Blog Post #2: Curfew

Representative: Maria D. Quinones-Sanchez
Maria is a very outstanding women in my point of view. She was born on November 21st in Philadelphia, PA. The 7th district is represented by her and what she does. She's been in office since 2008 and will stay in office until 2012. Out of the office she is a wife and a mother with two kids. In the November 6th election of 2007 she had a whopping number of votes with 80% of them. Out of all of the district representatives, Maria is the youngest one. Not only known for the reduced crime rates by her but also the increase in the economic opportunity, she has accomplished amazing achievements.

When the whole "Curfew law" was being put into action, Maria was all in for it. She wasn't going to fight against it because she knew this would help not only in the city but also around the 7th district as well. Even though I don't agree with her and the whole curfew, I do believe she is doing it for the right reason. Maria and I are similar in different ways, for example we're both Latinos and making a different in the world. I say that we're both making a difference in the world because when she's doing work around the city, I am as well with my community service.
