Dear friend,

Last night, the world watched as Mayor Anne Hidalgo, the first woman to ever serve as Mayor of Paris, passed the Olympic flag to Mayor Karen Bass, the first woman to ever serve as Mayor of Los Angeles.

The moment also marked Mayor Bass becoming the first Black woman Mayor to ever receive the Olympic flag during a closing Olympic Ceremony. And to make it even more meaningful, Mayor Bass was joined by Simone Biles, the greatest Olympic gymnast of all time.

Mayor Bass hopes that the ceremony sends a message to girls around the world that no matter where they are from, they can live out their dreams — they can run for gold and they can run for office.

The ceremony marked the close of the Paris games and started the official countdown to the 2028 games in LA. But Mayor Bass has already been working hard to drive changes that are making life better in LA right now:

*
Thousands
more
people
moved
from
the
streets,
resulting
in
the
first
decline
in
homelessness
in
years
*
A
new,
comprehensive
public
safety
strategy
to
keep
Angelenos
safe
through
enforcement
and
prevention
*
Tens
of
thousands
of
affordable
housing
units
expedited
—
more
than
ever
before
*
Increasing
safety
and
cleanliness
on
Metro
to
grow
ridership
back
to
pre-pandemic
levels;
Metro
just
surpassed
Chicago's
to
become
the
second-busiest
transit
system
in
the
nation
