Secession Bill Suffers Setback
Re “State Senate Kills Boland Bill on Valley Secession,” Aug. 23.
The recent failure of AB 2043 [the secession bill] is certainly a major setback to the Valley secession movement.
Upcoming elections could yield a more pro-democracy state Senate and Assembly.
It was a very close vote; two more people would have carried the measure.
Rest assured that the citizens of the San Fernando Valley will no longer lie down while the Los Angeles city government exploits us and neglects our needs and desires.
