“Celeste Rodriguez was officially sworn in today as the State Assemblymember for California’s 43rd Assembly District, which includes the City of San Fernando and communities across the Northeast San Fernando Valley, including Arleta, Sun Valley, Sylmar, Pacoima, Panorama City, North Hollywood, Valley Glen, Lake View Terrace, Mission Hills and North Hills.”
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congresswoman Luz Rivas (CA-29) was sworn in as the newest Representative and first-ever Latina to represent California’s 29th Congressional District, home to over 750,000 people in the San Fernando Valley.
“Today, I proudly took my oath to represent the community that gave my mother, my sister, and me the chance to live our American Dream,” said Congresswoman Rivas. “I would not be here if it were not for my constituents for entrusting me – a proud lifelong daughter of the San Fernando Valley – with the responsibility to fight for them and their hopes in Washington, D.C. Just as I did in the California State Assembly, I will work with my House Democratic Caucus colleagues to uplift working families, protect critical social safety net programs from being cut, and tackle the threat of climate change so future generations can thrive.”
