(Sacramento) - Assemblymember Freddie Rodriguez (D-Pomona) was an EMT for many years before being elected to serve the people of the 52nd Assembly District as their legislator. So - he knows the dangers of working in the emergency medical field. Assemblymember Rodriguez wrote Assembly Bill 172 to close a dangerous loophole in the law that puts emergency room personnel in danger. KTXL FOX 40 in Sacramento covered a rally in support of AB 172 on the State Capitol steps. Here's their story in this Assembly Assets video. http://www.asmdc.org/rodriguez
