Imagine how different society would be if we fully funded what nurtures our society like education and healthcare, instead of what punishes folks like police and prisons.

We are a smart community. We are a sustainable community. We are people who from all around the world, call this place, home. Who of these people would deny the rights of any single child? Let us vote for school board trustees with care so no child is left out. ❤️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈
