Candidate for GA, 13th Congressional District
Everton is running to represent Georgia’s 13th Congressional District because too many families are working harder but getting less; squeezed by rising costs, aging infrastructure, and leaders who’ve grown disconnected from the people they serve. This race is the most important Democratic Primary of 2026; it’s a flagship contest in the preservation of our democracy.

Community Action Center
The Democratic National Committee’s Local Listeners program is built around a simple idea: Democrats are stronger when they listen first. The program trains volunteers and organizers to have real, relationship-based conversations—especially in communities that often feel ignored—so local concerns, not assumptions, shape messaging and outreach. Instead of leading with talking points, Local Listeners creates a feedback loop that helps campaigns stay grounded in what voters actually care about.
Recent policy changes could allow private equity firms greater access to retirement accounts, raising concerns about higher fees, increased risk, and reduced transparency for everyday savers. Retirement funds are meant to provide long-term security — not expose workers to complex, high-risk investments they may not fully understand. This petition urges federal regulators and lawmakers to protect retirement accounts by limiting private equity involvement and ensuring strong safeguards for workers’ savings.
World leaders have made repeated climate commitments, but progress remains uneven as emissions continue to rise and deadlines slip. Without stronger follow-through, the gap between promises and action will keep growing. This petition calls on global leaders to meet their existing climate commitments, strengthen targets where needed, and take measurable steps to reduce emissions and protect vulnerable communities.
