Gloria Molina was first elected to office in 1982 as State Assemblywoman. In 1987, she was elected to the LA City Council where she served until 1991 when she was elected to the LA County Board of Supervisors. Molina is the first Latina in history to be elected to the California State Legislature, the Los Angeles City Council, and the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors. She counts as one of her significant achievements, her involvement with the Mothers of East Los Angeles, a group formed to organize against a proposed plan to build a prison in East LA.
