 Issues 

Sheila will fight for:

➔ Healthcare +

"I believe that everyone should have access to affordable, quality healthcare as a right."

➔ Education +

"The school to prison pipeline is real in America. I believe our school resource officers need to evaluate and revise their roles within the schools to protect and serve - not to interrogate and/or discipline."

➔ Human Rights +

Fully supports the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA).

Believes in equal pay for equal work.

Believes medical decisions should be made by a woman and her health care provider. Legislators do not belong in our medical offices.

➔ Gun Violence Prevention +

"I believe we can reduce gun violence through common sense gun reform, including universal background checks and universal laws to offer licenses to hold a firearm."

➔ Environment/Energy +

"I want the General Assembly to take seriously the link between local actions and our climate. We have the power to make meaningful changes, starting in our own communities."
