Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas and a group of Los Angeles County Democratic legislators will try Thursday to turn opposition to the Trump administration’s efforts against illegal immigration into support for Proposition 50, the congressional redistricting measure on the Nov. 4 ballot.
The legislators will be at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College south of downtown Los Angeles to “call for Angelenos to vote yes on Proposition 50 and stop Trump’s attacks on LA’s immigrants and economy,” according to an advisory from Rivas’ office.
Rivas, D-Hollister, is expected to be joined by Assemblymembers Lisa Calderon, D-Whittier; Jessica Caloza, D-East Los Angeles; Juan Carrillo, D-Palmdale; Sade Elhawary, D-South Los Angeles; Mike Fong, D-Alhambra; John Harabedian, D-Pasadena; Tina McKinnor, D-Ingle
