MONICA- Good afternoon. Today we have Noah Harbuck, who’s running for Georgia House district 145. Joining us. Thank you for being here.
NOAH- Thank you for having me.
MONICA- I want to ask you a few questions. First off, what do you think is the biggest issue or challenge that needs to be addressed, and how do you plan on solving that? If elected?
NOAH- Our biggest issue today is inflation. The price, the rising price of gas, groceries, insurance, it affects everybody. It affects whether if you have a fixed income or if you have a six figure salary and insurance and insurance that I deal with every day. People ask me about their bill and and I have to explain to them why their bill is going up. And in the end, if elected to state House, I plan on focusing on voting on policies that lower our taxes to, ease the financial burden of Georgians.
MONICA- That’s great. All right. Now, how is your background or experience prepared you for this role?
NOAH- So like I said earlier, I’m going to I’m an insurance agent. I’m a customer service manager. That’s my title, so I do I talk to people every day, whether it’s about a claim, whether it’s about their bill. what I do is I listen to their problems and I find a solution. And that’s exactly what I’m going to do on the state House.
MONICA- All right. Now, this role has been held by a Republican for several election cycles. What would progress look like to you if elected?
NOAH- So I think our party has done a great job in the statehouse. progress to me looks like being more proactive than reactive. things happen every day. Things change every day. And that’s what progress looks like to me. Being proactive instead of reactive.
MONICA- All right. And so wanting to wrap up at first, I want to ask what makes you the best candidate or why should voters vote for you?
NOAH- I think I’m the best candidate because I listen to everybody. I’ve made it very public. My phone number, very public. I like to share it now, if that’s okay.
MONICA- Go for it.
