As our Representative, she will protect neighborhood schools from forced closings, fight for a living wage, and affordable health care and work to reduce crime and increase public safety throughout the 26th District. She is the only candidate in this race who strongly and publicly supported the call for a democratically elected school board, opposed public funding for charter schools, and has vowed to make sure our seniors and retirees get the pensions they earned.
