Representation matters. Recruit a pipeline of qualified, underrepresented judicial applicants.
Defend choice and human rights. Protect reproductive healthcare and lgbtq rights.
Governor's Council approves or rejects potential state judges. As an attorney and former special education teacher who's worked with court-involved youth, I know that judges matter.
I'm asking for your vote in November so that I can continue advocating for:
-
diversion programs for court-involved youth,
-
mental health and substance abuse experts in our justice system,
-
addressing racial sentencing disparities,
-
local representation on Parole Board and in our courts,
-
protecting unfettered access to reproductive health,
-
protecting LGBTQ+ rights.
