LOS ANGELES - Mayor Karen Bass today issued the following statement:

"Councilman Alatorre was an icon in Los Angeles who blazed the trail for generations of Latino leaders in Los Angeles and California. His fervent advocacy served as a beacon of hope for millions and his dedicated advocacy has resulted in a legacy that will benefit millions more in the years to come. I had the honor of knowing the Councilman and the great benefit of receiving his counsel and guidance based on his prolific experience. My thoughts are with his family on this sad day and with the so many Angelenos whose lives were made better from his service."
