Malia Vella: Vice-Mayor of Alameda

We as a country and people have become extremely polarized but not beyond repair. The constitutional right to vote in the U.S. is under attack -- from enemies both foreign and domestic. The efforts to restrict voting rights are being introduced stealthily by waves of bills moving through state legislatures and becoming law, limiting the scope of our civil rights. I intend to understand, inform, and spread awareness about such issues learning from the experience and knowledge of experts in their respective fields.
