No Kings over our heads
When thousands of Georgians stood together and declared “No king over our heads,” it wasn’t protest, it was the pure sound of democracy rising.
When thousands of ordinary people come together to say “No king over our heads,” that’s the sound of democracy in action!
At the No King Rally in Suwanee, I stood shoulder to shoulder with friends, neighbors, and children — all of us united for Georgia’s future, powered by the people. We came together not out of fear, but out of hope. Hope that our voices still matter, that our votes still count, and that our democracy still belongs to us.
Across the country, more than seven million people joined together in 2,700 “No King’s Day” events. In Atlanta, over 10,000 marched from the Civic Center to the gold dome of our Capitol. Thousands more filled the streets of Savannah and small towns across Georgia — places that once voted red, now rising for what’s right.
These events remind us just how dangerous it is when one man tries to rule over the Constitution, as if he were above the law, above the people, and above democracy itself. He has no idea that the federal government exists to serve the people, not to profit from them. He has run his administration to enrich himself and his family, not to strengthen our nation, but this movement, our movement, is about turning outrage into action.
Let’s channel that energy straight to the ballot box!
Vote early by October 31st, or on November 4th, for leaders who will fight for us from our city councils to the Democratic Public Service Commission, and let’s prepare for the midterm elections next year, to change the trifecta of a Republican governor and majorities in both the Senate and House chambers in Georgia. We have a real chance to flip House District 99 blue with your votes, and with the voices of swing voters and independents. We got this!
Here in Georgia, we bow to no king. We rise as the people!
— Michelle Kang, the Candidate for Georgia State House District 99
