LA City Council rapidly learns Spanish

In a bold but smart move, members of the LA City Council are taking it upon themselves to learn Spanish...and fast! According to statistics, 40% of LA county residents above the age of 5 speak Spanish at home. It's interesting that members of government would face the reality that many if not most of its constituents speak Spanish and would consequently move to be accessible, which I wholeheartedly applaud. No word yet on how the council members are picking up their palabras.
