humility, and a relentless focus on results for our State.<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"vertical-align: baseline;\"><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">Here are some of the results my team and I have delivered for Georgia in my third year in office:<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"vertical-align: baseline;\"><b><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">I\u2019ve relentlessly worked to upgrade Georgia\u2019s infrastructure<\/span><\/b><b><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\"> through the historic bipartisan infrastructure law,<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">\u00a0delivering resources for an unprecedented expansion of

Southeast.<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"MsoNormal\"><b><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">I\u2019ve championed Georgia\u2019s economic development, <\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">working to implement manufacturing incentives and infrastructure upgrades to cement Georgia\u2019s place as the national leader in advanced energy innovation and manufacturing. <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">According to a recent study, Georgia has received more clean energy manufacturing investment since passage of the <i>Inflation Reduction Act<\/i> than any other state in the nation.<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"vertical-align: baseline;\"><b><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">I\u2019ve focused on supporting Georgia\u2019s servicemembers and military families,<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\"> helping deliver the largest pay raise for servicemembers in decades and vital upgrades to Georgia\u2019s defense installations. I passed into law bills helping Georgia\u2019s young military families afford housing, providing military spouses more job flexibility when transferring to reserve units, and expanding access for military families to mental health care.<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"vertical-align: baseline;\"><b><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">I have continued to honor our commitment to our Nation\u2019s veterans<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">. This past year, I wrote and passed bipartisan legislation to expand support for small businesses that are owned and controlled by service-disabled veterans. I led inquiries into wait times and delays at VA facilities, and I continue to advocate for veterans\u2019 access to mental health care. My team and I have helped thousands of individual Georgia veterans cut through red tape to access the benefits they\u2019ve earned.<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"vertical-align: baseline;\"><b><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">Focused on supporting our state\u2019s farmers, ranchers, and growers<\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">, I\u2019ve traveled across Georgia to meet with agricultural leaders to hear their concerns and champion their work. I spearheaded a successful effort to open the Indian market \u2014 with more than one billion consumers \u2014 to Georgia pecan exports. I introduced legislation to \u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\">improve research and development<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Barlow;\"> for precision agriculture; modernize and improve the U.S. Forest Service\u2019s Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program; and ensure Georgia citrus growers have a seat at the table when guiding key decisions for the industry.<\/span><span

servicemembers and military families.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"website\">In 2023, Senator Ossoff helped deliver the largest pay raise for servicemembers in decades and passed into law several pieces of legislation helping Georgia\u2019s young military families afford housing, <a
