MA, IN ORGANIZATIONAL LEADERSHIP. ACCEPTS ZERO CORPORATE MONEY SO SHE IS BEHOLDEN TO THE PEOPLE AND NOT SPECIAL INTERESTS.
WE are running on a visionary platform. Angelica, with the help of the people of CA29, will work in Congress to push for a 21st Century Economy where we lift people out of poverty, grow the middle class, make the ultra-wealthy billionaire class pay their fair share, all while protecting our environment. It's an economic policy that puts the quality of life for workers and their families first.
In the 21st Century each and every one of us should have a job that pays a living wage, where you can work 30 hours a week, not flounder in poverty, and spend more quality time with friends and family. These will be jobs that preserve our environment, invest in the expansion of public transportation, and rebuild our crumbling infrastructure.
