		Molina sees quilting as a logical extension of her desire to raise visibility and inspire enthusiasm for the Hispanic presence in our culture.

	Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Los Angeles County follows usual California practice in that it did not subdivide into separate counties or increase the number of Supervisors as its population soared after 1920.
		Part of the reason why voters in the county don't approve measures that have been put before them to increase the number of Supervisors is fear of a political power shift that might prove unfavorable to them - necessitating the status quo.
		However, supervisor Molina has supported expansion of the board (to increase the Hispanic representation on the board), and supervisor Yaroslavsky has supported the idea of an elected county executive, much liike King County, Washington, who directly supervises county departments.

		Supervisor Gloria Molina, who is taking over the reins of First 5 LA -- the commission which disburses millions in tobacco taxes earmarked for children's services -- says she will take steps to ensure that no more funding is granted to groups providing pregnancy services unless "a full range of options" is offered, including abortion.
