Through struggle and discipline, persistence and faith, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. helped move this country forward. As we honor his legacy today, let’s remember the lesson he taught us: that even in the face of impossible odds, people who love this country can help change it. In honor of #MLKDay, I hope you’ll do what you can in your community to create a better future for us all.

Scripture says: “I have been young and now I’m old yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken.”
After all these years serving you, the American people, I have not seen the righteous forsaken.
I love you all.
May you keep the faith.
And may God bless you all.

As @CalEPASecretary Yana Garcia explains, California is moving into Phase I debris removal inside the #EatonFire perimeter where it's safe for cleanup crews to proceed.
Together, we will restore livelihoods and make sure we're better protected against future disasters.
Residents, community & faith leaders, public safety partners and elected officials gathered at Nickerson Gardens Public Housing Community to honor those who lost their lives by the Eaton & Palisades fires, incl. Mr. Rodney Nickerson — the grandson of the Gardens’ namesake.
Tuesday night, HACLA CEO @LCastroRamirez joined the Watts Gang Task Force, Nickerson Gardens, & @TimMcOskerLA at a vigil honoring those affected by recent fires. A special tribute was made to Rodney Nickerson & William Nickerson Jr.'s legacy. 🕯

Best start to 2025… reaffirming our commitment to end veteran homelessness in Los Angeles by calling on property owners to join us in housing veterans.
Thanks @MayorOfLA @SecVetAffairs and our public and private sector partners.
Let’s keep the momentum to end homelessness.
After years of increases nationally, we’re bucking the trend and bringing homelessness down in LA.
Today, we announced a new initiative bringing together property owners, landlords, federal partners and more to bring homeless Vets inside.
