LGBTQ Pride Month: What is at stake in the November 2024 General Election?
This talk will provide both a history of LGBTQ electoral successes in San Diego County and the upcoming ballot measure to officially repeal California’s Prop 8 that was ruled unconstitutional by the US Supreme Court.

He was publicly elected in 2020 and re-elected in 2024 as a member of the San Diego County Democratic Central Committee.
