The Los Angeles County Labor Federation is investigating the recent leak of a racially charged conversation that sent political shockwaves reaching all the way to the White House and sparking local protests for the involved city councilors to resign.

The taped conversation—which reportedly happened at an office of the Labor Federation in October 2021—captured LA City Council President Nury Martinez, City Councilmen Gil Cedillo and Kevin de León, and the federation’s President Ron Herrera candidly discussing the controversial redistricting process and how to keep Latino control when the maps were redrawn.
