EDUCATION
Donna understands the importance of investing in comprehensive education and training programs for our children. Donna believes every child deserves quality educational opportunities in the classroom, without constraints based on zip codes.

HEALTH CARE

Seeing first-hand how these disparities most often impact women and working families, Donna’s mission is to ensure that everyone has access to quality and affordable health care. Whether related to prevention, diagnosis or treatment options, Donna will lead the charge to ensure no one is subject to a lesser standard of health care from their physician, provider or insurer based on economic status or any other factor.
