Obama For President? L.A. Already Has One…

There is a President in Los Angeles, and his name is Eric Garcetti. He is the President of the Los Angeles City Council.

The Los Angeles Daily News recently reported on Councilmember Garcetti’s first year of presiding over the City Council. The main public policy and social issues that the Council has tackled are:

- Policies regarding Downtown Skid Row and the Homeless
- Affordable Housing
- Living Wages
- Public Safety Programs

It is an impressive list of activities. Although sometimes they are overshadowed by our Mayor’s priority list, the Los Angeles City Council—led by Council Member Garcetti—are addressing social issues that are certainly a priority.
