Source-published biography

As an immigration lawyer, he has spent years inside this system. He has seen the parts that work, the parts that fail, and the parts that destroy people's lives for no good reason. He has seen honorable veterans deported. He has seen U.S. citizens and potential U.S. citizens wrongly caught up in enforcement. A GAO review found that ICE arrested 674, detained 121, and even removed 70 potential U.S. citizens between fiscal year 2015 and the second quarter of 2020. GAO also found ICE issued detainers for at least 895 potential U.S. citizens during that period. That is not a minor paperwork problem. That is a government system making life-changing mistakes.

The numbers tell the story. Pew reported in late 2025 that just 9% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents and 26% of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents said they trusted the federal government to do what is right just about always or most of the time. That is not just low. It is a warning sign.

Despite all of this, McCormick has made extending the Trump's wealthy-first tax cuts a major economic priority. Independent analysis shows the biggest benefits of extending these cuts would flow disproportionately to higher-income households and major business interests. In fact, Big Business has publicly praised McCormick for fighting to extend those tax breaks because it lines their pockets. The Tax Policy Center found that households making about $450,000 or more would receive nearly half of the benefit, about 45%, while middle-income households would get about $1,000 on average. That is exactly what is wrong with Washington. The people in the middle get the crumbs.

Reinstate the Child Tax Credit That Cut Child Poverty in Half — We already know what works. McCormick and Congress failed to finish the job. The expanded Child Tax Credit helped drive a 46% drop in child poverty in 2021, cutting the rate from 9.7% to 5.2%. That was one of the clearest examples in recent memory of government actually making life better for working families. And yet Washington let it slip away. If this is a priority, then the people we send to Congress need to get it done. McCormick was there. He could not get the job done. Tony will fight for a stronger, lasting Child Tax Credit because no child in Georgia should grow up in poverty while Washington argues and families suffer.

Make Childcare Tax-Deductible for Working Families — Tony's family lived this. With two young kids and a small business to build, they saw firsthand how crushing childcare costs can be. Then tax time comes, and Washington pretends that $6,000 is a realistic childcare bill for a family with two kids. Every working parent in Georgia knows that is absurd. That is not a serious reflection of what childcare actually costs, and it is not serious relief. If parents are paying for childcare so they can go to work, those costs should be tax-deductible up to the real market cost of care. Tony supports making childcare expenses fully tax-deductible up to the real cost of care, because working families should not be taxed on the money they have to spend just to go to work and earn a paycheck. Washington knows how to write tax rules that help the wealthy. It is time to write them for the working class too.

Expand the Employer Childcare Credit — If Washington is going to hand out tax breaks to big businesses, those tax breaks should be targeted at actually helping working families. The federal Employer-Provided Childcare Credit is designed to reward employers who help cover childcare costs for their workers. That is exactly the kind of business incentive government should be using. If a company wants a tax break, it should get one for investing in its people, not just for padding the bottom line. Tony will fight to expand and strengthen this credit so more employers help working parents stay in the workforce, support their families, and build a stronger middle class.

Raise the Minimum Wage and Index It to Inflation — The federal minimum wage has been stuck at $7.25 since 2009. The federal tipped cash wage has been stuck at $2.13 since 1996. That is not an economic policy that respects work. That is Washington telling working people to do more with less, year after year. Tony supports raising the minimum wage and indexing it so workers do not keep losing ground every year Congress fails to act. And servers, bartenders, and hospitality workers deserve better than a tipped wage system that leaves too many people one slow shift away from not making rent. A mom working as a server at the local restaurant should not be forced to rely solely on the generosity of customers to feed her kids.

And the facts matter here. In 2025, NATO said all allies were expected to meet or exceed the alliance's longstanding 2% of GDP defense spending target. That is a dramatic change from 2014, when only three allies met that benchmark. European allies and Canada have been increasing defense spending for years. So the right message today is not that alliances are weak. The right message is that alliances work when America leads them well.

And the facts matter here. In 2025, NATO said all allies were expected to meet or exceed the alliance's longstanding 2% of GDP defense spending target. That is a dramatic change from 2014, when only three allies met that benchmark. European allies and Canada have been increasing defense spending for years. So the right message today is not that alliances are weak. The right message is that alliances work when America leads them well.
