LOEFFLER OP-ED: JOE BIDEN’S BETRAYAL OF AMERICAN VALUES MUST BE OUR CALL TO ACTION
September 15, 2021
In case you missed it, Greater Georgia Chairwoman Kelly Loeffler penned an op-ed featured on Townhall.com
yesterday discussing how Joe Biden's betrayal of American values, lack of accountability, and sheer incompetence must be our call to action – and how Greater Georgia is fighting back. Read the full text of Kelly's op-ed below:
President Reagan once said that “The world must see an America that is morally strong with a creed and a vision. This is what has led us to dare and achieve. For us, values count.”
If America’s exceptionalism under President Biden is measured by this standard, Joe Biden is failing our country. Biden promised that America would “build back better,” but his disastrous foreign policy, out-of-control spending, and unconstitutional government overreach point to decline.
With his haphazard exit from Afghanistan, Joe Biden stranded American citizens and Afghan allies and has made the Taliban the world’s largest weapons dealer. Now, Biden entrusts the protection of these innocent lives to the same Taliban terrorists who harbored Al-Qaeda, reducing two decades of American sacrifice to an epic disaster that demands investigation and accountability.
At home, Biden promised unity and a competence that experience is meant to bring, but he divides our country and grossly mishandles his duties – while shamelessly blaming anyone but himself. Imagine being the President of the United States and acting powerless and beholden – but now we don’t have to imagine it. Yet, with control of the House and Senate, Biden and the Democrats have no one to blame but themselves.
Open-borders Biden has allowed thousands of COVID-positive illegal immigrants, many victims of trafficking, to flood our frontier while placing exclusive blame on conservatives for the recent coronavirus surge. He’s managed to politicize our health response to the pandemic in a way only previously imagined in novels.
Biden has blamed congressional Republicans for failing to support his socialist government takeover of the economy, which forces trillions of dollars in wasteful spending for “infrastructure” down the throats of working-class Americans, saddling generations with debt and lost opportunity.
He even blamed his failure to advance the federal takeover of elections on Republicans fighting to restore faith in elections, launching a failed misinformation campaign with Stacey Abrams that cost Georgians a $100-million opportunity.
While Biden promised unity, we now live in the most divisive political environments in our lifetime. Thanks to his relentless pursuit to placate the woke mob and keep up with the latest demands of a far-left that despises America. Biden said he would be the most progressive president in American history – likely a true statement, but to what end? His extreme agenda has little to do with the country that he swore to serve and protect and everything to do with politics and retribution.
Accountability, honesty and integrity are foreign phrases for Biden. This behavior comes as no surprise from a career politician who has spent five decades in Washington, using his power and influence to enrich himself and his family from his comfortable perch. As president, Biden dismisses serious inquiries into his policies – turns his back, walks away, and ignores them altogether. Meanwhile, the media runs interference for Biden and labels serious questions about the president’s fitness to serve as “conspiracies.”
Biden’s actions have proven that he is more beholden to special interests, blue-state billionaires, and coastal elites rather than hard working Americans in need. Instead of providing access and opportunity to success for all, Biden shamelessly promotes cradle-to-grave government dependency and villainizes those who work hard and make an honest living.
We cannot stand by as Joe Biden and Washington radicals dismantle the American Dream. Now is the time to get vocal, get active, and get involved – which is exactly what we are doing at Greater Georgia, a conservative voter registration and mobilization organization in the biggest battleground state in the country. We are pushing back on the liberals’ far-left agenda and advocating for the pro-freedom, pro-America values that uplift all communities. These are the values that unite our country and make us strong, and these are the values we must always fight to defend because, as President Reagan said, “values count.”

GREATER GEORGIA LAUNCHES STATEWIDE VOTER REGISTRATION PUSH IN ADVANCE OF 2026 MIDTERMS
BUSINESS LEADERS JOIN LABOR COMMISSIONER BARBARA RIVERA HOLMES AND GREATER GEORGIA TO TACKLE WORKFORCE READINESS
ATLANTA, GA— Greater Georgia today released a statement in support of Georgia’s ongoing voter roll cleanup, calling the move a necessary and long overdue step to protect election integrity and restore confidence in the state’s electoral process. The Secretary of State’s office last week began the process of removing more than 500,000 outdated voter registrations, including those who have moved, passed away, or not voted in nearly a decade, as part of one of the largest list maintenance efforts in Georgia history. “This voter roll cleanup is not only common sense, it’s long overdue after fear-mongering lawsuits from leftist groups halted the process,” said Terry Fye of Greater Georgia. “Election officials, and especially the Secretary of State’s office, are legally required to keep our rolls accurate and failing to do so undermines trust in our elections and opens the door to potential fraud.” Georgia law requires regular voter roll maintenance to ensure only eligible voters remain on the rolls. The current process includes multiple attempts to contact inactive voters before any cancellation is finalized, offering ample time to update their information and maintain active status. Since its founding, Greater Georgia has worked to strengthen trust in elections by advocating for secure, transparent, and accountable voting practices. The organization has registered more than 65,000 new voters, expanded civic engagement in every corner of the state, and continues to push for meaningful reforms that protect the vote of every legal Georgian. ### Greater Georgia, founded by former U.S. Senator Kelly Loeffler in 2021, is working to register, engage, educate, and mobilize voters in communities across the Peach State. Our year-round work is focused on growing our movement by registering voters who may not be captured by Georgia’s “Motor Voter” program, mobilizing diverse and underrepresented communities, promoting issue advocacy, and fighting to restore trust and integrity in our elections.

This tour will empower voters and provide them with the resources they need to make informed decisions next November.” For additional information about Greater Georgia and to receive updates about the education tour, please visit our website, https://www.greatergeorgia.com/.

ATLANTA – Today, Greater Georgia announced that its 2024 pre-election voter registration push registered over 7,000 new conservative voters and re-engaged over 4,000 inactive conservative voters. Inactive voters are those who had not participated in an election in the last five years - in this case, since at least 2018. "Greater Georgia has become the leading conservative voter registration group in our state - working year-round to expand the tent, rather than taking it down after every election," said Greater Georgia Chairwoman Kelly Loeffler. "Since 2021, we have registered more than 55,000 new voters, who just became part of the landslide that elected President Trump. We've proved our thesis that we can keep Georgia red as long as we work year-round, every year, to grow the conservative movement. Today, as we prepare for the next election cycle starting with municipal elections in 2025, we can confidently say that the movement has never been stronger or more energized." Greater Georgia is the state's leading conservative voter registration organization. Since it was founded in 2021, the group has registered and re-engaged more than 55,000 voters. It has also worked to build diverse coalitions and advocate for election integrity. In 2024, the group invested in multiple six-figure campaigns, including an 8-week voter registration campaign that ran from August to October, featuring digital ads, text messages, in-person voter registration drives, and over 115,000 phone calls to unregistered voters. ### Media Contact: press@greatergeorgia.com
