During that time, and since, I devoted myself to organizing my community around housing justice, tenant protections, workers rights, and childcare. As a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, I collected thousands of emails and testimonies in support of bills that would help workers and tenants. While testifying, it became clear to me that our concerns were being ignored in favor of corporate interests and that no bill related to childcare would be written at all.
I’m running for Assembly District 10 to continue my work and build a Nevada that works for the working class, not just the wealthy. To me, that means Universal Childcare, Housing for All, a living wage, union protections, and tenants rights. I have committed to not accepting any corporate money and working to end the influence of money in local politics.- As a working class single mother - I am committed to uplifting families through universal policies like Housing for All, Rent Control, Tenants rights, Universal Childcare, and a Living Wage.
- Corporate greed must end - this state has invested billions of dollars into uplifting corporations while leaving working families behind.
- The root of most problems is money in politics. When our legislature is beholden to corporate interests and landlords, they cannot work for you. I will work to get money out of local politics and ensure a real "citizen legislature"
