Educators & school boards are the first line of defense in every thriving, diverse democracy. Phoenix Union Ward I deserves a board representative who brings the perspective of a young educator to the table—someone who values the diversity of all communities and perspectives, is deeply committed to the well-being of the entire district, and is invested in the real work of serving students and families, not chasing partisan sound bites. That’s why I’m proud to endorse Isaac Young

As the Clerk of the Osborn Elementary School District Governing Board, a PXU teacher and a future PXU parent, I am confident that Isaac will prioritize community voices, empower our community, and advocate for all the best things that our students and families deserve. With attacks from the current Arizona legislature and the federal government on public education, it’s more important than ever that we elect people who share our values and who are committed to our community, not their own political interests.
