Photos: Frazier Swearing-In Celebration

I had the opportunity yesterday to attend Assemblyman Jim Fraziers big day in Sacramento as he was sworn into the State Assembly. His guests were able to watch the Oath be taken from his office and spend a little bit of time with him before the real work begins.  Many other Assembly member’s and Senators stopped by to congratulate Frazier which included Mark DeSaulnier who came in to congratulate him.  It was such an honor and an fabulous experience to join him on this historic day.

Here is his first official press release as an Assemblyman along with some of the photographs I took.
