Michi Sanchez
Not a politician adopting issues for votes—an activist running for office to enact change.
Born to Fight for Change
I was born in Los Angeles to immigrant parents from Nicaragua and El Salvador. My mother fled Nicaragua's U.S.-funded civil war as one of 11 children. Her journey taught me that the systems we fight against today are the same ones that displaced my family generations ago.
I'm not your typical candidate. I'm a Christian, a mother, a gamer, and an activist. I believe in normalizing therapy and mental health care. I've overcome significant adversity—fought against DFCS and regained custody of my children, giving me firsthand insight into the destructive impact of family separation.
I've spent over a decade in the trenches of political organizing—not from a corner office, but from community centers, phone banks, and front porches across Georgia. I know what it takes to win because I've helped others win.
This Isn't Political Ambition—
It's Spiritual Obedience
July 7, 2007 (7/7/07)
My mother collapsed from kidney failure and flatlined three times. I was an atheist then, but in that hospital, I prayed: “If you save my mom, I will never doubt you again.”
After 2 months on life support, against all medical odds, she survived. That miracle converted me from atheism to Christianity. The number 777 has followed me throughout life as a reminder of God's presence.

On Thanksgiving morning at 4 AM, I experienced a divine calling to run for Congress. The campaign launched at 7:00 AM—the triple 7s returning as divine confirmation.
The Hayley Connection
My daughter Hayley and I used to sing worship songs together—“Hosanna” by Hillsong United and “Usable” by Victory Worship—songs about God using ordinary people for extraordinary purposes. Songs about a generation rising up with selfless faith.
We didn't know we were singing prophecy over our lives. Years later, after losing Hayley to mental health system failures, I heard those same worship songs during the 4 AM calling. The little girl who believed God could use her mama was right.
Every policy I fight for—foster care reform, mental health care, food safety, protecting children—I fight for Hayley and every child whose family has been failed by broken systems.

Both Parties Have Failed Us
“Both parties are two wings of the same bird leading us to destruction.”
Republicans incite violence. Democrats fundraise off it but fail to stop it. Both profit from keeping you scared. Neither party truly represents working families—they represent corporate donors and special interests.
I'm not defending either party; that's why I'm INDEPENDENT. I evaluate candidates by their ACTIONS, not their party affiliations. I refuse to be a rubber stamp for any political machine.
“I'm not a politician adopting issues for votes. I'm an activist running for office to enact change.”
Purple represents independence—a blend of red and blue, but beholden to neither.
