Endorsement: Send Christy Smith to Congress (via latimesopinion)
in Santa Clarita and Simi and Antelope valleys to choose Democratic Assemblywoman Christy Smith to replace Rep. Katie Hill in the 25th Congressional District in the March primary.
Months later, when the special election to fill Hill’s unexpired term went to a runoff, we endorsed Smith again over Republican Mike Garcia, a former Navy pilot and Raytheon executive with no political experience, extremely conservative views and no real platform of his own.
Here’s one example. This year, when state lawmakers were forced to cull their proposals because the pandemic had truncated the legislative session, Smith— a bill focused on improving evacuation plans for vulnerable populations, such as residents in skilled nursing facilities, during disasters. Not sexy, but necessary — and supported by both Democrats and Republicans.
