Mayor Garcetti to Speak at MoveLA Transportation Conversation

Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti will be the keynote speaker at Move LA’s 7th Annual Transportation Conversation on April 22 at Union Station. Mayor Garcetti has an ambitious transportation and greenhouse gas reduction agenda, and we can’t wait to hear this important dialogue about what another transportation sales tax measure could help achieve in LA County.

Anticipation is building that a measure will be placed on the November 2016 ballot, a presidential election year. California Senate President Pro Tem Kevin De Leon (D-Los Angeles) has already introduced the authorizing legislation.
