The Trump Wave stopped short at the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Governor Jerry Brown and California Democrats are in full rebellion against the Conservative restoration sweeping America. But liberty is far from dead in the once-Golden State. How do we revive it?

Come hear from some of California's Conservative leaders who have some ideas!

KIMBERLIN BROWN

Kimberlin Brown is a true renaissance woman. Best know as popular villainess Sheila Carter on CBS’s multi award winning international soap operas, “The Young and the Restless” and “The Bold and the Beautiful,” she is now a successful business woman and passionate political activist.

Kimberlin also had long term rolls on daytime’s “Port Charles,” “One Life To Live” and most recently on “All My Children.”

Most recently Kimberlin has engaged in yet another passion, political activism. As a proud American and Republican, she was a prime time featured speaker at the Republican Convention in Ohio following Dr. Ben Carson. She fervently spoke about small business and women in business. She is a member of California Business Women for Trump.

“I feel the need to speak out publicly for my children and their future. We’re expected to leave a better America to our youth as was left to us.”

Kimberlin enjoys skiing, boating, golfing, shooting, gardening and most importantly, spending time with family. She spends her free time actively involved in charity work including The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and Susan G. Komen Foundation through American Airlines Celebrity Events and The Blue Angels Foundation benefiting wounded warriors. Most notably and demonstrating her true hands on spirit, she has twice been a bone marrow donor. She has never met either recipient but has been told they are both doing well.

Kimberlin, a California native, lives with her family in San Diego, CA.
