Lucy Flores is an American politician from the state of Nevada. She was a member of the Nevada State Assembly, representing the 28th district in the northeast Las Vegas Valley covering Sunrise Manor West. She is a member of the Democratic Party.
==Personal life and education==
Flores was born in Los Angeles, California, but her family moved to Northeast Las Vegas shortly after Flores was born.〔 Flores was one of thirteen children.〔 Only one brother graduated high school, and all of her sisters became pregnant in their teens. Flores's mother left her family when she was nine, and Flores's father worked multiple jobs, so Flores had to care for her younger siblings. After her mother left, Flores's school performance suffered, and she looked to local gang members for role models. She became involved with the local gangs, and spent months in juvenile detention after stealing a car. Leslie Camp, Flores's parole officer, became an important role model for Flores, and helped Flores turn her life around. Flores's difficult early life informs her political views, and she advocates job retraining and educational opportunities to help other people who came from difficult backgrounds.〔
Flores dropped out of Rancho High School,〔 but passed the GED test. After working as a receptionist and office manager, Flores started attending community college. She transferred to and graduated from the University of Southern California, and earned a JD from University of Nevada, Las Vegas in 2010.〔 While at UNLV, Flores pushed the school to create a course dedicated to investigating potential wrongful convictions. Her hobbies include running and singing.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.leg.state.nv.us/App/Legislator/A/Assembly/Current/28 )〕 A fan of medical dramas, one of Flores's favorite television shows is ''Grey's Anatomy''.
In 2013, while explaining why she supported a sex education bill, Flores stated that she had had an abortion when she was 16. Flores would later receive death threats for saying that she had an abortion.
