#Powerofthe7th
“My career path has always been about service. Even though I grew up with limited means, and faced language barriers, and have felt the hand of discrimination, I still feel privileged. I still feel lucky that I live in a country where you can immigrate at 5 years old without knowing the language, work hard, and one day start your own law firm and become a State Representative.”
“And for every person who told me I could not, there has been another who told me I could. Those people helped make me who I am. It has become a guiding value in my life: that as I achieve success, I will lift others up with me.”
Platform
We don’t hold our leaders accountable for the actions they take and the words they say. It is time that we stop using race and ethnicity to scapegoat the innocent and divide the impressionable. We need leadership that brings communities together and puts #peoplefirst

I have been advocating for working class families, healthcare, issues of discrimination, and to provide equity and access to government resources for the last 15 years, I will continue to do when you and I make history and #flipthe7th

I define service an individual in a position of privilege or influence that ensures the doors of opportunity are opened, remain open, and are opened wider, in other words, to democratize access, resources, and knowledge. It is one of the best principles of the American character to open doors to all the next generations and that is the definition of service we should aspire. But it is a principle that is not freely given, but rather, it must be intentionally provided.
— Brenda Lopez Romero
Elected as Georgia’s first Latina state representative, Brenda’s career path has always been about service.

Jason Esteves

“State Representative Brenda Lopez Romero knows the importance of building a pipeline of qualified and viable young people of color in Georgia. I am proud to have worked closely with Brenda to make sure we are training the next young leaders in our state. Now more than ever, we must show Brenda Lopez Romero that a grassroots army is ready to have her back and that we want her to flip Georgia’s 7th Congressional District.”

Billy Mitchell
