Today, we’re bringing you a conversation with Senator Lena Gonzalez, Senate Majority Leader and Chair of the California Latino Legislative Caucus. She represents over one million residents in California’s 33rd Senate District, which includes Southeast Los Angeles, Long Beach, and Catalina Island. She shares how her upbringing shaped her commitment to public service and how she’s fighting for immigrant rights, environmental justice, and community dignity. A reminder that there are real champions in our government working for us every day.
