Ad Highlights Fiscal Accountability
Los Angeles, CA — Wendy Greuel’s campaign for Mayor today launched its first 30-second television ad, which will run throughout the Los Angeles area. The ad, “All of LA,” highlights Greuel’s record on fiscal responsibility and government accountability.
“I will be a Mayor for all of Los Angeles so that no part of the City is left behind – and that’s what our first ad is all about,” said Greuel. “As mayor, I will ensure that every one of Los Angeles’ diverse neighborhoods has a voice, so we can work together to solve the challenges that the city faces. I’ll build on my experience as Controller to be a tough fiscal watchdog, reducing waste so that we can fund important priorities such as creating jobs, improving our schools, and speeding up emergency response times. I am ready to lead this city – I don’t just want to be the Mayor, I actually want to do the job of Mayor.”
Greuel is the first of the mayoral candidates to air a television ad.

Greuel recently earned the support of the Los Angeles Police Protective League, and leads the field of candidates in support from labor organizations representing tens of thousands of men and women across Los Angeles.
Greuel has also secured endorsements from prominent elected and community leaders including U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer, Congressmembers Janice Hahn and Tony Cardenas, Assembly Speaker John A. Pérez, State Senators Fran Pavley and Alex Padilla, Former Assembly Speaker Bob Hertzberg, Assemblymembers Bonnie Lowenthal, Felipe Fuentes and Nancy Skinner, Los Angeles County Supervisor Gloria Molina, Los Angeles City Councilmembers Bill Rosendahl and José Huizar, Houston Mayor Annise Parker, and civil rights icons Dolores Huerta and John Mack. She also was recently endorsed by the Los Angeles League of Conservation Voters, HONOR PAC, and Pro Active Democrats.
Script: “All of LA”
Every part of LA deserves a better city government.
I’m Wendy Greuel, and as city controller, I found $160 million dollars in waste and fraud.
Your tax dollars, squandered.
As mayor, I can stop the waste because I know where it is.
And I’ll use the savings for job creation, better schools, and faster emergency response in every part of our city.
We need a mayor for all of LA.
So no one is left behind. And no one is forgotten.”
