CA School Choice & LAUSD Recall Rally
The community is invited to stop at the foot of the Seal Beach Pier on Saturday, Nov. 20 when West Orange County Republican Women Federated hosts a petition rally from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
– California residents can sign the Californian School Choice petition to put that initiative onto the November 2022 ballot. Learn how parents can receive $14,000 per year (tax neutral) for school of their choice and save the unspent money for their child’s college education.
– Residents residing in the Los Alamitos Unified School Board district can sign the recall petition to remove three members of the board (two are up for re-election next year and cannot be recalled).
If you’ve been thinking of registering as a Republican, we can also help! WOC RWF rallies are fun and a great way to meet like-minded Republicans. For more information, email WOC_RWF@aol.com.
