Vote Gavin Newsom for Governor Primary Election Day : June 5, 2018

Gavin Newsom believes education is a lifelong pursuit that begins when babies are still in the womb and doesn’t end until we’ve done all we can to prepare them for a good-paying job and the world of work. That means focusing on prenatal care and early childhood education, creating full-service K-12 community schools, increasing college affordability and access, and creating pathways to quality jobs. California’s public school teachers and educators have endorsed Gavin for Governor because they know he’s the right choice for our kids.
