Maria Salinas, CEO, LA Chamber of Commerce

The LA Chamber is proud to support Rick’s economic policy for women in the economy. This ambitious plan will remove barriers for women-owned businesses, especially in the areas of procurement, and allow for increased opportunities. Women – especially women of color – are the backbone of our economy and have been particularly devastated by the pandemic. By acknowledging the unique challenges women face, Rick has developed a comprehensive plan that will create an ecosystem where women can truly flourish.”
