Iris Medina Elston is running for U.S. Congress in Georgia’s 6th Congressional District because she believes we need thoughtful, accountable leadership in Washington that puts people over politics.
Iris is an entrepreneur, a small business owner, and parent — not a career politician. Her background is in building and leading businesses, managing real budgets, creating jobs, and making hard decisions with limited resources. She brings a practical, solutions-oriented perspective shaped by real-world experience, not party talking points.
As a working parent, Iris understands the pressures families face every day — rising costs, economic uncertainty, access to education, and the need for policies that actually work for the people they impact.
She has been actively involved in her community through volunteer efforts both locally and in previous chapters of her life, and she believes leadership should be rooted in listening, responsibility, and service.
Iris is running for Congress because it’s clear that our country needs new leadership — leaders who are focused on results, integrity, and the well-being of constituents, not party favor or political posturing.
Members of Congress make decisions that affect the entire nation, and Iris believes those decisions should be guided by common sense, compassion, and accountability.
Your support helps Iris take the first critical step: securing a place on the ballot and building a campaign that reflects the values of everyday Americans who want a government that works for them.
