Imagine every child walking into school knowing a healthy meal is already waiting for them 🍎. In California, this is now real. Since 2022, a state law has guaranteed two free meals, breakfast and lunch, to every public school student every single day, no matter their family's income. State officials report nearly 3.5 billion meals have been served since the program began, based on California Department of Education data.

Jennifer Siebel Newsom, California's First Partner, has been closely involved in expanding this program and its farm to school efforts, bringing fresher, local food into cafeterias 🌱. For many kids, this might be their only guaranteed meal that day 💙. A full stomach can be the quiet first step toward a fair chance to learn.

The American Federation of Teachers is asking families to boycott Target for back-to-school shopping for “staying silent” on ICE during Operation Metro Surge in the Twin Cities.

“Today, AFT is joined by organizations nationwide telling Target: your silence on ICE is a choice and we’re responding with ours,” wrote Randi Weingarten, AFT President.

The union announced the boycott with a full-page ad in the New York Times.

We support you Mr. Reveles!

Our Schools Deserve More.

I’m proud to announce my campaign for Montebello Unified School District Board of Education, Trustee Area 2.

As an educator with 10 years of classroom experience and a Master’s degree in Education, I’ve seen firsthand the challenges our students, families, and teachers face. I know what our schools need because I’ve lived it every day. I’m running to ensure every student has access to the opportunities, support, and high-quality education they deserve.

Our platform:

1. Fully Fund Montebello Unified Schools
2. Expand Early Childhood Education & Pre-K Access
3. Smaller Class Sizes for All
4. Neighborhood Public Community Schools
5. Quality Special Education Services for All
6. ICE Out of Schools
7. Culturally Responsive Education for All
8. No Public Money for Private Schools
9. Parent & Community Engagement

Together, we can build schools where every child is supported, every educator is valued, and every family has a voice.

Standing with workers during an ICE raid is not a crime.

This week, the US Justice Department moved to dismiss the case against David Huerta, president of SEIU California, more than a year after he was tackled, pepper sprayed and arrested in Los Angeles for doing exactly that.

"There was never a real case, only an attempt to punish and silence me," Huerta said.

We will not be silenced and we will keep standing with immigrant families and every worker who gets targeted for speaking up.
