Civic Engagement

There are only 10 more days until the Special Election on May 19th. (http://www.lavote.net/)

The cities of El Monte, South El Monte, and Rosemead, among other cities, are in the 32nd Congressional Distiric, have a vacant congressional seat since Congresswoman Solis was confirmed to serve as our now Secretary of Labor under the Obama Administration.

There are 12 candidates vying for the seat in Congress. If you would like to get a hands on experience on grass-roots campaignsand politics I highly recommend getting involved with on of the campaigns.

I've personally have volunteered and worked in campaigns since my days at USC (http://www.usc.edu/) and have found all my experiences invaluable. You get to work for a candidate and or issues that you are passionate about....meet like-minded folks, get campaign literature for free, and free food! You also get to make great connections and put your volunteer time on your resume! So if you are interested please contact the candidate best suited for you!

Happy politiking :-)
