“For close to a hundred years, the California School Employees Association has fought to protect the teachers, administrators, and other staff members who ensure our children receive a quality, public education. I am proud to receive their support. I look forward to working with CSEA to create practical, equitable solutions to the problems our schools face on a daily basis, fight for increased funding for our public education system, and take steps to ensure our teachers have the support they need to effectively do their jobs.”
