Championing Educational Equity, Civil Rights, and Social Justice for LGBTQ+

Ricardo Lara is California’s 8th Insurance Commissioner since 2018. He became the first openly gay person elected to statewide office in California’s history. Raised in East Los Angeles, Ricardo knows first-hand the challenges facing communities. Join us as we engage in conversation with Commissioner Lara about his commitment to improving quality and access to education, protecting women’s and LGBTQ+ rights, and ensuring government transparency. As a champion for social justice issues, his work has impacted women’s rights, immigrants, students, and communities of color.
