It isn't all bad, as the pastor who made those statements has received a backlash from doing that.

A Change.org petition calling on Harris to apologize has amassed over 1,500 signatures.

Regan is also getting support from Angela Garcia, president of the Pasadena Educators Association.

I know there are many liberal areas that are expensive but maybe think about New Mexico because its a cheap blue state.
