- Gender Equality
-
Sandra is a recognized leader for gender equality and reproductive justice. As your State Senator, she will continue to fight for full equality and opportunity for all women, using her national platform to ensure California remains a leader on these issues.
- Education
-
Sandra comes from a family of public school teachers - her mother was a kindergarten teacher and is now a guidance counselor and Sandra was the first person in her father's family to earn a bachelor's degree. These experiences are the reason education is one of Sandra's top priorities.
- Environment and Transportation
-
Sandra believes that global climate change is one of the most critical issues of our time. That is why she has spoken out in support of a statewide fracking moratorium, plastic bag ban, and why she takes the responsibility of being an environmental champion in the legislature very seriously.
