Esta mujer de 52 años, que vive en el condado de Tulare, afirmó que tanto ella como sus padres se beneficiaron del activismo de Chávez, quien apoyó la última gran ley de reforma migratoria que se adoptó en la década de 1980.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Todavía no me lo puedo creer del todo, que una persona tan valiente que luchó por todos nosotros para garantizar que pudiéramos tener sombra, agua, baños limpios y mejores condiciones laborales, que una persona tan dedicada al pueblo… pudiera hacer algo así”, afirmó García, que se dedica a sembrar y cosechar plantas en un trabajo representado por el Sindicato de Trabajadores Agrícolas (o UFW por sus siglas en inglés), el sindicato que Chávez y Dolores Huerta establecieron juntos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huerta, que ahora tiene 95 años, reveló por primera vez públicamente que Chávez la manipuló para mantener relaciones sexuales con ella y la violó en la década de 1960, y declaró al \u003cem>The New York Times\u003c/em> que ambos encuentros la dejaron embarazada. La investigación de varios años del \u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em>, \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/18/us/cesar-chavez-sexual-abuse-allegations-ufw.html\">publicada el 18 de marzo\u003c/a>, también detalla las acusaciones de dos mujeres, hijas de organizadores sindicales, que afirmaron que Chávez las abusó sexualmente cuando eran niñas en la década de 1970.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12077475\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1536px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12077475\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/03/Farmworker-picks-grapes.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/03/Farmworker-picks-grapes.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/03/Farmworker-picks-grapes-160x107.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Un trabajador agrícola recolecta uvas en un campo de Fresno el 3 de septiembre de 2025. \u003ccite>(Gina Castro para KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Cuando Rolando Hernández se enteró por primera vez de las acusaciones a través de sus compañeros de trabajo durante una reunión de formación laboral, el extrabajador agrícola se quedó desconcertado. Pensó que la conversación debía de referirse a otra persona.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Disculpen, pero ¿de qué César Chávez están hablando?”, preguntó Hernández, de 33 años, en la reunión. “Porque yo solo sé de un César Chávez que luchó por los derechos de los trabajadores agrícolas para que se les pagaran mejores salarios y hubiese menos injusticias en los campos”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Ese mismo”, fue la respuesta, lo que dejó a Hernández sin palabras.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Fue un golpe muy duro”, dijo Hernández, quien trabaja para organización sin fines de lucro para trabajadores agrícolas con sede en Fresno. Él comenzó a cosechar chiles en Arizona a los 14 años de edad antes de trabajar con viñedos y naranjales en California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>La reacción a las revelaciones \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12077336/como-reacciono-california-a-las-acusaciones-de-supuesta-conducta-sexual-inapropiada-de-cesar-chavez\">fue casi inmediata\u003c/a>. Los legisladores de California planean cambiar el nombre de la festividad estatal dedicada a Chávez por el de “Día de los Trabajadores Agrícolas”. Ciudades, estados y organizaciones, incluida la UFW, tomaron medidas para posponer o cancelar las celebraciones previstas para el 31 de marzo en honor al cumpleaños del líder sindical mexicano-estadounidense. Las autoridades están considerando \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12077059/san-francisco-fought-to-name-a-major-street-after-cesar-chavez-will-it-be-renamed-again\">cambiar el nombre de calles\u003c/a>, parques, bibliotecas, escuelas y otros edificios que llevan el nombre de Chávez.[aside label='Más en español' tag='kqed-en-espanol']Durante décadas, la colaboración entre Chávez y Huerta para promover los derechos de los trabajadores agrícolas se ha conmemorado en libros de texto infantiles, biografías, películas y desfiles. Ahora, varias madres, García entre ellas, se sienten por la falta de medidas para prevenir y responder a las presuntas agresiones.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Lo siento mucho por ellas. Lo que les ha pasado me duele en lo más profundo del alma” dijo García. “Si es verdad lo que pasó, ¿por qué no se habló hace mucho tiempo? ¿Por qué hasta ahora?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chávez falleció en 1993. Huerta dijo que guardó silencio durante 60 años porque temía dañar la reputación de un hombre que se convirtió en el rostro del movimiento por los derechos civiles de los mexicoamericanos, conocido por los boicots, las marchas y las huelgas a nivel nacional que lograron avances significativos para miles de trabajadores agrícolas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Guardé este secreto durante tanto tiempo porque construir el movimiento y garantizar los derechos de los trabajadores agrícolas ha sido el trabajo de mi vida”, dijo Huerta en un comunicado tras la publicación de la investigación del \u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em>. “Nunca me he identificado como víctima, pero ahora entiendo que soy una víctimas: de la violencia, del abuso sexual, de hombres dominantes que me veían a mí, y a otras mujeres, como propiedad o como objetos que controlar”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Luz Gallegos, cuyas experiencias de niña acompañando a sus padres a los mítines y marchas de la UFW la inspiraron a convertirse en defensora de los trabajadores agrícolas, afirmó sentirse devastada por las revelaciones. Gallegos, que actualmente es directora del Centro Legal TODEC, una organización sin fines de lucro dedicada a los inmigrantes y trabajadores agrícolas en la región de Inland Empire y el Valle de Coachella, elogió la valentía de Huerta y del resto de las víctimas que cargaron con su dolor antes de decidir hablar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Nos solidarizamos con nuestra compañera Dolores Huerta y a las víctimas. Lo que se ha revelado es muy doloroso y profundamente perturbador”, dijo Gallegos, con la voz entrecortada. “Sabemos de primera mano que el silencio nunca ha protegido a nuestras comunidades de trabajadores agrícolas, y ningún movimiento ni la justicia pueden pedir a la gente que guarde silencio ante los abusos, nunca lo han hecho y nunca lo harán”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12077476\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1536px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12077476\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/03/Mandarin-orchard.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/03/Mandarin-orchard.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/03/Mandarin-orchard-160x107.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Un huerto de mandarinos al oeste de Fresno, California, el 21 de marzo de 2017. \u003ccite>(Alexandra Hall/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Ella, al igual que otras personas que hablaron con KQED horas después de conocer la noticia, afirmó que quieren que este momento de rendición de cuentas contribuya a evitar abusos similares en el futuro. Esperan que las acusaciones contra Chávez no socaven los logros del movimiento de trabajadores agrícolas en su conjunto, construidos por muchos trabajadores y sus familias a lo largo de décadas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“En este momento, estamos sumidos en el dolor. Siento un gran dolor en el pecho, en la mente, en el corazón”, dijo Gallegos. “Al mismo tiempo, es una reflexión de que no podemos quedarnos callados, no podemos dejar que nuestro movimiento termine…asegurando a nuestra comunidad que su voz importa y que nadie debería soportar ningún tipo de abuso”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>García, que empezó a acompañar a sus padres a trabajar en la agricultura desde los 10 años de edad, dijo que el acoso sexual por parte de los contratistas y supervisores agrícolas era algo frecuente. Según contó, la despidieron de varios trabajos como represalia por no aceptar las insinuaciones de los hombres. Sin embargo, afiliarse a la UFW le ayudó a mejorar sus condiciones laborales y a sentirse respaldada para quejarse si surgían problemas, afirmó.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12077477\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1536px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12077477\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/03/Farmworker-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/03/Farmworker-1-1.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/03/Farmworker-1-1-160x107.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Un trabajador agrícola recolecta uvas en un campo de Fresno el 3 de septiembre de 2025. \u003ccite>(Gina Castro para KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>García afirmó que, si algún miembro del sindicato o cualquier otra persona tenía conocimiento de las acusaciones contra Chávez y no las investigó o bien ignoró deliberadamente a las víctimas menores de edad, eso debería tener consecuencias.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Si esas personas siguen por ahí, si siguen con vida, entonces deben rendir cuentas”, afirmó.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fuera de un tribunal de Fresno, la presidenta del sindicato, Teresa Romero, pidió al público que respetara la privacidad de las víctimas que se atrevieron a denunciar, según \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/justice/2026/03/cesar-chavez-ufw-romero/\">CalMatters\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No aprobamos las acciones de César Chávez”, dijo Romero. “Está mal”.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Este artículo fue traducido por la periodista \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/mpena/\">María Peña\u003c/a> y esa traducción fue editada por el periodista \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/ccabreralomeli\">Carlos Cabrera-Lomelí\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Back when I was a student at San Francisco State, I used to walk by the Cesar Chavez Student Center almost every day. There’s also this mural above the entrance of the building of him carrying a torch. Chavez died in 1993, but he’s memorialized and honored on dozens of buildings, streets, murals, and even schools that celebrate his work as the co-founder of the United Farm Workers, which fought and won historic labor protections for farm workers. Growing up here, we learned that Cesar Chavez’s story is a California story, that it’s our history. Now California is reckoning with the more painful parts of Chavez’ legacy, after the New York Times published an investigation into allegations that Chavez sexually abused women and girls. Citing dozens of interviews, union records, emails, and photographs. Two women now in their 60s, Ana Murguia and Debra Rojas, say Chavez groomed and sexually abused them when they were children. Chavez’ prominent ally, Dolores Huerta, also says Chavez sexually assaulted her twice, but was discouraged from speaking out for years. Because of the stain it could leave on his legacy and the broader farm worker movement. Now Californians around the state say, it’s time to learn from this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Luz Gallegos \u003c/strong>[00:01:49] Silence has never protected our farm worker communities. And we know that no movement for justice can ask people to stay silent about abuse, not then and not now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra \u003c/strong>[00:02:02] Today we hear from organizers and farm workers about how the allegations against Cesar Chavez have rocked California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jessica Paz-Cedillos \u003c/strong>[00:02:20] Good afternoon. My name is Jessica Paz-Cedillos. I am the CEO here at the Mexican Heritage Plaza. I wish we were gathering under different circumstances, but we’re not, and this is a heavy moment. First and foremost, we stand with survivors. We believe you. This moment forces us to hold two truths at once. The farm workers movement transformed lives. And at the same time, we are confronting firsthand accounts of harm that cannot be ignored or minimized. For us here in East San Jose, this is personal. This is Cesar Chavez’s neighborhood. That proximity makes this moment more painful, but also more important. Because we don’t have the luxury of distancing ourselves from it. We have to face it. Movements for justice are not immune from harm. And survivors should never have to choose between telling the truth and protecting a movement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Joseph Geha \u003c/strong>[00:03:51] So Maritza, will you just say your first, last name, titles, and so we can hear how you sound.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maritza Maldonado \u003c/strong>[00:03:56] Maritza Maldonado, founder and executive director of Amigos Guadalupe Center for Justice and Empowerment. So this hits very personal to me as a child who was raised in East San Jose, a proud, proud East Sider. Cesar Chavez was our hero. It’s who we looked up to. And so to read what we heard this week has been beyond devastating. Every book that I read about Cesar and a historian of the movement has been really hard. The women as a woman of color and the campesinas that endured, our hearts are with them and we stand firmly with them in solidarity and know that this movement will continue by the people here, that it was never about one man.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Joseph Geha \u003c/strong>[00:04:53] And Amigos de Guadalupe purchased Cesar Chavez’s, was his, the home he lived in for a portion of his youth. Am I correct? Not too far from here, right? Tell us about that home. Tell us why your organization bought that home and tell us what comes next with that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maritza Maldonado \u003c/strong>[00:05:08] So obviously, it’s to lift up the Chavez legacy, right? It was important for me, for Amigos, to have that be part of the legacy of the San Jose. That said, that house will remain the people’s house. We are deciding what we’re going to name it, but it will remain a place for community organizers, a place for healing, a place for, a place of love. We are in deep, deep grief. Trust has been broken. But what I do know is “Si Se Puede” lives here every single day. The motto that Dolores Huerta said, “Si Se Puede.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maria Garcia Hernandez \u003c/strong>[00:06:14] My name is Maria García Hernández.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>English Voiceover \u003c/strong>[00:06:21] I have been working in the fields for more than 30 years.

Because I truly believe that farm workers are still not valued enough for their work. They are still paid very unfairly. Maybe you get sick with something like diabetes, you’re dealing with all the stress of not getting paid enough, where you can’t even pay rent, the electricity bill, gas or even food. The cost of living keeps going up, but what workers are getting paid?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>English Voiceover \u003c/strong>[00:09:28] I am worried about how much we’ve gained. The innocent should not pay for what the sinners have done. In other words, those of us who are still alive and fighting should not have to pay for what that person did.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Luz Gallegos \u003c/strong>[00:09:51] I’m going through a lot of heaviness in my heart, a lot of pain. Hi, I’m Luz Gallegos with TODEC legal center. It’s a very challenging day today. It has been a very challenging, a very heavy day for myself. Definitely was caught by surprise by the news. Also the extraordinary courage from Dolores and the survivors to carry this truth for so many decades, and to still choose to speak on it and to speak up on it. As women, as community, we stand in solidarity with our compañera Dolores and the survivors. And again, what has been revealed is very painful and deeply disturbing. Silence has never protected our farm worker communities. And we know that no movement for justice can ask people to stay silent about abuse, not then and not now. And we know it’s not a betrayal. By standing with our survivors through this time of pain, it is a commitment to our values as a movement. It’s painful to learn what our compañeras have endured these decades and what they kept secret and in their hearts. And only they know the pain, right? Because they’re the ones that went through it, but we were in solidarity with them because their pain is our pain, their struggle is our struggle, and we can’t stop.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Back when I was a student at San Francisco State, I used to walk by the Cesar Chavez Student Center almost every day. There’s also this mural above the entrance of the building of him carrying a torch. Chavez died in 1993, but he’s memorialized and honored on dozens of buildings, streets, murals, and even schools that celebrate his work as the co-founder of the United Farm Workers, which fought and won historic labor protections for farm workers. Growing up here, we learned that Cesar Chavez’s story is a California story, that it’s our history. Now California is reckoning with the more painful parts of Chavez’ legacy, after the New York Times published an investigation into allegations that Chavez sexually abused women and girls. Citing dozens of interviews, union records, emails, and photographs. Two women now in their 60s, Ana Murguia and Debra Rojas, say Chavez groomed and sexually abused them when they were children. Chavez’ prominent ally, Dolores Huerta, also says Chavez sexually assaulted her twice, but was discouraged from speaking out for years. Because of the stain it could leave on his legacy and the broader farm worker movement. Now Californians around the state say, it’s time to learn from this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Luz Gallegos \u003c/strong>[00:01:49] Silence has never protected our farm worker communities. And we know that no movement for justice can ask people to stay silent about abuse, not then and not now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra \u003c/strong>[00:02:02] Today we hear from organizers and farm workers about how the allegations against Cesar Chavez have rocked California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jessica Paz-Cedillos \u003c/strong>[00:02:20] Good afternoon. My name is Jessica Paz-Cedillos. I am the CEO here at the Mexican Heritage Plaza. I wish we were gathering under different circumstances, but we’re not, and this is a heavy moment. First and foremost, we stand with survivors. We believe you. This moment forces us to hold two truths at once. The farm workers movement transformed lives. And at the same time, we are confronting firsthand accounts of harm that cannot be ignored or minimized. For us here in East San Jose, this is personal. This is Cesar Chavez’s neighborhood. That proximity makes this moment more painful, but also more important. Because we don’t have the luxury of distancing ourselves from it. We have to face it. Movements for justice are not immune from harm. And survivors should never have to choose between telling the truth and protecting a movement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Joseph Geha \u003c/strong>[00:03:51] So Maritza, will you just say your first, last name, titles, and so we can hear how you sound.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maritza Maldonado \u003c/strong>[00:03:56] Maritza Maldonado, founder and executive director of Amigos Guadalupe Center for Justice and Empowerment. So this hits very personal to me as a child who was raised in East San Jose, a proud, proud East Sider. Cesar Chavez was our hero. It’s who we looked up to. And so to read what we heard this week has been beyond devastating. Every book that I read about Cesar and a historian of the movement has been really hard. The women as a woman of color and the campesinas that endured, our hearts are with them and we stand firmly with them in solidarity and know that this movement will continue by the people here, that it was never about one man.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Joseph Geha \u003c/strong>[00:04:53] And Amigos de Guadalupe purchased Cesar Chavez’s, was his, the home he lived in for a portion of his youth. Am I correct? Not too far from here, right? Tell us about that home. Tell us why your organization bought that home and tell us what comes next with that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maritza Maldonado \u003c/strong>[00:05:08] So obviously, it’s to lift up the Chavez legacy, right? It was important for me, for Amigos, to have that be part of the legacy of the San Jose. That said, that house will remain the people’s house. We are deciding what we’re going to name it, but it will remain a place for community organizers, a place for healing, a place for, a place of love. We are in deep, deep grief. Trust has been broken. But what I do know is “Si Se Puede” lives here every single day. The motto that Dolores Huerta said, “Si Se Puede.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maria Garcia Hernandez \u003c/strong>[00:06:14] My name is Maria García Hernández.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>English Voiceover \u003c/strong>[00:06:21] I have been working in the fields for more than 30 years. I have worked on the entire grape harvest, from the clearing, the weeding, and the pruning of the grapevines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maria Garcia Hernandez \u003c/strong>[00:06:30] Yo estoy todavía de no creerlo porque…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>English Voiceover \u003c/strong>[00:06:35] I still don’t believe it because such a courageous person who fought for all of us, for everything we have, because if this person hadn’t fought, if Cesar Chavez hadn’t fight to give us so much protection, to give a shade, water, clean bathrooms, better working conditions, better salaries, a person so dedicated to people, so humane, it’s hard to believe what’s going on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maria Garcia Hernandez \u003c/strong>[00:07:00] Es dificil creer…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>English Voiceover \u003c/strong>[00:07:09] I also know Mrs. Dolores Huerta. My respects to her as well. I highly value her because we have had the opportunity to accompany her at events that she has also done to support us, so I am also super grateful to her too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maria Garcia Hernandez \u003c/strong>[00:07:22] Es demasiado…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>English Voiceover \u003c/strong>[00:07:31] This is too much. If it’s true what happened, why wasn’t it talked about long ago? Why now? Mr. Cesar Chavez, may he rest in peace, has been dead already for many years. I think this should have been brought up a long time ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Maria Garcia Hernandez \u003c/strong>[00:07:45] Antes de este tema…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>English Voiceover \u003c/strong>[00:07:53] I feel very sorry for them, truly, I was not there at the time, but if I was, if I had known, we could have done something, right?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Rolando Hernandez \u003c/strong>[00:08:16] Rolando Hernández,Yo creo que mucho de las veces…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>English Voiceover \u003c/strong>[00:08:26] People keep quiet to protect the reputation of a leader. But I really think it’s something that you have to talk about. Because because otherwise, the root of the problem will always be there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>English Voiceover \u003c/strong>[00:08:44] We continue to fight so workers have better salaries. Because I truly believe that farm workers are still not valued enough for their work. They are still paid very unfairly. Maybe you get sick with something like diabetes, you’re dealing with all the stress of not getting paid enough, where you can’t even pay rent, the electricity bill, gas or even food. The cost of living keeps going up, but what workers are getting paid?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>English Voiceover \u003c/strong>[00:09:28] I am worried about how much we’ve gained. The innocent should not pay for what the sinners have done. In other words, those of us who are still alive and fighting should not have to pay for what that person did.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Hi, I’m Luz Gallegos with TODEC legal center. It’s a very challenging day today. It has been a very challenging, a very heavy day for myself. Definitely was caught by surprise by the news. Also the extraordinary courage from Dolores and the survivors to carry this truth for so many decades, and to still choose to speak on it and to speak up on it. As women, as community, we stand in solidarity with our compañera Dolores and the survivors. And again, what has been revealed is very painful and deeply disturbing. Silence has never protected our farm worker communities. And we know that no movement for justice can ask people to stay silent about abuse, not then and not now. And we know it’s not a betrayal.

"content": "\u003cp>California immigrant advocates are making a final push to persuade state lawmakers to pass a bill that would end the practice of transferring noncitizens to immigration custody when they’re released from jail or prison — legislation that would go further than California’s existing so-called “sanctuary state” law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill, known as the VISION Act, overwhelmingly passed the state Assembly last year but fell short of the 21 votes needed for Senate passage, so it carried over as a “two-year bill.” Now it’s awaiting a floor vote in the state Senate before the legislative session concludes at the end of August.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill’s backers are looking for support from three more senators, and they’ve been \u003ca href=\"https://vietrise.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2022/08/2022.08.16_OC-Elected-Officials-Support-the-VISION-Act.pdf\">sending letters\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://sanfernandosun.com/2022/08/10/valley-organizations-urge-hertzberg-to-support-the-vision-act/\">holding rallies\u003c/a> in the districts of several Democrats still on the fence. If the session ends without a vote, the bill will die.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Late Tuesday, the authors made amendments to \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220AB937\">AB 937\u003c/a> that they hope will address concerns from Democratic senators who pulled back their support last year over opposition from law enforcement groups. One change would allow the state parole board to notify ICE if an immigrant who was released on parole is later convicted of a serious new offense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a recent press conference, Assemblymember Wendy Carrillo, the bill’s author, emphasized that it would still require incarcerated immigrants to serve their sentences. But under the VISION Act, state and local officials would no longer hand them over to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement upon release, unless served with a warrant issued by a judge. State and local officials would also stop tracking the birthplace of offenders in their criminal records systems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If individuals have served their time, have paid their debt to society, regardless of where you are born you have a right to restart your life,” she said. “That is the societal contract that we have. And California should not be in the business of collaborating with ICE.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On average, \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billAnalysisClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220AB937\">nearly 1,600 people come out of state prison each year with an immigration hold\u003c/a> that leads to their transfer to ICE to be deported, according to an estimate by state Senate staff.[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"California Assemblymember Wendy Carrillo\"]‘If individuals have served their time, have paid their debt to society, regardless of where you are born, you have a right to restart your life. That is the societal contract that we have.’[/pullquote]The VISION Act would close a loophole in an earlier law, the 2018 California Values Act, \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180SB54\">SB 54\u003c/a>, sometimes known as the “sanctuary state” law, which limited police and sheriff’s departments from collaborating with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, with exceptions for a wide range of crimes, from violent felonies to certain misdemeanors. The Values Act didn’t prohibit transfers to ICE by prisons, but the VISION Act would.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police and sheriff’s groups oppose the bill. They point to federal law, which says immigrants, even those who are legal with green cards, can be deported if they’ve committed a so-called “aggravated felony,” from a long list of crimes that includes some misdemeanors. And they say it’s safer for ICE to take custody of a person inside a locked facility than to arrest them at their home or a public location.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This proposed legislation puts local law enforcement in a no-win situation, having to choose between state and federal laws,” the Police Officers Research Association of California said in a statement last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And in a joint statement, \u003ca href=\"https://ct3.blob.core.windows.net/21blobs/58984f34-e091-4208-93db-4e804b666038\">law enforcement groups noted that the VISION Act would prevent them\u003c/a> from notifying immigration authorities of the release of people who had served sentences for crimes such as rape, murder and torture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are also not arguing that immigrants somehow pose any more threat than citizens or asking to involve immigration authorities in low-level offenses. However, there should be a point, in the most egregious cases, where we do not provide protections for dangerous persons from enforcement,” the statement said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But advocates for the bill say it’s not California’s responsibility to do the work of immigration enforcement, and ICE can still bring deportation proceedings against someone whether or not they’re incarcerated. They point to other states — including Oregon and Illinois — which have passed laws to end most prison-to-ICE transfers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In California, we’re always proud to say that we’re the first when it comes to social justice,” said veteran civil rights and labor organizer Dolores Huerta. “Well, now we’re not the first, because other states have already taken care of this issue. … It’s time for us to act.”[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Sandra Castañeda, Los Angeles resident\"]‘I thought I would never say this, but prison is better than this place.’[/pullquote]Huerta called the transfers “double jeopardy” because people often wind up spending additional months or years in ICE detention, where it’s more difficult to mount a defense against deportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los Angeles resident Sandra Castañeda lived through that. When her conviction for a murder she didn’t commit was vacated last summer, she thought she’d be going home after 19 years in prison. Instead, she was handed to ICE and held for a year in a private detention center in rural Georgia. She said she saw many women there give up their cases in desperation and accept deportation, because they couldn’t bear the conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I thought I would never say this, but prison is better than this place,” Castañeda said last month in a phone call from the Stewart Detention Center in Lumpkin, Ga. “In prison you have a routine. You have a job, there’s classes, there’s things to do. … Here, you’re stuck in a dorm with 23 people, all day, every day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Castañeda was released this month with the help of a pro bono lawyer, Anoop Prasad of the Asian Law Caucus in San Francisco. An immigration judge ruled that she’s not deportable because she no longer has an aggravated felony on her record.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Castañeda’s conviction was wiped away by a California judge after the Legislature eliminated the state’s “felony murder” rule, which had allowed her to be charged with murder because she was driving a car out of which a fatal shot was fired, even though she had no indication that her passenger would shoot. But Prasad noted that Castañeda also earned a commutation from Gov.

If the session ends without a vote, the bill will die.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Late Tuesday, the authors made amendments to \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220AB937\">AB 937\u003c/a> that they hope will address concerns from Democratic senators who pulled back their support last year over opposition from law enforcement groups. One change would allow the state parole board to notify ICE if an immigrant who was released on parole is later convicted of a serious new offense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a recent press conference, Assemblymember Wendy Carrillo, the bill’s author, emphasized that it would still require incarcerated immigrants to serve their sentences. But under the VISION Act, state and local officials would no longer hand them over to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement upon release, unless served with a warrant issued by a judge. State and local officials would also stop tracking the birthplace of offenders in their criminal records systems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The Values Act didn’t prohibit transfers to ICE by prisons, but the VISION Act would.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police and sheriff’s groups oppose the bill. They point to federal law, which says immigrants, even those who are legal with green cards, can be deported if they’ve committed a so-called “aggravated felony,” from a long list of crimes that includes some misdemeanors. And they say it’s safer for ICE to take custody of a person inside a locked facility than to arrest them at their home or a public location.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This proposed legislation puts local law enforcement in a no-win situation, having to choose between state and federal laws,” the Police Officers Research Association of California said in a statement last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And in a joint statement, \u003ca href=\"https://ct3.blob.core.windows.net/21blobs/58984f34-e091-4208-93db-4e804b666038\">law enforcement groups noted that the VISION Act would prevent them\u003c/a> from notifying immigration authorities of the release of people who had served sentences for crimes such as rape, murder and torture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are also not arguing that immigrants somehow pose any more threat than citizens or asking to involve immigration authorities in low-level offenses. However, there should be a point, in the most egregious cases, where we do not provide protections for dangerous persons from enforcement,” the statement said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But advocates for the bill say it’s not California’s responsibility to do the work of immigration enforcement, and ICE can still bring deportation proceedings against someone whether or not they’re incarcerated. They point to other states — including Oregon and Illinois — which have passed laws to end most prison-to-ICE transfers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In California, we’re always proud to say that we’re the first when it comes to social justice,” said veteran civil rights and labor organizer Dolores Huerta. “Well, now we’re not the first, because other states have already taken care of this issue. … It’s time for us to act.”\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

When her conviction for a murder she didn’t commit was vacated last summer, she thought she’d be going home after 19 years in prison. Instead, she was handed to ICE and held for a year in a private detention center in rural Georgia. She said she saw many women there give up their cases in desperation and accept deportation, because they couldn’t bear the conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I thought I would never say this, but prison is better than this place,” Castañeda said last month in a phone call from the Stewart Detention Center in Lumpkin, Ga. “In prison you have a routine. You have a job, there’s classes, there’s things to do. … Here, you’re stuck in a dorm with 23 people, all day, every day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Castañeda was released this month with the help of a pro bono lawyer, Anoop Prasad of the Asian Law Caucus in San Francisco. An immigration judge ruled that she’s not deportable because she no longer has an aggravated felony on her record.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Castañeda’s conviction was wiped away by a California judge after the Legislature eliminated the state’s “felony murder” rule, which had allowed her to be charged with murder because she was driving a car out of which a fatal shot was fired, even though she had no indication that her passenger would shoot. But Prasad noted that Castañeda also earned a commutation from Gov.

He says it’s high time the city honored Huerta, who co-founded the National Farmworkers Association (now \u003ca href=\"https://ufw.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">United Farm Workers\u003c/a>) with Cesar Chavez and fought tirelessly for decades on behalf of workers rights, in the same way it’s honored Chavez.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was around San Francisco when Cesar Chavez Street was named,” Scullion says of the thoroughfare formerly known as Army Street. “And I always thought it was strange that Dolores didn’t get a street as well.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scullion, a resident of the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood, says he’s known of Chavez and Huerta since he was a child, and that his parents participated in the Delano Grape Strike of 1965. Huerta led the fight against table grape growers in Delano, California to stop the exploitation of farm workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Over the years, I’ve read news articles about her and always considered her a personal hero,” Scullion says. “I saw the documentary \u003cem>Dolores\u003c/em> and went to hear her speak at the Herbst Theater.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"DOLORES Official Theatrical Trailer\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/Unzr9kiFScQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen>\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some public officials are aware of the campaign, and supportive of it—in principle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Dolores Huerta is one of my all-time heroes, and it’s exciting and fitting that people are raising the idea of renaming a major street running through the Latino Cultural District in her honor,” says \u003ca href=\"https://sfbos.org/supervisor-ronen-district-9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">District 9 Supervisor Hillary Ronen\u003c/a>, in whose jurisdiction the proposed street name change partially falls. “I would be happy to carry it forward if we see broad community support for the change.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huerta is 89 years old. The Presidential Medal of Freedom honoree already has a square named after her in Los Angeles, as well as several schools in California and beyond. Scullion says naming a San Francisco street after Huerta would be a fitting tribute for her upcoming 90th birthday. (April 10, Huerta’s birthday, is Dolores Huerta Day in California.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Renaming South Van Ness seems like a win for everyone,” Scullion says. “The mayor and supervisors can have a chance to shine a spotlight on someone who exemplifies the spirit of San Francisco, the neighborhood and city get a constant reminder of a role model, and Ms. Huerta can be given a birthday gift acknowledging her contributions and sacrifices.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The petition comes at a time when the city of San Francisco has \u003ca href=\"https://sfgov.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=F&ID=6652905&GUID=6042BF04-6B7C-4319-A442-E535F3E9F012\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">legislation\u003c/a> in place to increase the representation of women on the city’s street names, public buildings, and public art by 30 percent before the end of 2020.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the race to meet the legislative requirements, it seems unlikely that the street name change, if it comes to pass, will happen in time for Huerta’s birthday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://sfpublicworks.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">San Francisco Department of Public Works\u003c/a> spokeswoman Rachel Gordon says street name changes involve getting a groundswell of community buy-in before her department begins its in-depth review process, and then potentially sends the request on to the board of supervisors and mayor for approval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The ones that succeed are the ones where there is a lot of community outreach,” Rosen says. “And the ones where there are not a lot of properties on the street.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An \u003ca href=\"https://sfpublicworks.org/services/establishing-street-names\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">online Department of Public Works information sheet\u003c/a> about the process mentions the need for property owners to be on board with the potential street name change: “If a member of the public initiates the request, they must present their petition to Public Works with signatures from property owners whose lots are abutting the subject street. The number of signatures must indicate a very strong majority in favor of the change.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While some local street name changes, like the \u003ca href=\"http://kqed.org/news/11710877/san-francisco-unveils-frida-kahlo-way-renaming-phelan-avenue\">2018 switch from Phelan Avenue to Frida Kahlo Way\u003c/a>, don’t meet with too much opposition, some street name changes are controversial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gordon says many people in San Francisco opposed the decision to rename Army Street to Cesar Chavez Street in the mid-1990s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s an old school San Francisco street,” Gordon says. “There are still some bumper stickers you see around town that say ‘It Will Always Be Army Street To Me.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because of the number of properties on South Van Ness, Gordon says getting the necessary community buy-in could be tough.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That would be a huge undertaking, to change the name of South Van Ness,” Gordon says. “Possibly even bigger than Cesar Chavez Street.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Huerta led the fight against table grape growers in Delano, California to stop the exploitation of farm workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Over the years, I’ve read news articles about her and always considered her a personal hero,” Scullion says. “I saw the documentary \u003cem>Dolores\u003c/em> and went to hear her speak at the Herbst Theater.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"DOLORES Official Theatrical Trailer\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/Unzr9kiFScQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen>\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some public officials are aware of the campaign, and supportive of it—in principle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Dolores Huerta is one of my all-time heroes, and it’s exciting and fitting that people are raising the idea of renaming a major street running through the Latino Cultural District in her honor,” says \u003ca href=\"https://sfbos.org/supervisor-ronen-district-9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">District 9 Supervisor Hillary Ronen\u003c/a>, in whose jurisdiction the proposed street name change partially falls. “I would be happy to carry it forward if we see broad community support for the change.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Huerta is 89 years old. The Presidential Medal of Freedom honoree already has a square named after her in Los Angeles, as well as several schools in California and beyond. Scullion says naming a San Francisco street after Huerta would be a fitting tribute for her upcoming 90th birthday. (April 10, Huerta’s birthday, is Dolores Huerta Day in California.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Renaming South Van Ness seems like a win for everyone,” Scullion says. “The mayor and supervisors can have a chance to shine a spotlight on someone who exemplifies the spirit of San Francisco, the neighborhood and city get a constant reminder of a role model, and Ms. Huerta can be given a birthday gift acknowledging her contributions and sacrifices.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The petition comes at a time when the city of San Francisco has \u003ca href=\"https://sfgov.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=F&ID=6652905&GUID=6042BF04-6B7C-4319-A442-E535F3E9F012\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">legislation\u003c/a> in place to increase the representation of women on the city’s street names, public buildings, and public art by 30 percent before the end of 2020.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the race to meet the legislative requirements, it seems unlikely that the street name change, if it comes to pass, will happen in time for Huerta’s birthday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://sfpublicworks.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">San Francisco Department of Public Works\u003c/a> spokeswoman Rachel Gordon says street name changes involve getting a groundswell of community buy-in before her department begins its in-depth review process, and then potentially sends the request on to the board of supervisors and mayor for approval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The ones that succeed are the ones where there is a lot of community outreach,” Rosen says. “And the ones where there are not a lot of properties on the street.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An \u003ca href=\"https://sfpublicworks.org/services/establishing-street-names\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">online Department of Public Works information sheet\u003c/a> about the process mentions the need for property owners to be on board with the potential street name change: “If a member of the public initiates the request, they must present their petition to Public Works with signatures from property owners whose lots are abutting the subject street. The number of signatures must indicate a very strong majority in favor of the change.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
