Our government Should Work as hard as You Do

I’m Lindsay DeFranco, a mom, advocate, and proud Georgian. I’m running for State House District 47 because I believe the system should work for the people who fund it. When we invest early in healthcare, safety, and strong communities, we save money and create better outcomes for everyone. I’m running to bring practical solutions, transparency, and accountability back to the system.

What we’re about

  • Healthcare should not be a financial gamble. I will fight for transparency in medical pricing, Medicaid expansion, and coverage that catches problems early before they become expensive emergencies. When healthcare works on the front end, families stay healthier and costs go down for everyone.

  • Everyone deserves to feel safe in their community. I support strong accountability, but I also believe prevention is the smartest way to reduce crime. Expanding access to mental health care, stable housing, and economic opportunity helps address the root causes of crime and creates safer neighborhoods for everyone.

  • If we pay taxes, we should see results. I believe our public systems should deliver real value to the people who fund them. That means investing wisely in infrastructure, healthcare, and schools so families are not forced to pay twice for services that should already work.

  • The people of Georgia deserve a government that works for them. I will push for full transparency in how taxpayer dollars are spent and demand measurable results from public programs. If something is not working, it should be fixed or replaced so taxpayers are not paying for failure.

  • Strong communities start with smart investment. When we support education, healthcare, and economic stability early, we avoid far greater costs later in emergency care, incarceration, and crisis intervention. Investing early is not just compassionate policy. It is the most fiscally responsible choice.
