• 3:29
  Speaker 1: So I have the incredible honor of bringing on today's guest,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Elizabeth Alganzad. Welcome to look at to please introduce yourself
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: to our listeners. Absolutely, thank you for having me. So
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: my name is Elizabeth Altona. I currently serve as a
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: City of Katags mayor now for the second time. UM
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: have served on as we council for the last four years.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: And I was introduced myself as an advocate and organizer
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: by heart and trade as well, because that's just my backgroundwork.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Incredible and so just to you know, get us started
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: and diving into your background. You were the when you
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: were elected as mayor of kind of hey, you were
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: the youngest and first Latina to be elected back then
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: in so why did you run back then and why
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: are you running now? Sure? So when I was elected,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: I was twenty five years old onto the Karai City Council.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: I was the first Latina elected since the year I
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: was born. Um, so before then we hadn't had someone
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: for twenty five years, which I think is well to
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: think about when we live in a community that is Latino,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: right and considering that and having that at the background, UM,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: that was definitely one of the factors that drove me
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: to run. It was a council of all five men,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: all Latinos, but when it comes down to what are
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: the issues that matter for our community, I think women
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: should also have to see that that table. And for me,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: it was looking at the council and wanting to lobby
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: them on certain issues and hearing back a note where
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: I really came to the realization that why am I
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: lobbying them instead I should be the one making those decisions.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: And so that's really what prompted me to run. I
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: decided at a council meeting when I was upset with
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: the with the vote UM. That's when I decided to run,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: and and I did. I'm very glad that I did
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: and put me on on this path now serving our
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: community UM on the Karda City Council. And so that's
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: essentially what also pushed me to run for Assembly UM.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: It's obviously a big step running from Kardah City Council
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: to State Assembly UM, but it's something that I've I've
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: already learned so much about UM and just in advocating
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: for our community. I think that when it comes down
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: to cut a hay into Southeast Los Angeles, right, because
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: it's not just cut of hay, it's bell it's Bellt Gardens,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: it's Downey goes all the way out to La habra Um.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: Our communities are more similar than than not. And I
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: think a lot of people think about Bell, Bell Gardens,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: kut of Hey, and they're like largely immigrants, largely low income,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: largely rent her It's so different than like Santa Fe
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Springs or Norwalk. But the reality is that we can
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: talk to folks over there. They feel very similarly. They
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: feel like they don't have the resources. They feel like
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: environmental issues are are prevalent, like education issues, job issues,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: and so that's what prompted me to run. I think
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: that despite being young and twenty eight, I have so
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: much experience already and a really strong, proven track record
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: of actually getting results for our people. Thank you, Elizabeth
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: for laying all that out. You know, we've noticed that
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: from AOC to you to Fernandez, there seems to be
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: this wave of young Latinas, progressive Latinas running for political
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: office across the country at different levels, and we're wondering
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: if you have thoughts about what is contributing to this, uh,
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: this rise in first time candidates or young candidates under forty,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: under thirty even running for political office. It is the
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: reason why we started our Latinas in Politics series here
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: at look at what our Radio, which is you know
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: why we're inviting you on the podcast today, And I
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: love to hear if you have any of your own
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: theories about what's kind of contributing to this. I mean,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: there's there's so many thoughts around this. One of them
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: is Frankly, and and you know, when we talk about
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: like young Latinos running for office, I don't think that
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: we think of an older white guy as being the inspiration.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: But Frankly, for me, one of those pieces was Bernie Sanders.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Um he's an old why heat all right? He deel Bernie,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: But I think hearing him talk about the issues that
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: a lot of us care about, Um, we're younger, the
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: generational divide is huge. But the reality is that a
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: lot of the issues he talked about our issues that
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: I care about. And I think that when we decided
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: to run as young Latinos, we start to talk about
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: those same issues right Onces is doing amazing work around
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: criminal justice reform and talking about those issues on the
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: campaign trail, which, frankly, I think many years ago it
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: would have been like political you know, torture to do
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: that and to talk about criminal justice reform. But the
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: reality is that as we as US millennials, and even
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: as gen Z comes into voting age, we get to
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: start talking about the issues that we care about. Um.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: And so even though years ago it would have been
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: dangerous to talk about those issues or you would have
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: been marked as unelectable, we're able to do that now.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: I think the other thing is that, frankly, yes, I'm young.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: I'm twenty eight. I'm going to be turning twenty nine
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: this year, but I'm not that young anymore either, like
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: I have experienced. I'm about to be thirty, I went
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: off to college, I've worked for many years now, um,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: I've worked for ten years in different spheres. And and frankly,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: I think a lot of us have worked multiple jobs
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: at the same time. So I would say our experiences
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: multiple and so I think that there's all these different
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: things that we have to consider. But the reality too
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: is that our life experiences have been so um I think,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: so like elevated and and so uh like marginalized that
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: we have to pay attention to them. I grew up
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: as a first Latina, first first generations, you know, in
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: our family, to go to college. Um, I'm the oldest
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: in our family from our my brothers and sisters, which
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: meant that I fell on me to translate documents, right,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: And that's a very common experience within our communities. But
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: that also meant that I was not just translating mail.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: I was translating the rent increases. I was translating my
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: dad's union contract. And those sort of things, whether you
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: want them to or not, they politicize you, and they
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: force you to think about what does rent control look like?
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: What does rent of protections look like? What does workers
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: protection look like? Why why is my dad fighting for
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: this union contract and it's not coming to his favor? Right? Um,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: it forces you to do that. And I remember being
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: a seven year old, eight year old fairly knowing any words,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: but you translate those documents, and so it starts to
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: politicize you. And and now I've had twenty plus years
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: of politization because of that. Thank you so much for
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: providing that background in context. I think so many of
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: our listeners can relate to like the first gen Latina experience. UM,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: and that definitely grounds you. And you know you talked
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: about rent control. But before we get into those topics,
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: I wanted to. I want to dive into your proven
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: track record. Right in early UM, in airplane made an
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: emergency landing at l a X and dumped fuel all
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: over Southeast Los Angeles, specifically your community, and it hit
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: a school where children were playing outside. It caused a
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: ton of health, complicated health issues. It was chaos, right,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: but you admitted immediately jumped to hold Delta Airlines accountable.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: So what are some steps that you took to advocate
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: for your community members, um? And and how has that
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: really set you up to take on the State Assembly now? Right?
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Thank you? UM? Yeah, So I just wanted to paint
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: the picture here. January seven is when I became mayor
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: January fourteen, so a week later is on Delta dumps
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: that fifteen thousand gallons of jet fuel on our community.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: And I also wanted to paint the picture of that
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: that the pilot was asked several times, three times before
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: he actually jettisoned and dropped the jet fuel over city,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: whether he should be jett sitting the fuel. UM. He
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: sub repeatedly said no. And when he did, it happened
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: to be over Bell Gardens. Kind of hate Bell Southgate. UM.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: Several other cities experienced as well, but our Park Avenue
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: Elementary School was the one that was most impacted. Kids
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: were outside in the playground and what happened. They felt
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: a drop of jet fuel onto their body. They look up,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: their mouths are obviously probably open, and so they also
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: fell into their mouths and fell into their eyes, into
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: their face. Um, and so additially they were told forty
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: eight hours and all the complications that irritations of skin rashes,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: frankly diarrhea will be gone. But the reality for our
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: families was that it was not gone for weeks. Um.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: So immediately one of those first pushes was a week
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: we cannot lie to our people. We were being asked
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: to say, forty eight hours, you'll be fine. Um. That
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: was part of my work and saying no, first off,
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: we don't have that information. I refuse to lose that
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: trust with our community. And I'm very glad that I did,
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: because when three days later we had our town hall,
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: people were still experiencing these symptoms and they looked to me,
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: is that thank you for being honest with us that
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: we don't know what the effects are, and thank you
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: for putting this town hall together. That was the other thing.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: It was the only town hall that Delta showed up at,
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: so it was the only one where people were able
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: to speak directly to Delta and say, this is how
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: you affected us. Because it wasn't just the skin irritations
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: and the irritations, it was also the backyard gardens that
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: people had count for years. Because we don't know the
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: effects of jet fuel after it's been burned, etcetera. They
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: had to throw all that away. People that were walking
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: in the community didn't feel safe. They look overhead and
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: they see the airplanes passing by every few minutes, frankly,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: and that saw comes back into your head. Frankly. It
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: wasn't until a few weeks ago that I could speak
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: about Delta and not and I'll start to tear up
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: because it was such a heavy topic for us UM
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: and advocating for our community meant really being strong and
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: meant counting all my friends, um, you know, my best
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: friend Kimberly, somebody good friends, Oscar and the and relying
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: on them and say, hey, I don't feel good about
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: what they're asking me to say what do you all think?
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: And then having my back I think was really helpful
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: to having a strong support system meant that I could
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: be the strong support system our communities too. It also
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: meant advocating for healthcare. We have a largely undocumented community,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: a largely immigrant community. That also means they're largely uninsured,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: and so we had to push on Delta to pay
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: for healthcare. We have to push on our community to
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: sign up for this and then to also go to
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: like our federally qualified healthcare clinics to get service. And
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: so there was a lot of moving pieces. Um, we
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: we moved them. I think that there's still more justice
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: to be served, but um, that's ongoing. Thank you for sharing, uh,
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: that background, in that back story into what it's like
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: as a person, not also not just as a politician
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: or someone who holds political office, because you live in
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: the community that you you work, you know, so that
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: personal side of things. I know that I appreciate hearing,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: and I know our listeners, many of whom definitely live
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: out there, UM in your community, also appreciate. And I'm wondering,
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: it's it's an election year, you're running two what is
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: it that you're prioritizing uh this time around in this campaign? Right?
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: And I think when it comes to talking about our record.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: That's that's one of those pieces. I am the candidate
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: that has the most regional advocacy experience, UM. And that
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: leads to our top three priorities, one of those being
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: environmental issues. We are a community that is largely impacted
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: environmental injustice UM to our north. We had to excite
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: for decades, pollitting our communities, and frankly, environmental justice advocates
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: were sounding the alarms for years and for all those
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: decades and largely ignored. UM. Very grateful that we had
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: then politicians also at the county level, supervisors at least
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: that really listened to these the kits and was able
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: to push with them many years back. UM. But we
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: still have several issues. We have highways, we have refineries,
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: we have rendering plants. Every single morning you wake up
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: and six in the morning, you're going to smell just
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: the terrible odor of animal carcass because rendering plants are
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: not following their rules UM. And so that's part of
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: the work that we do on the air Quality Management District, right,
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: and that's a regional advocacy work as well. UM. But
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: it also comes down to things like housing. We are
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: in a housing crisis and it's housing affordability, housing development,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: and homelessness crisis. And there's three different pockets of issues
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: that we have to target. It means ensuring that our
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: tenants and frank our homeowners that have mortgages are also protected.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: But then also um that we're developing housing and housing
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: that's affordable to our communities. I think I always different
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: shape between like capital ah affordable housing and housing that
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: is affordable, and that's really important to to note, um.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: And of course homeless this and addressing services and maasuring
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: that folks have access to housing that is again affordable
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: to them and that is actually helpful to them. UM.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: If we're building communities in these kind of home villages,
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: and we should also have resources there too. Um. And
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: in the last piece, of course, we want to make
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: sure that we have good quality jobs. That involves bringing
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: in our labor unions. It includes bringing in the environment
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: justice space and having them discussed like how do we
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: how do we get there where we have a healthy
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: environment and healthy home as well. Thank you so much
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: Lizz for all of that. You are definitely a candidate
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: for the people. You are a local girl, a local candidate.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: We support you one thousand percent. And just to highlight
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: some of the amazing endorsements that you've received. Um, you
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: are definitely the union candidate. You have been endorsed by
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: a ton of unions, You've been endorsed by the l
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: A Times CBE, and also a ton of local officials,
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: former and currently elected, and that obviously speaks to your
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: track record, to your values. So tell us a little
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: bit to wrap up about all these amazing endorsements and
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: really like what that means for you and for your community. Right.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: I think, frankly, when we first entered the race, I
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: was I was warned by a lot of people like, hey,
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: if you're not cutting it, you might want to think
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: about dropping out. And I think part of it is
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: because folks didn't take us seriously at first. You twenty
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: eight year from kind of hey, you're for almost a
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: small city. What do you have in this game? Right? Um?
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: But what we have is people power. What we have
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: is relationships. What we have is a record of organizing
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: in our community. And that's where these endorsements came from. Right.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: I've been on picket lines with workers for many years,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: whether it's glocery workers or teachers or portrait drivers. Etcetera.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: And part of that work is because of the issues
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: that I frankly very much care about personally for my community.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: Every decision that I make, I think about our community
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: and like, can I justify the US to my neighbor?
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: Can I justify this to this one resident that is
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: very vocal about a certain issue. And that's how for me,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: it really humanizes every single issue. It's not just policy
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: on people, but it's a real thing that's going to
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: affect our communities. UM. And that's also why I've earned
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: so much support from our labor unions, from our environmental
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: justice ativocates from the l A Times most recently UM
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: and of course pushing for more support. That's what's going
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: to get folks out on the door. And so of
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: course we always welcome volunteers to knock on doors with us,
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: to make phone calls to tell our neighbors about this campaign.
• 18:37
