Priority Issues:
Today now more than ever when it comes to standing firm for conservative, traditional, American values based on Family, Faith and Freedom, Jimmy Pruett never waivers. Jimmy Pruett has long stood on the conservative principles of Lower Taxes, Less Government, More Personal Responsibility and Liberty and Justice for all. As an entrepreneur, businessman, and commissioned officer in the U.S. Military, Jimmy has a deep understanding , and a conservative vision for this nation and great state, and the limited role the government should have in our lives. Since being elected to the House of Representatives, Jimmy has time and time again proven he is an independent thinker, not a partisan politician that puts what is best for Georgians over politics.
