DAWN ADDIS is a City Councilmember, teacher, and mom, with a 20-year record of leadership in our Central Coast communities. 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.
California’s Central Coast is a national treasure, but climate change is putting it at risk. Wildfires, sea-level rise, habitat loss, and coastal erosion pose long-term threats to our coastline communities and economies. In the State Assembly, I’ll work to secure renewable energy investment and development to protect air quality and reduce carbon emissions. The wild open spaces of the Central Coast are worth fighting for, which is why I’ll push back against out-of-place developments and protect the Central Coast’s natural beauty.
