Najera told the El Paso Times that she supported a bond to supplement the cost of planned additions to El Paso Community College campuses. She said, "I don't think a bond will be supported by the voters but I think it's time. It could pass as long as the voters know why and the reasoning is clear and the board is very transparent in how the money is going to be used."[1]
