Lynn Daucher Speaks at
OLLI Meeting
|
How legislators make decisions was the topic of a talk by Assemblywoman
Lynn Daucher (R-Brea) who was the speaker at a recent meeting
of the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute.
“We’re
in a big state with lots of different views,” Daucher said, explaining
that elected officials often must compromise and negotiate with each other on
myriad issues. “No side gets 100 percent ever.”
Daucher also
spoke about infrastructure bonds on November’s ballot and transportation,
education, law enforcement, healthcare and water issues.
She said Californians
should be concerned about the high school dropout rates of Latinos
and other minorities in this state and ensuring that more students graduate from
high school and have the opportunity to get a higher education.
“There
is a vital need to address the problem on the big picture basis,” Daucher
said. “We need to have more children graduate from high school, particularly
minority children because they will be the work force and we can’t
have them be uneducated.”
