I firmly support both women rights to choice and pro-life because I believe its importance to recognize the importance in protecting life while also respecting a woman's autonomy over her body and her decisions.

The public school system should play a supportive and nonjudgmental role in helping students facing an unwanted or crisis pregnancy. Schools can provide access to accurate information counselling, and resources to ensure that the student is aware of all available options while respecting their privacy and personal beliefs. Additionally, schools should offer emotional and academic support, such as flexible scheduling, tutoring and in school childcare options., to ensure that the student can continue their education. Collaboration with local health services and community organizations can help provide comprehensive care and support ensuring that the student feels empowered and supported regardless of their decision.

Free enterprise and the right to private property are indeed essential elements of a productive economic system. They provide individuals and businesses with the freedom to innovate, invest, and make choices that drive economic growth and efficiency. Together, these principles create an environment where economic opportunities are accessible, wealth can be created, and society as a whole can prosper.

I am for government funding for public education from pre-K through college. It is crucial for creating an equitable and prosperous society. By supporting education at all levels, we empower individuals to reach their full potential and contribute meaningfully to their communities in the nation. Investing in education ensures that all individuals, regardless of their social economic background, have access to quality learning opportunities, from early childhood development to higher education.

As a child I gave my life to the Lord in the small Baptist Church in South Central L.A. my grandmother Thelma would pray for hours on the front pew of the church while my grandfather Samuel would walk the floors with the other deacons singing old negro spirituals. The foundation of my faith as a Believer is built on the Kingdom principles of Kingdom love, compassion and respect and for all people, reflecting Gods truth that everyone is created in the image of god. On my faith journey I strive daily to walk a committed life that continues to treat others with dignity, kindness, and grace, recognizing that we are all called to love our neighbors, regardless of their background or belief. Love the foundation of my spiritual beliefs and value

The responsibility of teaching our children sex education lies on the community as a whole. While the simple answer would seem to be "it is the parents responsibility" unfortunately the answer is not that simple. The question than becomes what happens if the parents are not their than who bares responsibility. we must remember that our children are influence by many outside sources exposing them to the three letter word SEX. ,And even the child i=who comes from comes from a secure and healthy home environment with both parents he or she are still expose to unhealthy forms of sex during the coarse of a normal school day. While I do not agree that sexual education should be a requirement and I believe that the parents should not only have the choice to opted out but they should also have full access to view the curriculum before it is taught to their child. Included in the age appropriate curriculum should be education on sexual violence, sex traffic as well as internet safety. The appropriate age to teach a child sexual education can be as earlier as 2 to 3 years old, of coarse this would be age appropriate and at the parents discretion. Within the public school sector sexual education should not be and option for parents and students until transitional ages such as 8 to 11, 3rd grade and up.

Sex Education Should Include; human anatomy/reproduction system; physical and emotional health outcomes; abstinence; contraceptives; consent; sexual violence; sex trafficking; internet dangers
