ATLANTA, Sept. 11, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Katrina Pierson, senior advisor (Black Voices for Trump) visited Atlanta, GA on Thursday, September 10th for a Make America Great Again! Meet & Greet. While thanking Trump supporters for their hard work and consistent support of the campaign, she recognized congressional candidate for Georgia's fifth district, Angela Stanton-King(R).
"Angela Stanton-King is the definition of courageous and strong. She is the recipient of a pardon by President Trump, and now running for congress. Thank you for being such a leader and being so outspoken. I always say, there is such a vacuum of leadership in the community and now we have someone who is out there a beneficiary of our policies, making a whole new life for herself for her and others," Pierson proudly shared.
Stanton-King has spoken candidly about her past non-violent felony that resulted in her giving birth in prison, chained to a bed. Stanton-King was mentored by Alveda King (niece of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.) and became a community advocate and entrepreneur. Years after being released from prison, Stanton-King worked with the President Trump's team to pass the First Step Act which prohibits female inmates from being shackled to a hospital bed while giving birth.
As the Republican candidate for Georgia's fifth district, Stanton-King says her testimony is what makes her the right candidate for the district. "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over without getting a different result. This district has voted democrat faithfully for years with very little change. Change only happens when we do something different. I believe I am that change. I'm walking proof that second chances work. I want to help others get the same opportunities I've been given.
