Great press conference today in celebration of the possibilities of light rail in the San Fernando Valley. I was so proud to stand with other Valley leaders who, with a shared vision and strong resolve, are working to bring our transit system into the 21st Century.
Today is one of those days that leaves you feeling confident in the ability of government to find solutions to everyday problems, and amazed at the extraordinary spirit of public service that so many of our fellow citizens exemplify. I want to extend my thanks to Councilmember Paul Krekorian, Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky, Glendale Councilmember Ara Najarian, Councilmember Bob Blumenfield and everyone who is working to make this potential upgrade to the Orange Line possible.
