LOS ANGELES, CA – Councilwoman Monica Rodriguez issued the following statement following this morning’s plane crash at Whiteman Airport:
“This morning’s plane crash at Whiteman Airport reminds us of the definition of insanity—doing
the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. It’s shameful that the County has taken no meaningful action to protect our community after these repeated accidents
which threaten our community’s safety.
“I am thankful to the first responders who acted quickly and relieved that the pilot was safely
extricated. I will continue to monitor this situation closely and continue to fight for accountability
and the safety of Pacoima residents.”
