Dear John,
Lillian's List Foundation trains and supports women interested in running for local offices across North Carolina and especially in areas where progressive women are particularly underrepresented. We are also the biggest cheerleaders of the women currently serving in the North Carolina General Assembly.
To help amplify the work of these amazing legislators, we are highlighting one each week in our #WomanCrushWednesday spotlight. This week, our #WomanCrush is Representative Rosa Gill!
FAST FACTS
Name: Rosa Gill
District: 33 (Wake)
In office since: 2009
Key Committees: Appropriations; Appropriations - Education; Education (K-12); Insurance; Judiciary 1; Pensions & Retirement
Prior career: Educator
FEATURED BILL: FREE BREAKFAST & LUNCH IN PUB. SCH. UNITS
Providing free, healthy school meals [[link removed]] for all helps reduce childhood hunger, enhance academic achievement, and end the stigma created by means-tested programs.
That's why Rep. Gill , along with her colleagues, Reps. Brockman, Quick, and Autry, introduced the Free Breakfast & Lunch in Pub. Sch. Units [[link removed]] bill last April.
The bill [[link removed]] would appropriate the funds to provide [[link removed]] free breakfast and lunch to students in public schools throughout the state.
While the federal government [[link removed]] announced it would extend its free meal program for all through this summer, North Carolina students deserve a permanent program they can count on.
In solidarity,
Sarah Preston
Executive Director
