Why Tanya is Running to Be Your Advocate
Your Lawyer, Your Watchdog, Your Protector
When Tanya Miller is asked why she's running for Attorney General, her answer is simple: because this office has the power to protect every family, business and community in Georgia.
Tanya believes the Attorney General (AG) must be the top lawyer for the people. The office doesn't represent one political party; it represents everyone. Understanding the duties of the AG is the key to understanding Tanya's mission: to use this office to fight for you.
Here are the four key responsibilities of the office and why Tanya is the right person to lead it:
1. The Top Law Enforcement Officer: Ensuring Public Safety
As an experienced prosecutor, Tanya Miller knows this role from the inside. The Attorney General works with local police and sheriffs to keep our communities safe by leading the fight against the most dangerous and complex criminal operations.
Tanya has the background and skill to take on:
Human trafficking and online child exploitation.
Gang violence and illegal gun trafficking.
Public corruption and organized crime.
The flow of deadly drugs like fentanyl into our state.
She understands the importance of partnering with and supporting local law enforcement, and she is prepared on day one to lead the fight against the violent crime that threatens our families.
2. The People's Watchdog: Protecting Your Family and Your Wallet
For Tanya, this is the heart of the job. The Attorney General is Georgia's top consumer protection official, and she believes this is where the office can make the biggest difference in people's lives.
Every day, Georgians are targeted by:
Scammers who use robocalls to steal from our seniors.
Predatory lenders who trap families in cycles of debt.
Corporations that engage in illegal price gouging on essentials like groceries and power.
Tanya is running to be your watchdog—to take on these powerful interests and fight these battles so your family doesn't have to. She will use the full power of the office to protect your pocketbook.
3. The Guardian of the Law: Upholding the Constitution
Tanya believes the Attorney General's duty to the Constitution is sacred and must be kept above politics. The AG must provide impartial legal advice to state leaders and defend the constitutional rights of every Georgian.
This requires an independent voice, guided by the law—not by a political agenda. Tanya is committed to being that voice. She will always defend the fundamental rights of every citizen, from the right to vote to the right to privacy, ensuring equal justice for all.
4. The State's Lawyer: Representing Georgia in Court
The State of Georgia needs an effective and ethical law firm, and the Attorney General provides it. The AG’s office represents the state in court, advises state agencies, and ensures that government actions comply with the Constitution and the law.
Tanya understands that this work isn’t just technical—it requires independent judgment and a commitment to fairness. She will make sure the state’s legal work is carried out with integrity, professionalism, and transparency, protecting taxpayers while ensuring that Georgia’s government is accountable and acts in the public’s best interest.
The Right Experience, The Right Mission
The job of Attorney General is clear: to represent the state, protect consumers, ensure public safety and uphold the law. Tanya Miller isn't just running for an office; she's running to fulfill that mission for every Georgian.
Her experience as a prosecutor has prepared her to keep us safe. Her passion for fairness makes her the watchdog we need to protect our finances. Her unwavering integrity makes her the guardian our rights deserve.
Tanya Miller is ready to be your Attorney General and put this office to work for you.
