About Aaron

About

SANDY SPRINGS, GA– Today, Aaron Baker, a Jewish parent, digital organizer, and government transparency advocate, has announced her candidacy for Georgia State House District 51, running to represent Sandy Springs and Roswell.&nbsp; As a long-term Sandy Spring resident, Aaron has worked to make Georgia politics more accessible by designing powerful tools that simplify complex legislation and expose the influence of money in politics. Now she is running as a Jewish, openly trans, democratic-socialist candidate to actively redefine what it means to be a sitting state legislator in Georgia.&nbsp; If elected, Aaron would become the first openly trans legislator in the Deep South. She has a long track record of building opportunities for the community to become more engaged with Georgia’s political system, including building two websites - <a href="https://gafasttrack.com/">GA FastTrack,</a> a website that explains legislation in the General Assembly; and <a href="https://www.gafastmoney.com/">GA FastMoney</a>, a website that analyzes the campaign finance disclosures of General Assembly members. “After years of our Georgia State legislature ignoring the real affordability crises people are dealing with, they have chosen to pass anti-immigrant, anti-DEI, and anti-trans legislation to scapegoat people like me. I am running to fight back and make history as the first openly trans person elected to a Georgia state office. We need people in the Gold Dome who will fight to uphold our civil rights. We need a seat at the table because if you don’t, then you’re on the menu,” Aaron explained in her campaign announcement, “But the truth is that, right now, none of us has a seat at the table. Our state is run by corporations and corporate interests. Politicians answer to their wealthy donors, not to their constituents. I am fighting for everyday Georgians. That’s why I believe every Georgian deserves safe, affordable housing, fully funded public schools, and a government that answers to the people.” To Aaron and many others, corporations and special interests wield too much influence in Georgia politics, often at the expense of everyday people. Aaron is running to change that. She’s building a people-centered, grassroots campaign that will fight for Medicaid expansion, fully funded public education (including universal pre-K), expanded MARTA services, and affordable housing.&nbsp;&nbsp; In her campaign message, Aaron defines herself as a next-generation leader with the vision, tools, and voice to meet this moment and build a more just and transparent government, for ALL Georgians.

Aaron Baker Announces Campaign For State House District 51

Immigrant families in Georgia face the constant threat of detention and deportation due to Georgia's participation in federal immigration programs and local enforcement practices that target communities of color. Family separation has devastating emotional, educational, and economic consequences. Children may lose caregivers, parents may lose income, and communities lose stability. <h3>Aaron will work to end local participation in federal deportation programs, prohibit racial and religious profiling, and guarantee due process protections, legal representation, and language access for all residents. </h3>Keeping families together is not only a moral imperative—it strengthens the social and economic fabric of Georgia communities. <h4>The Problem:</h4><ul><li>Family separation: Thousands of children are impacted annually when caregivers are detained or deported.</li><li>Racial and religious profiling: Immigrant communities, particularly Latinx and Muslim populations, are disproportionately targeted by local law enforcement inquiries.</li><li>Limited legal support: Many residents face deportation without access to attorneys or language-appropriate resources.</li><li>bDeportation or detention of caregivers creates immediate financial crises for families. </li></ul><h4>The Solution:</h4><ul><li>End participation of local law enforcement with the federal ICE programs: Stop local law enforcement from working with ICE detainers.</li><li>Prohibit profiling: Legislate clear limits on when immigration status can be inquired about.</li><li>Guarantee legal representation: Fund state-supported legal services for immigrant families.</li><li>Ensure language access: Provide translation and interpretation services in courts and public offices.</li><li>Support community integration programs: Fund programs that help immigrant families remain connected, safe, and economically stable.</li></ul>

Everyone in Georgia deserves to live without fear that a traffic stop or trip to work will tear their family apart. Aaron will fight to end local participation in federal deportation programs that target immigrant communities, prohibit racial and religious profiling, and require clear limits on when local law enforcement can inquire about immigration status. She will champion due-process protections, access to legal representation, and language-access standards so immigrant families are not unlawfully detained, exploited, or deported in violation of their rights.

Keeping Families Together

Every Georgian deserves the right to make private medical decisions free from political interference. Currently, state law bans most abortions after six weeks, long before many people know they are pregnant, and limits access to gender-affirming care. These restrictions disproportionately impact women, LGBTQ+ individuals, and rural or low-income residents. Georgia has one of the highest maternal mortality rates in the country, particularly among Black women, and insufficient access to reproductive and gender-affirming healthcare leaves residents vulnerable. Protecting bodily autonomy is essential for personal dignity, health, and economic stability.&nbsp; <h4>Aaron will work to repeal restrictive laws, expand healthcare access, and protect patients and providers from criminalization.</h4><h5> </h5><h3>The Problem:</h3><ul><li>High maternal mortality: Georgia’s maternal mortality rate is 26.2 per 100,000, higher than the national average, with disparities affecting Black women most.</li><li>Insufficient preventive care: Rural and low-income areas lack clinics providing contraception and sexual health services.</li><li>Restricted abortion access: Over 25% of women of reproductive age live in counties without abortion providers.</li><li>Limited gender-affirming care: Access to hormone therapy or surgical care is severely limited, especially for youth and rural residents. </li></ul><h3>The Solution:</h3><ul><li>Repeal restrictive abortion laws: Restore full reproductive rights in Georgia.</li><li>Fund clinics and telehealth: Support reproductive and gender-affirming services statewide.</li><li>Protect medical privacy: Strengthen laws preventing government interference in healthcare decisions.</li><li>Expand school-based health services: Provide contraception, counseling, and sexual health education.</li><li>Incentivize providers to serve underserved areas: Offer grants and loan repayment programs.</li></ul>

Every Georgian deserves the right to make private medical decisions free from political interference. Georgia’s constitution protects every person’s right to privacy and liberty. These rights must include control over one’s own body. Yet state law currently bans most abortions after about six weeks, long before many people know they are pregnant – and the ban has deadly consequences. Aaron will work to repeal Georgia’s abortion ban, restore full reproductive freedom, and protect providers from criminalization. Furthermore, Aaron will defend the rights of patients and medical providers to make informed decisions regarding access to all forms of gender-affirming care.

Guarantee Bodily Autonomy

Georgia has seen an unprecedented boom in tech infrastructure, including massive data centers that consume 7 billion gallons of water and 10 trillion watt-hours of electricity annually. While these facilities generate corporate profits, they often raise utility costs for residents, strain local water supplies, and increase environmental risk. Local communities bear the costs while private companies reap the rewards.&nbsp; <h3>Aaron will advocate for the regulated expansion of data centers, ensuring that environmental sustainability, community water and energy access, and economic fairness are prioritized over corporate profit. Technology should serve people, not replace them.</h3><h5> </h5><h4>The Problem:</h4><ul><li>Resource strain: Data centers consume billions of gallons of water, impacting local communities’ water availability.</li><li>Energy costs: Georgia families face higher electricity bills as industrial demand increases.</li><li>Environmental impacts: Large facilities contribute to pollution, energy waste, and strain on local infrastructure.</li><li>Economic inequity: Corporate incentives and tax breaks often benefit companies over the residents who shoulder the cost. </li></ul><h4>The Solution:</h4><ul><li>Regulate new data centers: Require impact assessments on water, energy, and local communities.</li><li>Cap utility increases for residents: Prevent residents from paying for corporate energy demands.</li><li>Environmental sustainability requirements: Mandate renewable energy usage and emissions reduction.</li><li>Equity in economic development: Ensure state incentives benefit communities, not just corporations.</li><li>Transparency and accountability: Require companies to report resource use and environmental impact publicly.</li></ul>

Data centers in Georgia use 7 Billion gallons of water and 10 Trillion watt-hours of electricity a year, and are poised to raise utility costs for working families. But, they don't have to. Our economy should always prioritize people and planet before profit. We need ensure new technologies are strongly regulated, environmentally sustainable, and economically fair for working people.

People Before Data

Accessible public transit is essential for connecting Georgians to jobs, education, and healthcare. Inadequate transit options force many low-income residents to rely on long commutes or multiple vehicles, increasing traffic congestion and environmental pollution. Georgia ranks 48th nationally in per-capita transit funding, and traffic costs commuters over $6 billion annually. Expanding MARTA and regional transit options is critical to economic opportunity, environmental sustainability, and equitable access to mobility. <h3>Aaron will fight to secure funding, expand routes, improve safety, and make transit affordable and reliable for everyone.</h3> <h4>The Problem:&nbsp;</h4><ul><li>Limited transit options: Many communities, especially in Sandy Springs and rural areas, lack access to public transportation.</li><li>High commuting costs: Long commutes increase expenses for workers and reduce quality of life.</li><li>Low investment: Georgia ranks 48th in per-capita transit funding, limiting expansion and maintenance.</li><li>Environmental impact: Increased car use contributes to pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. </li></ul><h4>The Solution:</h4><ul><li>Expand MARTA and regional transit: Add routes and improve service frequency.</li><li>Secure state funding: Prioritize public transit in state budgets for infrastructure, safety, and maintenance.</li><li>Improve accessibility: Ensure buses and trains accommodate seniors, students, and people with disabilities.</li><li>Integrate multimodal options: Build bike lanes, pedestrian-friendly streets, and park-and-ride facilities.</li><li>Equity-focused planning: Focus on connecting low-income and underserved communities to job and school centers.</li></ul>

Accessible public transit means access to opportunity!&nbsp;Increased access to transit has been proven to be an effective tool to reduce traffic and congestion. Aaron is committed to expanding MARTA access across Sandy Springs and the region, ensuring that people can get to work, school, and healthcare without needing a car. She’ll work to secure funding for a safe, reliable, and affordable transportation option to minimize traffic.

Public Transit That Will Get Us There

Thousands of Georgians work full-time yet still cannot pay for housing, healthcare, food, and childcare. Georgia’s minimum wage is $5.15/hour, well below the federal minimum and far from what is needed for a family to survive. Low wages force workers to take multiple jobs, work long hours, or rely on public assistance, while corporations profit from paying employees far less than their labor is worth. Women, Black and brown workers, and immigrants are disproportionately affected. Raising the minimum wage is crucial for equity, economic security, and community stability. Aaron will push for a living wage that allows full-time workers to support their families and live with dignity. <h3>As a state representative, Aaron will fight to raise Georgia’s minimum wage, strengthen worker protections, support collective bargaining, and expand access to workforce development programs to ensure that no worker is left behind.</h3> <h4>The Problem:&nbsp;</h4><ul><li>Stagnant wages: Georgia’s minimum wage has remained $5.15/hour since 2009, while living costs—housing, healthcare, childcare—have surged.</li><li>Pervasive low-income work: About 40% of low-wage workers earn less than a living wage, forcing them to rely on multiple jobs or public assistance.</li><li>Demographic disparities: Women and people of color make up more than 50% of low-wage positions, reinforcing systemic inequities.</li><li>Economic instability: Workers who earn too little are unable to save, invest in education, or support local businesses, undermining community economies. </li></ul><h4>The Solution:</h4><ul><li>Legislate a living minimum wage: Gradually raise it to $20/hour based on cost-of-living data.</li><li>Protect workers’ rights: Strengthen enforcement against wage theft, unpaid overtime, and unfair scheduling.</li><li>Support collective bargaining: Protect workers’ ability to organize and negotiate for fair pay.</li><li>Tie state contracts to fair pay: Require companies receiving state funding to pay a living wage.</li><li>Invest in workforce development: Fund training programs to help workers move into higher-paying, skilled jobs.</li></ul>

Georgia’s minimum wage is still stuck at $5.15 per hour, leaving the federal $7.25 minimum as the only real floor for pay. That wage hasn’t increased since 2009, even as housing, healthcare, and basic costs have surged. Aaron supports raising Georgia’s minimum wage to $20 per hour so that people who work full time can afford their bills, support their families, and live with dignity.

Aaron for Georgia: LAUNCH PARTY

Join us to officially launch my campaign for Georgia State House District 51 here in North Fulton County. Ticket purchases include drink and prize tickets.<a style="color: var(--color-text-accent-primary); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text-accent-primary)" href="https://secure.actblue.com/donate/launchab" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">RSVP Today!</a> We'd love to see you there.

Georgia has one of the highest rates of uninsured residents in the nation, leaving nearly 1.2 million people without health coverage and millions more underinsured. Many Georgians cannot afford basic medical care, preventive services, or prescription medications. Hospitals in rural areas are closing at alarming rates, worsening healthcare deserts, and forcing families to travel long distances for care. Health disparities disproportionately impact Black, Latinx, and low-income communities, making timely care a privilege rather than a right.&nbsp; <h3>Aaron will push to expand healthcare coverage, protect rural hospitals, and ensure healthcare access is equitable, regardless of income, race, or employment status. Quality healthcare is essential for keeping families healthy, workers productive, and communities thriving.</h3> <h4>The Problem:</h4><ul><li>High uninsured rate: Nearly 1.2 million Georgians lack health insurance, ranking Georgia 5th in the nation for uninsured residents.</li><li>Underinsurance and medical debt: Millions more Georgians are underinsured, leading to financial hardship or delaying treatment.</li><li>Healthcare inequities: Black and Latinx communities face higher rates of preventable illness and lower access to care.</li><li>Rural hospital closures: Over 10 hospitals in rural Georgia have closed in the last decade, creating “care deserts.” </li></ul><h4>The Solution:</h4><ul><li>Expand access to healthcare, including covering all eligible low-income Georgians.</li><li>Protect rural hospitals: Increase funding and resources to prevent closures in underserved areas.</li><li>Invest in preventive care: Fund public health initiatives, vaccinations, and wellness programs.</li><li>Reduce medical debt: Support state legislation that caps surprise billing and expands access to affordable healthcare.</li><li>Increase access to mental health services: Ensure insurance coverage and funding for counselors, therapists, and community programs.</li></ul>

Right now, Georgia has the fifth-highest share of residents with no health insurance with nearly 1.2 million people are uninsured. Millions more of Georgians are underinsured, and thousands are burdened by medical debt or denied coverage altogether. Aaron will work to push legislation to expand Medicaid immediately, protect hospitals from closure, and ensure healthcare access isn’t determined by employment, race, or income.

No One Left Uninsured

Education is the foundation of opportunity, yet Georgia’s schools remain underfunded. Per-pupil funding ranks 46th nationally, and teacher pay ranks 49th, leaving classrooms overcrowded and under-resourced. Schools in low-income and rural areas face the greatest deficits, with shortages of counselors, nurses, and enrichment programs. Without full funding, students lack the tools to succeed, and teachers leave the profession, exacerbating inequities.&nbsp; <h3>As a state representative, Aaron will revise the outdated funding formula, fight for universal pre-K, and ensure educators are paid a living wage, creating a system where every child can thrive.</h3> <h4>The Problem:</h4><ul><li>Underfunded schools: Per-pupil funding in Georgia is $11,774, far below the national average of $14,000.</li><li>Teacher pay disparities: Median teacher salary is $60,000, leaving educators underpaid and undervalued.</li><li>Resource gaps: Over 40% of students live in low-income households, lacking access to essential supports such as counselors or school nurses.</li><li>Inequitable outcomes: Funding disparities perpetuate cycles of poverty and limit educational and workforce opportunities. </li></ul><h4>The Solution:</h4><ul><li>Revise funding formula: Update state funding to account for inflation, poverty, and student needs.</li><li>Raise teacher salaries: Ensure living wages and competitive pay to retain educators.</li><li>Fund essential staff: Guarantee counselors, nurses, and support personnel in every school.</li><li>Invest in classrooms and technology: Provide equitable access to books, computers, and broadband.</li><li>Expand pre-K programs: Ensure all children have access to early education.</li></ul>

Every child deserves a fully funded education, regardless of their zip code. Yet right now, Georgia schools are funded based on an outdated formula created nearly 40 years ago. As a State Representative, Aaron is committed to revising the school funding formula to account for inflation, poverty, and the evolving needs of students. She will fight for fully funded public schools, universal pre-K, and living wages for educators.

A Fully Funded Future for Young Georgians

North Fulton is facing a housing crisis affecting thousands of working-class families. Rent has increased dramatically, while the minimum wage has remained stagnant, unable to keep pace with the rising cost of homes. Essential workers, teachers, nurses, and city workers can’t afford to live where they work. Meanwhile, investors and corporate landlords are buying entire neighborhoods. Legislators have ignored this reality, promoting a status quo that Aaron’s district can't be one for working-class families. But no one should feel priced out of a district they love. <h4>As a state representative, Aaron will fight to end Georgia’s ban on rent control, strengthen tenant protections, end corporate tenant gouging, cap Georgia Power rate increases, advocate for a higher minimum wage, and promote state investment in daycare.</h4> <h3>The Problem:</h3><ul><li>Rising rent has constrained rental affordability. Median housing prices in Sandy Springs have nearly doubled over the last nine years, increasing from $270,000 in 2016 to $415,000 in 2025. This has left, on average, 56% of renters housing cost burdened, meaning they spend more than 30% of their annual income on housing costs. This statistic is echoed throughout Georgia, increasing traffic congestion, disrupting students’ lives as they experience “rent hopping,” and decreasing Georgian’s overall quality of life.&nbsp;</li><li>The working class has been priced out of their neighborhoods. Aaron’s district can no longer house the very people responsible for keeping cities running. Essential workers, teachers, nurses, and city workers have been priced out of their neighborhoods. Corporations have bought out the market, purchasing low and middle-income homes only to tear them down and replace them with properties worth millions of dollars. Corporations should never come before people.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li><li>Georgia’s housing crisis is likely to exacerbate without urgent intervention. The housing challenge is expected to persist with no end in sight, as rent increases annually by 4.2% and home prices appreciate by 7.5% each year. Without urgent action, thousands of Georgia residents in Aaron’s district will be forced to move or become unhoused. </li></ul><h3>The Solution:&nbsp;</h3>As a state representative, Aaron will not only hold leading actors accountable but also work to provide relief for everyday expenses that exacerbate the financial burden of housing. When done right, Georgians can expect to see reduced homelessness, lower crime rates, lower child poverty rates, and increased state and municipal revenues.&nbsp; Specifically, Aaron will:&nbsp; <ul><li>End Georgia’s ban on rent control: Georgia state law prohibits the implementation of rent control, allowing landlords to raise rent as they see fit, with minimum prior notice to tenants. Because of a lack of regulation, Georgians are experiencing the sixth-largest rent increase nationwide. Rent control laws stabilize rent and provide housing stability. As a State Representative, Aaron will work to end Georgia’s ban on rent control and adamantly support legislation that enacts rent control at the city and state levels.&nbsp;</li><li>Strengthen tenant protection: Too often, renters in Georgia live with holes in their walls, non-functioning appliances, mold, and rodents, with little recourse against landlords who fail to repair their homes. Strengthening laws that promote housing stability and protect tenants' living conditions is a crucial step in addressing this housing crisis. As a State Representative, Aaron will work to expand the “Safe at Home Act” to further define what “fit for human habitation” means and clarify the remedies available to a tenant for a landlord’s breach.&nbsp;</li><li>Increase the minimum wage: Workers can only pay their rent and mortgages if they make a livable wage. However, Georgia’s minimum wage is currently set at $5.15 per hour, leaving the federal minimum wage of $7.25 as the only real floor for pay. As Georgia’s housing costs surge, every Georgian deserves a livable wage that can at least keep pace with the housing market. Aaron is committed to introducing legislation to increase the minimum wage in Georgia to $25 an hour. See Aaron’s plan on raising the minimum wage in Georgia for more information!</li></ul>
