FORMER U.S. COMMERCE SECRETARY MICKEY KANTOR ENDORSES HAHN

Former U.S. Secretary of Commerce Mickey Kantor announced his endorsement of Jim Hahn for Mayor of Los Angeles today.

"Jim Hahn's experience and deep commitment to the people of Los Angeles make him the best candidate for mayor," said Kantor. "He is a proven leader who can make real progress on the issues that residents care about – from education to crime to transportation."

"Jim understands the city's unique economic position and has proposed a comprehensive plan to spur economic development, create jobs and spread the benefits to all people and neighborhoods of Los Angeles."

"Mickey Kantor understands what it takes to keep our regional economy moving forward and I am truly honored to have his support," said Hahn.

In 1996, Mickey Kantor was confirmed as the U.S. Secretary of Commerce after serving as the United States Trade Representative for three years in the first Clinton administration cabinet. Kantor was a member of the Independent Commission chaired by Warren Christopher that proposed significant reforms to the Los Angeles Police Department following the Rodney King incident and was the founder and first chairperson of the Los Angeles Conservation Corps
