rape, or incest. It also recognizes unborn children as dependents for tax purposes and gives people legal standing to defend the law.
