Equality

Amir Farokhi believes that Atlanta will flourish only if every one of its residents are treated equally. Atlanta’s LGBT community, one of the largest in the nation, contributes to every facet of Atlanta’s success. City Hall must work to protect and promote equality in Atlanta so that Atlanta leads the call for equality in Georgia.

Amir's Solutions

Amir Farokhi will:

  • call on the City to better promote its domestic partners registry.
  • demand that the City only award contracts to companies that provide full benefits to domestic partners.
  • call on the Mayor to appoint qualified LGBT residents to cabinet posts and department heads.

“Amir will bring a fresh dose of decency, decorum and dignity to the City Council. His deep commitment to integrity and public service will help restore our trust in City Hall, and his training, professional experience and intelligence will give us someone on Council who we know will make thoughtful decisions in the public interest.”
