LOS ANGELES -- Senator Barbara Boxer today enthusiastically endorsed Measure M, the Los Angeles County Traffic Improvement Plan, citing its positive impact on infrastructure, air quality and quality of life.

"As I prepare to leave the Senate, I am strongly supporting Measure M because it will continue my commitment to improving California's infrastructure, air quality and quality of life for millions of people across L.A. County. I urge everyone in L.A. County to vote yes on Measure M," Senator Boxer said. "Passing Measure M will enable L.A. County communities to work with my successor to secure hundreds of millions of dollars in federal transportation infrastructure funding that would otherwise go elsewhere."
