The celebration continues! 🇲🇽🎉

I was proud to join Councilmember Imelda Padilla at City Hall for this year’s El Grito! For more than two centuries, El Grito has marked the beginning of Mexico’s fight for independence. Here in Los Angeles, it has become a tradition all its own, bringing the spirit of Mexico to City Hall year after year.

This year’s El Grito was one to remember, and next year, we’re doing it the CD7 way. Stay tuned!

¡La celebración continúa! 🇲🇽🎉

Me dio mucho gusto acompañar a Councilmember Imelda Padilla en el Ayuntamiento de Los Angeles para celebrar El Grito de este año. Desde hace más de dos siglos, El Grito marca el inicio de la lucha de México por su independencia. Aquí en Los Angeles, se ha convertido en una tradición propia, llevando el espíritu de México al Ayuntamiento año tras año.

El Grito de este año fue inolvidable y el próximo año lo vamos a celebrar al estilo del CD7. ¡Estén pendientes!

🌱 There’s so much growing right here in CD7! I recently stopped by the Theodore Payne Foundation in Sun Valley to learn more about their work connecting Angelenos with California native plants.

With 22 acres of gardens, trails, a native plant nursery, and educational spaces, it’s a pretty special place to have in our district. Check them out!

Los Angeles leads, and others are rightly following suit.

When I led the charge to make LA the first city in the nation to legally ban ALL city employees from moonlighting with federal immigration enforcement, the goal was clear: while the federal government continues to betray public trust, cities should be the guardians.

Now, cities like Santa Ana are taking key steps to follow our lead by advancing their own local bans.

Los Angeles will continue to be the tip of the spear in standing up for our immigrant families and building a blueprint for effective local resistance across the nation.
