(COACHELLA, CA) — Assemblymember Eduardo Garcia (right) (D-Coachella) 56th District leads the California State Assembly delegation of legislators to the inauguration of Mexican President-elect Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (left).

The California State Assembly holds a productive working relationship with its southern neighbor and hopes this trip will enhance these ties and build a successful partnership with the incoming administration which will maintain power for the next six years.

Garcia, whose district directly spans the Mexicali border, understands the all too real impacts of border relations to the environmental, public health and economic prosperity of California communities and looks forward to furthering these binational policy conversations.

“California and Mexican relations significantly impact issues of public health, water, the environment, and our economy; real issues that affect the everyday lives of families like mine growing up along the border,” stated Garcia.

“Our economies are intertwined. We need to be talking about border infrastructure investments to improve commerce and ports of entree.
