It meant a lot to me to be able to have my daughter, Ya’Ash, beside me today as we get one step closer to legalizing utility-scale solar in our County. As meaningful as it was to have her next to me today, it was necessitated due to lack of child care options for working parents.

I was happy to be invited to speak teens & young adults from around the nation. Thank you to Pastor Jerry Menchaca for making this event possible & for empowering our youth. To me this event and events like this are very important in building a foundation in faith and community.
