Federal lawmaker campaigns door-to-door for Redlands school board candidate, highlighting stakes in local education
MENTONE, Calif. – A group of about 30 supporters gathered outside the A&W in Mentone on Saturday morning to canvas for Redlands Unified School District candidate Valerie Taber. Among them were U.S. Rep. Pete Aguilar and his wife, Alisha, who joined volunteers in one of the final pushes before the Nov. 5 election.
The former Redlands mayor, who has canvassed for school board members before, emphasized the high stakes of this particular race.
