While serving on the City Council, Goldberg spearheaded efforts to extend benefits to unmarried domestic partners and authored a significant ordinance that ensured a living wage and benefits for all City of Los Angeles employees. She was also credited by the business community with being instrumental in revitalizing Hollywood. In the State Assembly, she authored several education-related bills and passed legislation that granted LGBT couples rights similar to those of married spouses.
"Sara Hernandez is the next generation of fearless leadership our communities urgently need. At a time when too many are willing to accept the status quo, Sara has consistently stood with working people—not corporate interests—and fought for strong public schools, economic justice, a healthier environment, and dignity for every family. I’m proud to endorse her because she will not back down from the fight for equality, affordability, safe green spaces, and basic human rights.”
