"As Mayors representing millions of constituents for Arizona’s three major cities and suburbs, we implore Congress to take action and put a stop to these attacks on health care.

Special shout out to Sierra Linda High School JAG student, Analicia Zamora Castro!
She is the only student in our district attending the JAG National Student Leadership Academy here in Washington DC.
Beyond proud of you Analicia for your hard work and as stated during one of the speeches at the luncheon today.... I can’t wait to learn your story ♥️
Tonight, I had the privilege of receiving the Jobs for America’s Graduates, National Above and Beyond Award from my long time friend, Tolleson Mayor, Anna Tovar.
Eleven years ago, our school district suffered budget reductions and the JAG program was cut - this was the very first time I requested to speak at a governing board meeting asking the district not to cut the program.
Fast forward to 2019 and what an honor to be a part of a district and governing board that wants to provide every opportunity for our students. I am proud to say we have reinstated the JAG program at each one of our high schools.
As a proud momma of two JAG students, I am beyond grateful to Graciela Garcia Candia and Jag Arizona for engaging students and ensuring they graduate while simultaneously teaching them skills to succeed beyond high school.
Thank you Jobs for America’s Graduates for this recognition and for 40 years of advocating for students throughout the United States! ♥️
