This morning, I hosted a pet community event in partnership with Paws For Life K9 Rescue and LA Animal Services hosted at the Pet and People Community Innovation Center in #MissionHills.
More than a 100+ community members had the opportunity to get their dogs registered and microchipped, and receive a free dog collar, engraved tags, and dog treats.

Microchipping is a valuable resource for our community members and helps pet owners trace their fur friends if they are ever lost or reported missing.

Thank you to the Paws 4 Life K9 Rescue Center for their strong dedication towards providing a wide range of pet community events and services annually including: regular pet training, service dog training, first responder dog training, and pet adoption.

A special thank you to all the dedicated partners for making today possible! #AD43

I was happy to join the Northeast Valley Solar Panel Workshop hosted by the Los Angeles Business Council and Los Angeles Department of Water & Power.

As Chair of the Assembly Committee on Natural Resources, I am proud to support Los Angeles Department of Water & Power’s (LADWP) Feed-in Tariff Pilot and Net Energy Metering programs that empower property owners to invest in sustainable energy programs that provide clean air in our environmental justice communities. Switching to solar power helps to boost the state of air quality in our region and brings several benefits to our community members.

Thank you to LADWP, Los Angeles Business Council, Pacoima Beautiful, PCS Energy, Wells Fargo and all dedicated partners for sharing this great opportunity in #AD43.

Since taking office, I have prioritized investment in neighborhood infrastructure improvements like pedestrian crosswalk upgrades and repairing damaged streets.

Working with the City of Los Angeles Bureau of Street Services, we have resurfaced or repaired severely deteriorated streets across the Seventh Council District.

Near San Jose St. Elementary School, additional safety improvements were made to prioritize and resurface portions of Saloma Ave., Clymer St., Kester Ave., and San Jose St. because keeping our community safe is essential. The sections repaired were uneven, had cracks in the asphalt, and were a danger to parents and students accessing the city streets.

For more information on these improvements and upcoming projects in the district, please visit the Street LA website at https://streetsla.lacity.org/ and select ‘Road Repair.’

The Los Angeles City Council has voted to designate Juneteenth as an official city holiday. I supported this legislation because Juneteenth is a day to remember.
Let us mark this moment with continued reflection and work towards systemic change that delivers on the promise of liberty and justice for all.

All fireworks are illegal in Los Angeles and pose a public safety threat. The loud sounds traumatize our family pets, wildlife, and veterans with PTSD. After launching two successful firework buyback programs that resulted in the collection of over a 1/2 ton of fireworks being turned in, we are hosting a Third Anonymous Fireworks Buyback Program.
This year, we can remove even more illegal fireworks to reduce the risk of injury or fire in our communities.
Turn in illegal fireworks and receive a gift card while supplies last.
