The 49-year-old recently spoke to PEOPLE about her dwindling acting career, and how her political views contributed to it.
"I've been blacklisted in Hollywood. My agency dropped me because of my politics. They told me that when they pitched me, casting directors would say, 'We give you credit for pitching her with a straight face.' It makes me so angry. Republicans in Hollywood hide. I'm challenging them to stand up and have courage. I won't be scared into submission."
According to her Wikipedia page, her acting roles significantly decreased after 2008. Since then, she has only had 7 film roles, none of which were blockbuster movies (the last big movie she was in was in 2007's "I Could Never Be Your Woman.") When it comes to TV roles, she has had roles here and there. Her last TV role was in a TV movie called "Cloudy With a Chance of Love."
Her future, however, doesn't appear to be role-free. Dash has expressed interest in running for president one day.
"I'm going to run for president one day. I had a dream about 15 years ago that I was siting on the lawn of the White House, having a picnic with my family. That's what I'm going for."
