25 years later, we continue to remember the lives lost and the families whose lives were forever changed.

As the daughter of a proud LAFD firefighter, I know the courage and sacrifice that comes with this calling. I’m deeply grateful to all who serve and to the families who stand behind them. May we always remember.

Community reports continue to help Team MRod take action in response to stolen and vandalized vehicles in CD7. Thanks to weekly community drives and constituent calls, we recently identified two abandoned vehicles in Pacoima and Tujunga and worked with LAPD and LADOT to quickly address them.

📞 To report an abandoned vehicle, call 1-800-ABANDON (1-800-222-6366) or report it online at LADOT. To report criminal activity, contact LAPD Foothill Division at (818) 756-8866 or LAPD Mission Division at (818) 838-9860.

Together, we can keep our neighborhoods clean and safe!

Happy Labor Day! Today we honor the American labor movement and the lasting impact it has had on workers and working families across our nation.

We also recognize the hard work, dedication, and contributions of workers everywhere, especially right here in Los Angeles.

A special thank you to our incredible City workforce, whose work keeps LA safe, clean, and running every day. 🙌

Happy Birthday, Los Angeles! 🎉❤️

From the parks where families make memories, to the local restaurants that bring people together, to the venues and special places that make our communities unique, LA is filled with places that tell a story.

Here’s to the places, people, and moments that make LA home. Happy Birthday, LA!

I had a wonderful time in Tujunga connecting with Father Avedis and Youth Advisor Nare at Holy Apostles Armenian Apostolic Church last week.

Building stronger communities starts with empowering our youth, and I’m excited to create even more meaningful opportunities for them to serve and make a difference in our neighborhood.

Together, we’re putting community relationships first and investing in the next generation of leaders!

It was a pleasure meeting with parents, school administrators, teachers, and students at Our Lady of Lourdes School in Tujunga to discuss the importance of civic engagement and how local government works here in Los Angeles.

Engaging with our students and families, listening to their concerns, and building strong community partnerships are essential to creating a better future for our neighborhoods. Thank you to the Our Lady of Lourdes community for welcoming us and for your continued partnership!

Earlier this year, I introduced a resolution supporting AB 2319—legislation to establish California’s first standalone post-production tax credit—and the City Council unanimously voted to support it.

Now that the State Legislature has passed AB 2319, we have a critical opportunity to bring vital post-production jobs back to Los Angeles, creating real economic opportunities for our entertainment workers, local small businesses, and working families who depend on this industry.

I’m calling on Governor Newsom to sign AB 2319 into law, complete our state’s tax incentive landscape, and help keep these jobs in Los Angeles and California.

Today I officially became Chair of the City Council’s Arts, Parks & City Facilities Committee!

I’ve delivered new parks—including the City’s first “Dog Bark”—and modernized and upgraded nearly every single park in CD7 since taking office in 2017. Now I’m ready to build on that success citywide. Stay tuned!

Earlier this week, I joined Mayor Bass and LADWP officials in Sylmar to mark a historic water infrastructure milestone for our City.

CBS LA broke down what makes the Foothill Trunk Line project so monumental: we’re replacing 1930s pipelines with high-tech ductile iron pipe designed to bend rather than break during an earthquake.

With 4 miles complete on Foothill Boulevard and more than 67 miles installed citywide, we are building a safer, more resilient Los Angeles.

For more than three decades, Lalo Garcia has used his artistry to celebrate Mexican culture, faith, folklore, and tradition. From creating sacred works for the Los Angeles Archdiocese and designing vestments for Pope John Paul II, to sharing Mexican folkloric dance across the U.S. and Mexico, Lalo’s work has touched countless communities.

I am proud to honor Lalo Garcia for his extraordinary artistic legacy and his lasting contributions to culture, faith, and the arts. ¡Felicidades, Lalo! 🎨

As construction officially gets underway on the East San Fernando Valley Light Rail Transit Project, I’m making sure our Northeast Valley neighborhoods receive the same high-quality investments other parts of the City have gotten for generations.

I’m specifically working directly with Metro to ensure this historic investment puts our communities first by establishing:

✅ Undergrounding of LADWP utilities
✅ A Community Leadership Council for direct local input
✅ A Business Interruption Fund to protect small businesses
✅ Updated zoning to prioritize affordable housing along the corridor

Stay tuned as we responsibly transform commutes in the Northeast Valley! ... See MoreSee Less
