Tanya Miller

Representative | Atlanta, GA

Tanya Miller is the State Representative for the people of Georgia’s District 62. Prior to her election in 2022, Tanya spent eight years on the frontlines of public safety as a prosecutor in the Crimes Against Women and Children Unit and Homicide Unit, fighting to get justice for victims of unspeakable tragedy. Her current practice specializes in criminal defense, civil rights, and police brutality cases. Tanya, joining forces with advocacy groups and police brutality victims, successfully lobbied to change the Atlanta Police Department’s and the Department of Justice’s body camera policy to one that provides for increased accountability.

In the Georgia General Assembly, Tanya quickly established herself as a leading voice on criminal justice reform, Medicaid expansion, economic development in minority communities, and public safety. She has stood firmly against misguided efforts to criminalize at-risk youth, defund public schools, and diminish voting rights in Georgia.
