Lucy will oppose Religious Freedom and Restoration Act (RFRA) and similar discriminatory legislation, because these laws disparage our friends and allies in the LGBT community and hurt our economic viability.
Education
Lucy created the “Champion in The Making Legacy Foundation” for graduating high school students attending traditional as well as technical and training colleges and universities – with recipients currently attending Kennesaw State University.
