Meet Karen Bass
Karen is a proud daughter of Los Angeles. She was raised with three brothers in the Venice/Fairfax area of Los Angeles and is the only daughter of DeWitt and Wilhelmina Bass. As a child, sitting with her father, Karen watched the dawn of the Civil Rights Movement unfold on television, which sparked her interest in what community activism can achieve. It was then that she made a lifetime commitment to fight for social and economic justice.

Setting the Record Straight:
The Karen Bass campaign issued a cease and desist letter in response to a wildly misleading, defamatory attack ad. Voters need to know that the Los Angeles Police Protective League — a police union supporting Rick Caruso — is spending nearly $2 million on false attack ads accusing her of voting for USC to receive federal funding. These ads are lies. Congresswoman Bass voted to fund federal agencies and the federal government. USC was not mentioned in any of the bills.
