During a hearing for Nevada's proposed AB 584 Educational Accountability Act last month, Juliette Leong of Reno told the Assembly Ways and Means Committee that she performs high school math, won six national math competitions, performed music at Carnegie Hall, and donated hundreds of thousands of dollars from the sales of her paintings to charities.

My beautiful, strong, crazy, badass wife!!!! I love my girl with everything that I am and could ever hope to be! She is our beacon, our rock, our strength. The girls and I are so very blessed! Our girls could not have a better role model in their lives as how to be an incredibly strong woman. And how to believe in themselves and be in charge of their lives (every aspect of their lives)! Let's honor the women in our lives with respect and make sure that we fight for their rights right alongside them!" Notably, Hill was also one of the handful of country artists who supported singer Chely Wright when she publicly came out in 2010.
