Heidi Kasama is the right choice and I’m proud to support her candidacy.”
— FORMER COUNTY COMMISSIONER BRUCE WOODBURY

— Tammy Starring, Owner of the #1 Quiznos Franchise Store in the U.S.

“My initial goal was to make sure we inform, organize, and mobilize community leaders for the protection of fundamental parental rights. Parents deserve to be able to care for and nurture their children and their education. Nothing is more important than making sure Nevada’s parents are better able to educate their children. As a mother, Heidi Kasama understands this and will fight for our values in the Nevada Legislature. Please join me in voting for Heidi Kasama.”
— Erin Phillips, Education Advocate
