Salud Carbajal

Salud Carbajal's story is the kind I find genuinely moving. Born in Moroleon, Guanajuato, he rose to represent California's 24th district in Congress, carrying his immigrant roots into the halls of power. His 2012 Ohtli Award for serving the Mexican community tells me he never forgot where he came from. I respect politicians who act as bridges between two nations rather than choosing sides. Whatever one thinks of his party, the trajectory from a small Mexican town to a UC Santa Barbara education to Capitol Hill is a testament to persistence, and that arc earns my admiration.
