I am running to address the economic and social disparities that are legendary in this county.
As a judge, I will remain impartial to all those who come before me.
That being said, here are some things that are NO SECRET. They define who I am and are a part of my background. But none of these should mean I cannot administer justice with an even hand. In fact, my WHOLE life is about justice. Otherwise, I would have taken my Princeton degree to Wall Street and would be content with swimming in my safe full of gold coins.
It is no secret that I represent the poor, the battered, the newly arrived, the accused. It is no secret that I have been a professional environmental advocate for a number of years, was chair of the USF Enviornmental Law Society, a member of the California Water Law Conference planning committee, winner of the CA Environmental Law Negotiations Competiton. It is no secret that my husband is an avid kayaker and an instrumental part of bringing water-based recreational business to our community. It is no secret that I was a founding member of friends of the Hood River Waterfront. It is no secret that I am an ally to NRDC and other environmental groups such as Friends of the Gorge. It is no secret that I am a woman.
IT IS NO SECRET THAT IS ILLEGAL TO TEAR DOWN CAMPAIGN SIGNS.
