LA Metro Honors Sen. Boxer
Representatives of Los Angeles Metro presented Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) with an award Aug. 24 in recognition of her role in helping the agency secure a $546 million TIFIA loan to jumpstart construction of the 8.5-mile Crenshaw/LAX light rail line currently under construction. During her visit to the Metro Green Line’s Aviation Station, which will connect to the new line, Boxer joined LA Metro employees along with Chief Executive Officer Phillip Washington, far left; Mark Ridley-Thomas, Los Angeles County supervisor and Metro board member, second from left; and Metro Board Chair John Fasana, far right. The text of the plaque states: "Metro deeply appreciates U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer for her relentless work in bringing billions of dollars of federal transportation funds to LA County. We are on the move--thanks to Sen. Boxer."
