Jimmy Gomez: “The revitalization of the Los Angeles River has been one of my top priorities.”

Young people today face challenges that would have been hard to imagine a generation ago, and we have a responsibility to ensure their needs remain front and center.

I take full responsibility and have committed myself to working through the pain privately with my wife and family.

I have and continue to sincerely apologize to my family, friends, and the people that I have the privilege to serve.

As I said when the existence of an inquiry was first reported two months ago in the media, years ago, I made personal mistakes outside my marriage.
