*A coalition of Los Angeles civil rights and religious leaders are calling for the immediate resignation of labor leader Ron Herrera, as well as Los Angeles City Council members Nury Martinez, Gil Cedillo and Kevin de León to step down as councilmembers immediately for engaging in racist remarks.
“We are also calling for an independent investigation by California Attorney General Rob Bonta’s office to see if civil rights violations occurred during their meetings.
“We believe that during the redistricting process that process was manipulated by Martinez, Cedillo, DeLeon, and Herrera for personal and political gain. The audio tapes are proof of this,” said Najee Ali Director of Project Islamic Hope.
