Jesus Raga, 34, a quadriplegic. Mayor of the city of Valencia
Bonrepòs i Mirambell
When Jesus was 15 years, an accident traffic left him in a wheelchair.
always had political concerns, I proposed and she accepted. Spent seven years at City Hall, being the last of the deputy mayor. It became number 2 in the socialist list "right hand" of the previous mayor, died last year, Ms. Vicenta Bosch.
is the first quadriplegic mayor in Spain or at least as strong an injury (hopefully not the last). I also wish that from now on, this news is no longer "news" and that normal to see a disabled person, can be incorporated without any difficulty to a responsible job of this type.
moves in her chair wheel, driving the computer and phone with a long pencil you use your mouth. To go get help from family and peers, as well as a caregiver.
Jesus says: I am convinced that a quadriplegic can be mayor, because to be, "one does not run, but have heads and mine is perfect."
The Jesus inner circle has encouraged a lot to go on, giving forces at all times.
This will be a great example for the disabled, are also in wheelchairs, people who like him can not move arms or legs, but perfectly clear head and able to take a job. Congratulations
to everyone who has trusted him.
