Harris-Dawson, who takes over the post on Sept. 20, said homelessness will be the 'number one, two and three' issues the council focuses on during his presidency.
Los Angeles City Councilmember Marqueece Harris-Dawson won his bid for the council's top leadership post on Tuesday, saying he intends to use the presidency to focus heavily on homelessness. The council voted 14-0 to select Harris-Dawson to replace Paul Krekorian, who has held the position since October 2022, following the audio leak scandal that spurred the resignation of Council President Nury Martinez. Harris-Dawson, 54, is slated to take over the presidency on Sept. 20.
Harris-Dawson told The Times earlier this month that he had spoken with each of his colleagues about what they want in a president. On Tuesday, while fielding questions from reporters, he declined to say whether he had asked Councilmember Kevin de León, a major figure in the 2022 audio scandal, to support his bid for the leadership post. 'I'm happy that it was a unanimous vote,' Harris-Dawson said.
