A graduate of our UCLA Lab School, Eric Garcetti represents Council District 13. More than a quarter million people reside in the most diverse jurisdiction in Los Angeles and 60 percent of them are foreign born — speaking more than 100 languages across the district’s neighborhoods. Forty percent of children in Council District 13 live in poverty and more than 60 percent of residents have no high school diploma.
