Everton Blair for Congress in GA-13
This is a pivotal moment for Georgia’s 13th District, anc Our Revolution is proud to endorse Everton Blair for Congress in Georgia’s 13th District.
For decades, this district has been represented by the status quo. Now, voters have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to elect a new kind of leader — one rooted in the community and committed to bold, people-first change.
Everton Blair is that leader.
A Lifelong Educator and Community Leader
Born and raised in Gwinnett County, the son of Jamaican immigrants, Everton Blair is a proud product of Georgia public schools. After graduating from Harvard and Stanford, he returned home to teach math in the same district that raised him.
He went on to serve on the Gwinnett County School Board, where he was unanimously elected Board Chair — making history while delivering real results. Under his leadership, the district:
- Raised pay for teachers, bus drivers, and school staff
- Expanded student services and community engagement
- Led a strong, science-based response to COVID-19
- Helped build a more representative and inclusive school board
Everton has always believed that strong public schools are the foundation of strong communities — and his record proves it.
A Bold Progressive Agenda for Working Families
Everton Blair is running on the core priorities of the progressive movement:
“Government should work for the people, not for billionaires and corporations. That means fully-
funded public schools, safe road, quality climate-resilient infrastructure, affordable healthcare and housing,” he said. “That requires electing progressive leaders to Congress who will choose to invest in people over profit. We have a chance to do that right here in GA-13.”
- Medicare for All — because healthcare is a human right
- Good-paying jobs and a living wage — so every worker can thrive
- Fully funded public schools — investing in the next generation
- Affordable housing — cracking down on corporate landlords and predatory investors
- Affordable childcare and strong public services
- Getting big money out of politics
He is also a strong advocate for:
- Workers’ rights and unions, including passing the PRO Act
- Criminal justice reform that prioritizes fairness and rehabilitation
- Climate action, ensuring clean air, water, and sustainable infrastructure
- Expanding public transit to connect communities to opportunity
Everton understands that government must work for people — not corporations.
Taking on the Status Quo
This race is about more than one seat.
It’s about whether GA-13 will continue with politics as usual — or move forward with leadership that puts people over profit.
Everton is the only candidate in this race running on a bold, unapologetic progressive platform — and he’s doing it without bending to corporate interests.
He’s also committed to building the movement — working with grassroots organizations like Our Revolution to expand people-powered organizing and hold leaders accountable.
A Vision for Georgia’s Future
From the housing crisis to healthcare costs to economic inequality, Everton Blair is focused on delivering real solutions for working families.
He knows that too many communities — especially Black suburban communities — have been left behind by failed infrastructure and economic policy.
He’s fighting to change that:
- Expanding transit and infrastructure investment
- Connecting people to jobs and opportunity
- Building an economy that works for everyone — not just the wealthy
This is leadership rooted in equity, justice, and real-world experience.
Now Is Our Time
Our Revolution believes that real change comes from grassroots power — and from electing leaders who will fight for it.
Everton Blair is ready to bring that fight to Congress.
We’re proud to stand with him.
