To the editor: In gentle of the information that L.A. County Supervisor Hilda Solis intends to run for Congress ought to California create a brand new district, it is very important spotlight a critical concern (“L.A. may land a new congressional seat. Is it already reserved?,” Aug. 21).
Solis has a distinguished profession of public service on the native, state and federal ranges, and I like her many achievements. On the identical time, she now has her identify on a variety of taxpayer-funded amenities throughout L.A. County: two faculties in East L.A., a park in Baldwin Park, the brand new Hilda L. Solis Aquatic Heart in West Puente Valley and even the Hilda L. Solis Care First Village for folks experiencing homelessness.
The faculties, park, pool and housing growth are group sources meant to serve residents, to not promote the political model of anyone official. If Solis is contemplating one other run for workplace, it might be time for her to take away her identify from these amenities and take away the incumbency benefit that echoes the Donald Trump model of branding all the pieces together with his identify.
