Bass, a Democratic congresswoman since 2011, was an early supporter of Obama’s 2008 presidential run, campaigning for him in 2007 when she was a member of the state Assembly.
“I am humbled and honored to have the support of President Barack Obama,” Bass said. “President Obama brought us faith in our government and hope for the future of our country. It is impossible to overstate the impact of his work leading this country for eight scandal-free years advancing social and economic justice had on the nation and the world. That impact became even more obvious when it was followed by four years of corruption and crime emanating from the Oval Office.
Peter Ragone, spokesman for developer Rick Caruso, Bass’ opponent in the Nov. 8 election, said: “This election is about fixing homelessness, preventing crime, and ending corruption at City Hall. Only one candidate had a track record of taking on the status quo and getting results.” Bass has received the endorsement of most state and local Democratic politicians as well as President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, while Caruso has been backed by former Mayor Richard Riordan, business groups including the Los Angeles County Business Federation, and the Los Angeles Police Protective League.
