A Bridge for El Monte!

Alma D. Puente
Candidate, El Monte City Council

Raised in El Monte, Alma Puente is the daughter of an immigrant mother who faced many immigration struggles before becoming a naturalized U.S. citizen. Her parents taught her that if you love something you fight for it, and as the owner of a local law practice and an advocate for under-represented people, she has been doing just that for decades.

Now, as this pandemic continues to ravage cities across the nation, Alma is even more dedicated to make sure El Monte remains a beacon of hope, safety and prosperity. A tireless fighter for our families and businesses, Alma is ready to join the Council and work together to be a part of the solution.

A tireless fighter for our families and businesses, Alma Puente has the background, dedication to serving others, and fresh leadership we need on City Council!
