Following the county Board of Supervisors and City Hall actions to rename Grand Park in honor of her legacy, the Metro Board of Directors voted unanimously on Thursday, March 23, to dedicate the East Los Angeles Civic Center subway station in honor of Latina political pioneer Gloria Molina, who announced last week she is battling terminal cancer.
“I would like to celebrate and honor her service and her legacy for her time that she spent, here, as a Metro board member,” she continued. Molina wrote that she has been receiving treatment for three years, but that, “at this point, it is very aggressive.”
