Dawn is the Democratic Party endorsed candidate in this Assembly race.As a Morro Bay Councilmember, Dawn has worked to promote economic development, improve local infrastructure, and protect the things that make the Central Coast such a special place to live. Her long record of community involvement includes co-founding the Women’s March in San Luis Obispo (WMSLO), which drew a crowd of around 10,000 people in 2017 and has since grown into a successful nonprofit organization.
Shelter and security are human rights, and our housing policy must reflect that. I’ll fight for renters, fight to expand low income housing options, and fight to provide permanent housing for unhoused people. Housing costs are rising far faster than wages–and we have to attack that problem from both sides. I’ll work to increase the stock of affordable housing units while also increasing wages and economic development.
