California Democratic Convention Weekend-Los Angeles
Name tags: check- Suits: check
- Energy: double check
What a weekend! We were very happy to volunteer for Mayor Gavin Newsom for Lt. Governor for the weekend and it was one of the most organized ,volunteer operations we have participated in! Newsom isn’t just a candidate for the Gays and Lesbians of California, but he is for heathcare, teachers, nurses, jobs, environment, and education! Instead of concerning his administration about K-12, he gears his focus to PreK-16, making sure that everyone has the option to not only have a high school diploma, but a college degree as well. For the good of California, Newsom needs to be able to take his leadership from city to statewide.
Throughout the whole weekend, we met many great leaders, and bumping into friends. One of the highlights was being on the convention floor with each other listening to speakers, and then Madame Speaker Nancy Pelosi (pictured right) came on stage and her words were inspiring. Speaker Pelosi spoke about the recent Obama Administration’s healthcare reform victory!
Parties and mingling followed and it was an honor to speak with all the candidates proudly as husband and husband!
