I am an immigrant, wife, working mom with three kids, a real estate agent, and most recently a parent advocate. When Covid hit and the schools shut down – the lockdowns, the mask mandates, and the vaccine passports, I knew I had to do something. I saw how Covid was affecting my kids and I knew they couldn’t be the only ones. The school shutdowns and the mandates have affected all kids, especially the special needs kids, kids in low-income neighborhoods, and kids in minority communities. Affects them mentally, socially, and emotionally. And now with Covid almost gone, our so-called leaders in Sacramento still want to implement Covid bills that are unethical and unnecessary and will have a horrific long-lasting impact on our State and our communities and it must stop. This prolonged state of emergency must stop. I’m a champion for businesses, children, families, and GOD.
I will tackle the broken foster care system by working with social workers, non-profits and the communities to help build pilot programs for foster youth. Transitional housing, counseling and vocational schools are a must.
