ADA SoCal Endorses John Yi Born in LA’s Koreatown, where my parents immigrated from South Korea in the 1970s, I have been a nonprofit advocate fighting for policies that impact our families, immigrants, public health, and the environment. I was the Executive Director of Los Angeles Walks, where I worked with promotoras and the community to improve sidewalk and pedestrian infrastructure. My nonprofit work also includes organizing for more stringent tail-pipe emission standards, repealing CA’s discriminatory jaywalking law, fighting for LA Metro Transit Ambassadors, and pushing for $1.75 million in annual CDC funding for children with Tourette Syndrome. I decided to run for office after seeing what many of our seniors in District 54 are experiencing. With my own grandfather, we were unable to find affordable senior housing. The lack of safe public recreation spaces, especially for lonely seniors, made the local McDonald’s the only place to socialize. Fast traffic is killing our elders at shocking rates. If we serve our seniors, we serve all. I graduated with my BA from the University of Michigan (Go Blue!) and I went to graduate school at Georgetown University, where I received my MA. I live with my husband, David, and our rescue poodle-mix, Wilshire.
