Mia knows what it's like not to have a voice. That's why she is working so hard to represent yours.
Mia Livas Porter is a mother, gun violence survivor, activist, community organizer, and a progressive Democrat running to represent the 52st District for the California State Assembly. As the youngest of five children born to Filipino immigrants, Mia grew up watching her parents work hard to achieve their American Dream. They instilled in her the importance of giving back to her community and taking care of each other. She witnessed her father, a doctor, and her mom, a nurse, waive payments for those who couldn't afford office visits and make house calls to elderly patients who couldn't leave home. They raised her to prioritize people before profit.
Mia supports investing in more affordable housing, public housing, and local rent control. She will fight for tenants' rights and stand against violent sweeps of our unhoused neighbors.
