   WHEREAS, The City of Los Angeles, which represents over three
million residents and prides itself in cultural diversity, aims to
include all of its citizens in community affairs; and
   WHEREAS, Located in southern California, Los Angeles is one of the
world's major global cities, and is a hub of shipping,
manufacturing, and financial industries. Los Angeles is also
world-renowned in the entertainment and communications fields; and

without a majority population. People from 140 countries, who speak
approximately 86 languages, currently call Los Angeles home; and
   WHEREAS, Los Angeles is home to over 500,000 El Salvadorans, who
have contributed to improving the quality of life in the great City
of Los Angeles. A large majority of the city's El Salvadoran
population resides in the Pico Union area of Los Angeles; now,
therefore, be it
   Resolved by the Assembly of the State of California, the Senate
thereof concurring, That the State of California recognizes the Los
Angeles area between Adams Boulevard and 11th Street on Vermont
Boulevard as the El Salvador Community Corridor; and be it further
   Resolved, That the Chief Clerk of the Assembly transmit copies of
