Meet Christina…
Her achievements as an Emmy Award-winning journalist, licensed pilot, fluent Spanish speaker, and humanitarian have made her a respected figure in California.
Christina Pascucci on the Issues
We have seen the same problems manifest year after year, yet we keep electing the same leaders. Christina decided to run after interviewing one of her opponents. She was alarmed by what she heard: more of the same. Lip service. Uninspiring rhetoric. She felt she needed to act. These establishment Democrats have stood by idly and been complicit in the rise of extreme ideologies within the Democratic Party. As some justified violence as activism, they stood by, and said nothing.
We must bring back decency and rediscover our humanity and common sense.
Christina sees herself as a JFK-era Democrat. She believes in being fiscally responsible, bringing down the nation’s debt, stimulating the economy by supporting our small businesses, cutting taxes for the middle class, ending the pursuit of endless wars, and tackling issues some on the left have denied exist, like rising crime and the border crisis.
She is the only major candidate prioritizing mental health and looking at innovative ways to address PTSD and depression that go beyond Big Pharma.
She also believes it is critically important to invest in underserved communities, provide family support through childcare and family leave, and urgently tackle the dire illiteracy rate in which 60 percent of California students are not reading at grade level.
The above issues are interconnected with our homelessness crisis and a clean environment, both of which are also priorities for Christina.
Lastly, AI and the way in which misinformation is undermining the future of America are key issues Christina is best equipped to tackle through her decades of experience battling disinformation.
Jobs and Our Economy
Christina’s mother immigrated to the United States with the dream of giving her children a better future. Yet today, too many California families are struggling to make ends meet. Due to inflation and supply chain disruptions, the cost of groceries has gone up over 20% since the beginning of 2020, making it hard for parents to put food on the table, let alone save for the future.
Mental Health Epidemic
The mental health epidemic in America is personal for Christina. She knows firsthand what is like to see a family member struggle with mental health and substance abuse issues. Christina often wonders how different that family member’s life could have been if she had been diagnosed and treated from an early age. The truth is we can’t build a stronger, healthier California without addressing this crisis head-on.
A Plan for Immigration
Christina knows immigration impacts all facets of life in California, from the economy to education, healthcare, and national security. Christina has intimate knowledge of the need to address the humanitarian crisis at the California border and push for real immigration reform. She has reported frequently on migrants, refugees, and border security, while continuing her charity work with migrants on both sides of the border.
Foreign Affairs & National Security
As a career journalist who has traveled to more than 100 countries across seven continents, reported from war zones and conflict areas, interviewed major world leaders, worked with children impacted by war, and interviewed top military brass at home, Christina is personally familiar with the challenges our country faces with national security. She has worked with children impacted by conflict in Haiti, Ukraine, the Middle East, and Latin America.
