Assemblymember Anthony Portantino, who represents part of Monrovia, is being honored by "Fertility Action" for authoring AB 428, "which called on insurers to provide fertility options for patients of childbearing age who face chemotherapy. Chemo often leads to infertility. Under Portantino's proposal, patients maintain the ability to have children after treatment. Although the bill was held in the Assembly, it brought nationwide attention to the issue."
