Are you in support of declaring Pride Proclamations and raising the Pride flag during June in your City once elected?
I would advocate for raising Pride Flag in June once elected.
The Supreme Court has made it legal for Cities to ban unhoused people from living in the street by making a crime to do so with jail time. Would you support your City from proposing a similar ban? If your City already has a ban, would you advocate to overturn the ban and allow for unhoused people their right to sleep and be housed?
Poway recently passed measure banning unhoused people from sleeping on the street. As I understand it, unhoused persons cannot be jailed in our city, unless they refuse service available to them. I support this ban in the hopes that it can HELP people get off the street and believe that it makes our city a safer place to live. Compassion and respect while enforcing this measure remains key.
LGBTQ Centers are vital agencies in our region. The North County LGBTQ Resource Center alone provides lifesaving services that support homeless youth, people in addiction, survivors of violence, seniors in poverty and more as well as enhancing the local business community. If elected, would you advocate for your city to dedicate grants and resources to support our local North County LGBTQ Resource Center?
Yes – I would advocate for resources to be given to LGBTQ resource centers in the North County.
Are you in support of voting yes on California Proposition 3 to repeal Proposition 8 and declaring that the right to marry is a constitutional right in the California Constitution?
Yes- I support anything that makes “right to marry” a right in the California Constitution.
