Since the 2016 session, she has been on the Health and Government Operations Committee, where she focuses on reproductive health and mental health issues.

Recently, she has done workers compensation pre-litigation work at a Montgomery County law firm.

From canvassing black neighborhoods to raise awareness about jury participation in Louisiana, to contributing to the international legal framework around discrimination and excessive force against afro-Latinos, Ms. Morales is constantly fighting to reinforce the basic human and constitutional right to   equality under the law.

Ms. Morales has a J.D. from the University of Maryland, School of Law, where she served as a member of the International Law Moot Court Team. She also has a Master’s in Public Policy and a Bachelor’s in Global Affairs and French from George Mason University.
