In 1976, when she was a Democrat, she joined with her fiance in the pro-life movement, working also on the campaign of Jimmy Carter. During his presidency, she was disappointed with his approach and therefore contributed in 1980 to the campaign of Ronald Reagan, becoming more and more involved in politics, for example protesting against the construction of a hospital in 1991 where abortions were performed. In 1993, she started her own school in protest against the educational standards imposed by the state.
