Congresswoman Laura Richardson has announced that she’s chosen Martin Luther King Jr. – Harbor Hospital as the location for her local swearing-in ceremony scheduled to take place this Saturday, September 22, 2007.
“I can’t think of a more fitting place for my public inauguration than in the heart of the community with the people that made this all possible,” says Richardson. “I promised that once elected that I would make King Hospital a top priority in Washington. Having my local Congressional swearing-in ceremony on the front lawn of this embattled, beloved, and much needed hospital is one way I am calling attention to the crisis at King Hospital.”
The event will take place on Saturday, September 22, 2007 at 1 p.m. on the front lawn of the Martin Luther King Jr. – Harbor Hospital located at 12021 South Wilmington Avenue in Los Angeles. The event is free and open to the public. To R.S.V.P. to attend, please call (310) 538-1190.
