✨ENDORSEMENT ALERT✨:
"I was knocked unconscious and exhibited a fencing response following a forceful blow to the head from a volleyball spike by a biological male playing on the opposing women’s team. The sheer impact of the ball has left me with significant long-term physical and mental effects, including impaired vision, partial paralysis, balance issues, anxiety, and depression. Female high school athletes' physical safety, ability to compete without fear, and eligibility for scholarships must be protected. That protection starts at the local level! Angie Todd's diligent work and efforts as a member of the Onslow County Board of Education make her a proven choice for protecting students while also staying in alignment with the values her constituents expect. A few examples of her work that protects students include: being the voice that delivered legislation to protect students when searches are needed, the trigger that resulted in the suspension of licenses of teachers that were charged and/or convicted of s*x crimes, and Angie's "no" vote for Onslow County School District to hire an athletic director that was a past member of the North Carolina High School Athletic Association which voted to allow transgendering students to play on the opposite s*x teams in high school sports, which was the very vote that led to my physical damage and harm. Since my life-altering injuries at the hands of a male in women’s sports, I have made waves advocating for women’s fairness and safety around the country. Join me in this critical effort by taking a stand locally to protect students by supporting Angie Todd for the Onslow County Board of Education."
