Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti is endorsing Joe Biden, the Biden campaign announced
In a statement, Garcetti described Biden as a"a close personal friend" who"has been an incredible partner in delivering progress for L.A.""He came to L.A. and stood shoulder to shoulder with me to make us the first big city to enact a $15 minimum wage, and he brought leaders from all over the world to our city to forge the most sweeping climate agreement prior to the Paris accords," Garcetti said.
Garcetti -- whose grandfather migrated to the US from Mexico and opened his own barbershop -- is fluent in Spanish and could be a powerful surrogate for Biden in the Latino community as well as throughout populous Southern California. As Mayor of Los Angeles, Garcetti has frequently spoken out against what he views as the Trump administration's infringement of immigrant rights, heralding the message that all immigrants are welcome in LA.
