<h3>I stand for dignity, fairness, and opportunity for every person in our community.</h3>Having grown up in Fair Oaks and Carmichael in a family that struggled after my parents’ divorce, I learned early what it feels like when systems don’t support families in crisis. Those experiences shaped my belief that every person deserves stability, safety, and the chance to build a better life. Leaving home at 17, putting myself through college, and spending 40 years serving children and families in public education taught me the power of resilience, empathy, and community. I am, at my core, a mom, a wife, an educator, and a neighbor who believes in showing up for people with compassion and integrity. <h3>I stand for expanding access to the essentials that help people thrive: affordable housing, safe communities, accessible healthcare, and support systems that honor people’s humanity.</h3>I know firsthand how hard it can be to secure stable housing, and I believe we must work together to create solutions that increase affordability, expand rental and homeownership pathways, and prioritize people over bureaucracy.&nbsp; <h3>I believe deeply that women deserve full autonomy, safety, and equitable opportunities.</h3>My own experiences with sexism, limited maternity protections, and pay inequity strengthened my commitment to advocating for women’s rights, reproductive freedom, and fair workplaces where women can grow and lead without barriers. <h3>I stand for strong, well-resourced public schools because I have witnessed for decades how education transforms lives.</h3>Every child, regardless of race, income, language, ability/disability, or background, should have access to world-class learning opportunities that prepare them not just for careers, but for contributing meaningfully to their communities.&nbsp; <h3>I also stand for supporting people who are unsheltered with compassion, not punishment.</h3>Having lost my brother after years of homelessness, I believe we must treat people experiencing mental illness, trauma, and housing instability with humanity, while expanding mental health care, diverse housing options, and pathways to stability. <h3>I stand for integrity, compassion, and justice as the foundation of community life.&nbsp; </h3>My decades of work in diverse schools have shown me the ongoing need to address systemic racism, improve bias training, and ensure accountability in systems that hold power. I believe we must protect our environment, support sustainable agriculture, and acknowledge the real impacts of climate change on families, workers, and our shared future. I believe that communities are strongest when everyone has a voice, when we listen to one another, engage across differences, and commit to shared values of respect, honesty, and inclusion.A note on geography: District 7 covers the cities of Citrus Heights, Folsom, and Rancho Cordova, and a number of unincorporated communities: Carmichael (partially), Fair Oaks, Orangevale, Gold River, North Highlands, Foothill Farms, Rosemont, Mather, and McClellan Park.

She has led schools in communities ranging from high-poverty urban districts to small rural counties, always centering the students and families who needed the most support while maintaining a focus on all students.As superintendent of Amador County Unified School District, before and during the COVID pandemic, Amy led the school community through crises — facing political pressure, personal threats, and hard budget decisions — and always made the calls she believed were right, not the ones that were easy or popular. As deputy superintendent at San Juan Unified School District, she was known as a problem solver, collaborator and leader who was not afraid to make hard decisions to support staff and keep students at the center.Amy is running for Assembly because the issues she has spent her life working on — education, affordability, healthcare, and the strength of our public institutions — have never been more urgent. She is ready to bring that experience, and that sense of urgency, to Sacramento.&nbsp; <img src="https://run.imgix.net/d6f278b3-8c97-4454-ad75-eaec2443074b/b5c6867b-0cfd-4cce-9769-88f0a8296f09/b5c6867b-0cfd-4cce-9769-88f0a8296f09.jpeg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=18%2C14%2C472%2C354&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="left" alignwidth="35" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed">Amy attended Point Loma College (now Point Loma Nazarene University), earning her Bachelor of Arts degree in Liberal Studies and a teaching credential through the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE SACRAMENTO, CA—Today, public educator Amy Slavensky announced unanimous pre-endorsement from the California Democratic Party for her campaign for California’s 7th Assembly District, currently represented by Republican Assemblymember Josh Hoover. This landmark show of support from the Democratic Party comes on the heels of <a href="https://www.amyslavensky.com/endorsements">critical endorsements</a> from the California Teachers Association (CTA), the California School Employees Association (CSEA), the California Federation of Teachers (CFT), the California Democratic Legislative Women’s Caucus, and sitting elected officials.&nbsp; “Voters are ready for a representative who shares their priorities—strong public schools, affordable healthcare, lower costs of living—and better representation than a passive Republican incumbent who is more interested in protecting his seat than people who want an advocate,” said Amy Slavensky. “I’ve served California families my whole life as a teacher and educational leader. It is a disservice that Hoover is shying away from the issues that are putting a good life out of reach for too many. I’m committed to working alongside partners in labor and families in my district to build a better California that works for everybody.”&nbsp; “Amy Slavensky began her career in public school education as a teacher and CTA member. She raised a family on a teacher's salary and has worked at every level of public education during her 40-year career to advocate and improve conditions for teachers, students, and their families. That's why our union has recommended Amy for State Assembly,” said David B. Goldberg, President of the California Teachers Association. “California educators deserve an ally who will proactively support the needs and interests of teachers, counselors, special education specialists, school nurses—and we know Amy is prepared to do that.” “The California School Employees Association and our quarter million members proudly endorse Amy Slavensky for State Assembly,” said CSEA Association President Adam Weinberger. “With 40 years in public school education, Amy’s record reflects a deep commitment to service and to the communities our schools serve. We know she will be a strong advocate for the classified employees who work every day to keep California’s schools running, and for our students.”"We are endorsing Amy for State Assembly because she knows firsthand what teachers, school support staff, and community college faculty and staff across the state are facing,” said CFT President Jeff Freitas. “Amy’s leadership and experience are needed to improve and strengthen our public schools and colleges, and go to bat on other urgent issues impacting our members, like unaffordable healthcare, housing, and childcare." “Women currently make up 49 percent of the legislature, and have five women serving as Constitutional Officers,” said State Assembly Majority Leader Cecelia Aguiar-Curry, California Democratic Legislative Women’s Caucus Chair. “While we have achieved gender parity in the State Senate, we have not yet achieved full gender parity across the legislature and are committed to continuing to grow our representation with leaders like you. The communities of the 7th Assembly District deserve your strong voice in Sacramento.”&nbsp; Endorsement from lead education unions also builds campaign momentum from December’s SEIU and California Women’s List <a href="https://www.amyslavensky.com/news/news-december-18-amy-slavensky-endorsed-seiu-california-womens-list">endorsements</a>.&nbsp; California’s 7th Assembly district is located in Sacramento County.

Slavensky ready to defeat MAGA incumbent Josh HooverSACRAMENTO, CA—Today, even as primary results continue to be reported, it is confirmed that educator Amy Slavensky will face incumbent Assemblymember Josh Hoover in November for the competitive race for Assembly District 7.

Democratic voter registration surpasses Republicans by over 5%, with higher than average turnout expected among Democrats. Voters also have a growing awareness of how Assemblymember Josh Hoover has failed to show up for his district, especially on healthcare, education, and affordability.&nbsp;“It’s clear that voters in District 7 are ready for somebody who will show up for them, not more of the status quo,” said Amy Slavensky, candidate for Assembly District 7. “Unlike my opponent, I am not a seasoned politician. I am an educator and public servant who knows what it means to advocate and deliver for families in my community. From health care to education to affordability, I know that we can do better, and I am ready to be the champion District 7 deserves in Sacramento.”&nbsp;Amy began as a teacher and rose through the ranks to lead as superintendent in nearby Amador County Unified School District and deputy superintendent in San Juan Unified School District. Over her 40-year career, she tackled multi-million dollar budget deficits, and led schools through the COVID-19 pandemic, all while adapting to changes to state education policies.&nbsp;Amy has been endorsed by State Assembly Speaker Rivas and many<a href="https://www.amyslavensky.com/endorsements"> important labor groups</a>, including the Sacramento Central Labor Council, the California Teachers Association, the California School Employees Association, Service Employees International Union, Plumbers &amp; Pipefitters Local 447, Teamsters and more. She also has strong support from a growing list of advocacy groups, including Equality California, Planned Parenthood Advocates Mar Monte, and many&nbsp; community leaders and organizations.&nbsp;California’s 7th Assembly district is located in Sacramento County.

SACRAMENTO, CA—Today, the California Federation of Labor Unions and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) announced their endorsements of Amy Slavensky for Assembly. These latest endorsements round out labor <a href="https://www.amyslavensky.com/endorsements">support</a> from several leading labor organizations in California, including: Service Employees International Union (SEIU), United Domestic Workers (UDW), California Teachers Association (CTA), California Faculty Association (CFA), California School Employees Association (CSEA), and California Federation of Teachers (CFT).&nbsp; "We are proud to endorse Amy Slavensky for Assembly District 7 because she knows through her years as an educator what working families are facing," said Lorena Gonzalez, president of the California Federation of Labor Unions. "Our 2.3 million members working in fields like education, construction, and healthcare are the backbone of California's economy, and we know that Amy is on their side and ready to fight for them in the Assembly."

"The reality for many of our members is that healthcare is unaffordable, wages can't keep up with inflation, and retirement is out of reach for millions. It's never been more important to have somebody like Amy elected and ready to make real policy change based on genuine care and compassion for her community. These key labor endorsements not only bolster Amy’s campaign but prove that District 7, a swing district represented by Democratic Assemblymember Ken Cooley until 2022, could be poised to swing back to Democratic control in 2026.&nbsp; California’s 7th Assembly district is located in Sacramento County.
