In the spirit of our Founding Fathers—who envisioned a republic where power flows not from distant tyrants or unelected elites, but from the sovereign will of the people—Jonathan Chavez is leading the charge to restore that sacred balance in Georgia’s 13th Congressional District. No longer will Washington bureaucrats dictate our economy with suffocating regulations; instead, free markets will empower entrepreneurs and workers to build wealth unhindered. Education will return to the hands of parents and local communities, fostering school choice and innovation free from federal mandates. Healthcare choices will belong to families, not faceless agencies, through market-driven reforms that slash costs and honor personal freedom. Taxes will be tamed with a simpler, fairer code that rewards hard work, while our environment thrives under responsible stewardship that protects without punishing prosperity. And in foreign affairs, an America First stance will safeguard our sovereignty with strong borders and a vigilant military, echoing the Founders’ wisdom that true security begins at home. Under Jonathan’s unwavering leadership, we’ll reclaim the power that is rightfully ours, forging a brighter tomorrow where every Georgian stands tall as the author of their destiny—just as the framers intended.

In the arena of American politics, where bold visions clash with the inertia of the status quo, a strong political plan isn’t forged in committee rooms or drafted by distant consultants—it’s ignited by unyielding leadership that rallies the people and cuts through the noise. Jonathan Chavez embodies this truth for Georgia’s 13th Congressional District, a proven leader whose conservative blueprint for prosperity demands action now: unleashing free-market reforms to supercharge our economy, reclaiming education for parents over bureaucrats, and delivering healthcare that’s affordable and innovative, free from Obamacare’s shackles. With fiscal discipline to slash taxes and wasteful spending, balanced stewardship of our environment through energy independence, and an America First foreign policy fortified by a robust military and secure borders, Jonathan’s plan isn’t mere rhetoric—it’s a roadmap to triumph, powered by the grit of everyday Georgians. Under his guidance, we’ll not only weather the storms of uncertainty but chart a course to greatness, proving that true leadership transforms plans into legacies that echo through generations.

In the pursuit of true fiscal equity that echoes the American promise of opportunity for every citizen, Jonathan Chavez champions the FairTax proposal as the cornerstone of “Fair Tax For All” in Georgia’s 13th Congressional District—a bold replacement for the convoluted federal income, payroll, corporate, and estate taxes with a simple 23% national sales tax on new goods and services, abolishing the IRS and its burdensome four-million-word code once and for all. This system levels the playing field by treating every purchaser equally at the register, while delivering a monthly prebate rebate to all legal households—enough to cover taxes on essentials up to the poverty level, ensuring low-income families pay zero net tax and turning regressive burdens into progressive relief that rewards thrift and penalizes only lavish spending. Workers pocket their full paychecks without withholdings, seniors enjoy tax-free Social Security and pensions, and businesses flourish free from hidden compliance costs, sparking economic growth, job creation, and wage hikes that lift every Georgian from bustling urban centers to rural heartlands. Under Jonathan’s leadership, the FairTax isn’t just reform—it’s a reclamation of fairness, where the wealthy shoulder more through their choices, the middle class thrives unencumbered, and the vulnerable are shielded, forging a prosperous future where tax freedom empowers us all to build the lives we deserve.

Co-sponsor a Congressional Term Limits Amendment imposing a 12-year maximum on U.S. House service (six two-year terms), allowing new voices, fresh ideas, and genuine constituent accountability to replace entrenched incumbency. Go further than either party has: ban Members of Congress, their spouses, and dependent children from owning individual stocks while in office, not just buying new ones, and require disclosure of any remaining trades within 48 hours. Refuse corporate PAC money, and push to require that every campaign contribution of $1,000 or more be disclosed online within 48 hours, year-round. Advocate for a Federal Performance Budget Pilot requiring major federal agencies to publish plain-language quarterly scorecards measuring outcomes (not spending) against stated goals, with results reported directly to Congressional oversight committees. Establish a GA-13 Congressional Accountability Office, a constituent-accessible online portal publishing my own voting record, constituent service metrics, sponsored legislation status, and town hall schedule in real time, with quarterly in-person accountability sessions in each county of the district. Support open-source redistricting requirements at the federal level, mandating that Congressional district maps be drawn by independent, non-partisan commissions using transparent, publicly auditable algorithms that prioritize community integrity over partisan advantage.

Protect and strengthen the new federal scholarship tax credit. The 2025 tax law created a dollar-for-dollar federal tax credit of up to $1,700 for donations to K-12 scholarship organizations, beginning in 2027, and Governor Kemp opted Georgia in in January 2026, with families earning under 300% of area median income eligible. I will fight to keep it funded, raise the cap, and make sure GA-13 families, including private school and homeschool families, know how to use it alongside Georgia's Promise Scholarship. Protect and expand homeschool family rights at the federal level, opposing any federal regulations that would impose reporting burdens or curriculum mandates on homeschooling families.

Enact the Pre-Existing Condition Coverage Program (PCCP), my signature proposal: a targeted federal backstop, modeled on Medicare's End-Stage Renal Disease program, that covers treatment for serious pre-existing conditions through Medicare's existing payment system so private premiums can fall for everyone else. It is paid for by redirecting, not repealing: as premiums fall, the federal government captures the savings on the subsidies it already pays to lower premiums, and no family loses its tax credit. Establish a uniform federal coverage floor: a national minimum benefit standard for every plan sold across state lines, with guaranteed issue, no lifetime or annual limits, and full protection for pre-existing conditions, so that interstate competition drives prices down without driving coverage quality down. This is the same standard laid out in my GA-13 Healthcare Platform. Make telehealth permanent. Congress has extended Medicare's telehealth flexibilities only through December 31, 2027. I will push to make them permanent before that deadline so patients in Newton, Henry, and Rockdale counties, where specialist access remains limited, do not face another cliff. As a healthcare worker and administrator, I will personally advocate in committee for workforce-level reforms: increasing residency slots, expanding loan forgiveness for healthcare workers who serve in underserved communities, and addressing the staffing crisis that has driven up care costs and reduced access in community hospitals. Oppose any cut to Medicaid funding that is not paired with a fully funded replacement for the people it covers, because shifting costs onto community hospitals and emergency rooms is not savings.

The 2025 tax law made Direct Primary Care memberships HSA-compatible and opened HSAs to bronze and catastrophic marketplace plans. I will push to raise contribution limits, remove the high-deductible plan requirement, and allow HSA dollars to pay premiums.

Finish the job on ROAD: push appropriators to fund the HOME, rental assistance, and rural housing programs the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act authorized, and introduce the GA-13 Housing Supply and Stability Act to fast-track permitting and pair the newly expanded Low-Income Housing Tax Credit with mixed-income development in high-cost suburban corridors in Henry, Newton, Rockdale, and Gwinnett counties. Advocate for emergency rental assistance reauthorization at the federal level, with streamlined direct-to-tenant disbursement to prevent evictions before court proceedings begin. Champion a federal 30-day minimum notice requirement for rent increases above 10%, creating a floor of basic renter rights. Work with HUD to designate high-eviction ZIP codes in GA-13 as priority zones for housing counseling and right-to-cure pilot programs.

Support cooperation between local jails and federal immigration authorities on criminal offenders, as Georgia's HB 1105 (2024) now requires and as the Laken Riley Act reinforced at the federal level in 2025, while keeping patrol officers focused on local crime so immigrant families in GA-13 report crimes and serve as witnesses without fear.

Support Community Violence Intervention (CVI) grant funding for evidence-based street outreach programs, with rigorous independent evaluation so federal dollars follow the programs that measurably reduce shootings. Protect the Crime Victims Fund. Despite the 2021 VOCA Fix, deposits into the fund have fallen sharply, forcing cuts to victim-service grants in Georgia. I will push for a stable funding floor so victim advocates, shelters, and child advocacy centers serving GA-13 can keep their doors open.

Premium tax credit savings capture (primary source). Removing the highest-cost conditions from private risk pools lowers benchmark premiums. Under the existing premium tax credit formula, an enrollee’s required contribution is fixed by income, so each dollar of premium reduction reduces the federal credit by a dollar. The PCCP statute directs those federal savings into the PCCP Trust Fund. No family’s credit is repealed, capped, or made harder to qualify for; enrollees continue to receive the credit and pay the same or less for coverage. This is the same pass-through mechanism the federal government already uses to fund Georgia’s state reinsurance program. Insurer risk-adjustment assessment. A risk-adjustment assessment levied on private insurers whose risk pool composition benefits from the carve-out structure, reflecting a partial offset of federal cost by the private market participants whose premium structures are improved by the program. Dedicated payroll tax. A payroll tax assessed on both employers and employees, structured like the Medicare Part A hospital insurance tax but deposited exclusively in the PCCP Trust Fund. The rate is set at the lowest level needed to close the gap remaining after the first two sources, and any rate change requires an act of Congress. The fiscal case for the PCCP rests on a recognition that the relevant comparison is not between program cost and zero expenditure, but between program cost and the cost of the status quo. High-cost enrollees with unmanaged pre-existing conditions generate substantial expenditure through emergency services, late-stage disease treatment, and public program utilization. The PCCP converts this crisis-driven, high-unit-cost expenditure into planned, preventive, lower-unit-cost treatment. The actuarial improvement in private market risk pools — producing broader enrollment, better risk distribution, and lower premiums — generates system-wide savings that partially offset federal program costs. The premium tax credit savings capture makes this offset explicit and measurable rather than assumed. It is one funding source among several and does not by itself cover full program cost; the insurer assessment and payroll tax remain necessary.
