Happy Indigenous Peoples Day to all who celebrate!
This past week has been incredibly eventful. We kicked things off at Candidates Night hosted by the Hispanic Round Table, followed by the League of Women's Voters Judicial Candidate Forum, where I had the opportunity to share my vision for bringing J.O.Y to the bench.
Over the weekend, I had the pleasure of participating in Richmond Heights Votes' city-wide day of action. After canvassing and working up an appetite, I was honored to attend the Ohio Young Black Democrats' voter engagement brunch! This work may be exhausting, but the reward of bringing J.O.Y to the community makes it all worthwhile.
With just 21 days left until we bring J.O.Y to the bench, I encourage everyone to sign up for our weekly emails below to stay updated on campaign volunteer opportunities for Election Day. Let's keep the momentum going!
