New Sacramento City Council members sworn in. Will ‘good trouble’ follow? [The Sacramento Bee]
Dec. 17 Katie Valenzuela, Mai Vang and Sean Loloee took themselves off mute, raised their right hands to their computer screens and repeated the oath of office. Like so many other things this year, the traditional swearing-in ceremony for three new Sacramento City Council members was done virtually on Tuesday.
Even without the typical crowds and photos with families, the ceremony had several touching and poignant moments. Current members warmly welcomed the new members and shared advice. It’s too soon to say how the council’s new dynamic will truly be during this critical time, however.
